Denise Richards Says She Will ‘Never Get Divorced’ from Husband Aaron Phypers — ‘Even if We Hate Each Other’
Denise Richards revealed her outlook on divorce 12 years after her marriage to Charlie Sheen ended on the premiere of ‘Denise Richards & Her Wild Things’
Denise Richards is in her marriage for the long haul.
On the premiere of Denise Richards & Her Wild Things, the actress, 54, met up with her former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills castmate Camille Grammer. As the two drove around L.A., they reminisced on their intertwined past.
“Camille Grammer and I, we first met over twenty years ago,” Denise told cameras. “She was married to her ex, Kelsey [Grammer], and I was married to Charlie [Sheen]. At the time, her husband and Charlie, they would always be up against each other at every single award show because Frazier and Two and a Half Men were on at the same time.”
“So we have the exes and the Housewives together,” she added.

When Camille reflected on her 14-year marriage to the Emmy-winning actor, which ended in 2011, she said, “I felt like my whole world fell apart.” Denise, who was married to Sheen from 2002 until 2006 (the pair also share daughters Sami and Lola), noted that she understood exactly what Camille went through.
“The judgment from other people and being made out to be this awful woman,” Denise noted of public breakups.
“We get tossed to the curb,” Camille noted and Denise then declared: “I’ll never get divorce, even if we hate each other.”
In 2018, Denise and her current husband Aaron Phypers tied the knot in a last-minute ceremony. In her confessional, they both agreed that splitting up is not in their future.
“It’s not easy being married to me,” she acknowledged, to which Aaron replied, “It is not, and she said it!”
“But this is it. I’m done,” he continued.
“Yeah, I’m never getting divorced again. Even if we hate each other, I’m not gonna f—ing get divorced,” Denise reiterated.
“No, we’ll just have different homes or something,” Aaron explained. “But we’re not gonna hate each other.”
“We have enough homes, but yes, I agree,” Denise said.
Earlier in the episode, she shared a breakdown of her family’s living situation, which includes a total of four homes and is admittedly “a little confusing.”
“I don’t live in our house,” she revealed. “Aaron’s mom and dad and his brother, they were gonna stay for a few months; It’s been over three years.”
“I needed some space, so I rented a townhouse, and then I rented another one and another one,” she explained. “So I have three of them. One’s an office, one’s a studio, one’s for Lola and Eloise and for us to sleep in. And then when Aaron and I want privacy, then we sleep in the studio. So, we’re all over the place.”

Is Denise Richards Still Married to Aaron Phypers?

When we first met Aaron Phypers on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Denise Richards introduced him as her handsome new hubby who occasionally found himself being chased down by Big Pharma, but are the happy couple still married?
Since their Bravo introduction, we’ve watched the marriages of their RHOBH co-stars crumble one after another. However, Denise and Aaron aren’t going to be another statistic. They’re still going strong, and they plan on keeping it that way. Denise’s divorce from Charlie Sheen gave her enough drama to last a lifetime.
Denise and Charlie tied the knot in 2002 before she filed for divorce in 2005. At the time, she said their relationship had turned toxic. Today, they’re on good terms for the sake of their two daughters.
During the premiere episode of Denise Richards & Her Wild Things, Denise spoke to Camille Grammer about the difficulties of navigating a public divorce. They’ve both been down that rocky road.
“The judgment from other people and being made out to be this awful woman,” Denise said, to which Camille added, “We get tossed to the curb.”
With that in mind, Denise vowed to never get divorced from Aaron, and it turns out, he’s on the same page. Aaron was previously married to Nicolette Sheridan. That divorce wasn’t as big of a deal as Denise and Charlie’s, but still. Why go through the hassle?
“Yeah, I’m never getting divorced again. Even if we hate each other, I’m not gonna f*cking get divorced,” Denise told Aaron in a confessional.
“No, we’ll just have different homes or something,” Aaron said. “But we’re not gonna hate each other.”
Denise Richards & Her Wild Things airs every Tuesday at 9/8c on Bravo.
