Denise Richards Reacts to 5-Year Restraining Order Against Ex Aaron Phypers

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Denise Richards spoke out about her divorce on Sunday for the first time since a judge granted her a five-year restraining order from her estranged second husband Aaron Phypers.

‘[I’m] good. It’s a process. I have such a great support system. Thank you so much,’ the 54-year-old Bond Girl said during the Bravo2Bravo panel at BravoCon in Las Vegas.

‘Being in the tabloids [is] very daunting. When you first have to deal with it, it’s very hard…it’s different because on the reality shows, our personal life is out there. On reality, you can’t pretend it’s not happening.’

On November 7, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mark Juhas ordered the unemployed 52-year-old to stay away from Richards, stop threatening/harassing her, stop sharing nude photos of her and surrender any firearms to police after she accused him of physical abuse.

Phypers (born Cameron) has denied ever physically harming the Illinois-born beauty, but he was arrested on October 17 and charged with two felony counts of injuring a spouse (back in 2022) and two felony counts of dissuading a witness by force or threat.

The Canadian-American ex-CEO – who has ‘no income’ – filed for divorce from Richards on July 7 after six years of marriage and requested spousal support of around $105K/month.

The Her Wild Things producer-star wants Phypers to pay her legal expenses and any expenses related to the alleged abuse, and she requested that he attend a 52-week batterer intervention program.

The ex-couple originally began dating in December 2017 before the USC grad’s divorce from Desperate Housewives alum Nicollette Sheridan was finalized in 2018.

Richards has two daughters – Sami, 21; and Lola, 20 – from her two-year marriage to first ex-husband Charlie Sheen, which acrimoniously ended in 2006.

The Riff Raff executive producer adopted 14-year-old daughter Eloise Joni Richards in 2011 as a single parent.

Richards will next appear on the 15th season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which premieres December 4 on Bravo.

The Riff Raff executive producer confirmed during the ‘Bravo Bravo F’ing Bravo’ Q&A last Saturday: ‘I did a couple episodes coming up. [It’s] just an appearance, not even a “friend of”‘

When asked if she was negotiating with execs to return to the franchise as a full-time Housewife, Richards teased: ‘We’re talking about things’
