Denise Richards six-year marriage to Aaron Phypers is officially circling the drain. On July 7, Phypers filed for divorce from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, citing the usual Hollywood excuse: irreconcilable differences. While she might have once sworn off divorce for good, it looks like her second shot at her forever love is ending in court papers. And potentially a big fat spousal support bill.
Phypers listed their date of separation as July 4 because nothing says “independence” like ditching your reality star wife with a six-figure lifestyle. And you read that right. Their reported monthly expenses add up to $105,000.
Here’s where it gets messy. While Denise Richards was posting bikini pics for the Fourth of July, her soon-to-be ex was busy prepping legal documents. And aiming straight for her bank account. He’s asking for spousal support and considering Denise’s lucrative OnlyFans gig and steady Bravo income. It looks like she might be the one footing the bill for a man who couldn’t pay off his business loan.
Aaron Phypers isn’t just walking away from this marriage. He’s dragging along a trail of lawsuits. His “wellness” company, Quantum Epigenetics Consulting, is knee-deep in a $228,000 fraud case after defaulting on a loan that started with $190,000 and snowballed with interest, according to Page Six.
Denise Richards Hit By Aaron Financial Scandals, Lawsuits
Though Denise Richards’ name isn’t on the paperwork, creditors are coming for her wallet, too. Court documents even suggest garnishing her wages, including the $2 million she snags every month on Only Fans.
As if one lawsuit wasn’t enough, Phypers is also being sued by the grieving husband of a cancer patient who claims Aaron promised a miracle stem-cell cure. Then he failed to follow through with a promised $63,000 refund when it didn’t work.
Despite their fairy-tale wedding back in 2018 and all the public affirmations that they’d never split. Even if they “hated each other”. Now it looks like reality (and some seriously aggressive debt collectors) had other plans.
“It’s not easy being married to me,” the TV personality said on a March episode of her Bravo series, “Denise Richards & Her Wild Things,” per People. “It is not, and she said it!” Phypers chimed in. “But this is it. I’m done.”
Denise Richards thought she’d never get divorced again. Aaron Phypers had other plans. Between the lawsuits, the spousal support demands, and the creditors sniffing around her paychecks, this divorce could turn into an all-out financial bloodbath.
If he plays his cards right (and shady enough), he might just waltz away with a chunk of her OnlyFans fortune and leave Denise paying for his next quantum retreat. She may be wild, but he’s the one who could take her straight to the cleaners.
