Overview
- In a podcast interview on Tuesday, Oct. 13, Richards said she will never marry again while adding that she still wants a partner and hopes to fall in love without a legal marriage.
- Richards has accused Phypers of physical and emotional abuse and was granted a five-year restraining order by the Los Angeles Superior Court on Nov. 7, 2025.
- She told the podcast she discovered multiple alleged affairs and claims she unknowingly paid the salary and severance for a woman she says was an employee and alleged mistress of Phypers.
- Phypers has denied the abuse allegations; court records show he was arrested in October 2025 on spousal-abuse charges and was ordered in September 2025 to pay Richards more than $25,000 in sanctions.
- The couple’s divorce and related court disputes remain unresolved, Richards says the finalization will let her move on, and the new public claims could influence remaining legal and financial proceedings.
