On the 4th of July Denise posted a sexy swimsuit image on the beach.

The last time she shared an image with Aaron on Instagram was in April. 

Earlier this year she has opened up about her relationship with ex-husband Charlie Sheen. 

The actress was on the Whine Down with Jenna Kramer podcast when shared the two former spouses do not communicate much.

The former couple, who were married from 2002 to 2006, had their own ideas about how to bring up their girls.

‘Truthfully, it wasn’t co-parenting,’ the actress explained to the One Tree Hill alum. ‘I parent my way. He parents his way, and there was no co-parenting.’

Struggling to describe the dynamic with the Two and a Half Men star, 59, she said, ‘I have kids with him, and I’m not really — I’m friendly with Charlie, but I wish we were friends,’ she said.

The Paper Empire star revealed she also wished ‘that we could talk all the time and be able to be there really for each other with our girls. But that’s just not the relationship we have.’

Richards has opened up about how she and ex Charlie Sheen, 59 have brought up their two children. ‘I parent my way. He parents his way, and there was no co-parenting,’ she said

‘Maybe one day. But, I mean right now, there’s nothing. There’s no discord between he and I, which is great.’

‘I was always an advocate of wanting everything to be great and be friends and blend the family because he had two boys with his wife after me,’ The Bold and The Beautiful star maintained, adding, ‘I just didn’t want the girls to feel like they had to choose sides.’

When the girls were little, Richards said she put up a good front for her children, in spite of their father’s struggle with drugs and the law, including charges of domestic assault. ‘I never talked bad about him in front of the kids, and that’s hard to do — to hold your tongue and not say certain things at times,’ the World Is Not Enough actress said.

‘I don’t know if I did a disservice to them with that as well because now that they’re older, they’re discovering things that they didn’t know.’

The Bookie actor revealed in 2015 that he had been diagnosed with HIV several years before, but thanks to retroviral drugs, the virus is undetectable. 

The Mad Families star has been sober since 2017, revealing that being too drunk to drive one of his daughters to an appointment was the final straw for him. 

Sheen credits that decision with making him a better father to all of his children.
