Overview

• Aaron Phypers filed for divorce from Denise Richards in Los Angeles on July 7, citing irreconcilable differences.
• He designated July 4 as their official separation date, marking the end of their nearly seven-year marriage.
• The filing came one day after Sami Sheen posted a TikTok video advising followers to break off toxic relationships.
• Court documents note that the couple has no minor children together and list Richards’s adopted daughter Eloise as Phypers’s stepchild.
• The coincidental timing of the TikTok and the divorce filing has drawn attention to the interplay between celebrity social-media presence and private family dynamics.
