Denise Richards Seeks Spousal Support, Plans to Use RHOBH Footage in Protection Order Hearing

Her Sept. 3 court response asks that Aaron Phypers pay her legal fees and be barred from receiving support.

Overview

  • Richards’ Sept. 3 filing requests spousal support from Phypers, seeks to terminate the court’s ability to award him support, and asks that he cover her attorney fees while noting assets and debts are still being assessed.
  • Phypers’ July petition claims he has had no income since closing his Quantum 360 Club in 2024, alleges Richards earns over $250,000 monthly, and asks for support while listing household expenses at roughly $105,000 a month.
  • Ahead of a Sept. 8 hearing where she will seek a long-term protective order, Richards submitted an evidence list that includes a 2020 RHOBH clip of Phypers saying he would “crush” her hand, along with photos and texts; he continues to deny any abuse.
  • Richards has asserted in court papers that Phypers faces eviction from their Calabasas rental for unpaid rent and asked that he vacate so she can retrieve dogs and belongings without violating a temporary restraining order.
  • Both parties cite irreconcilable differences, report no minor children together, and dispute the separation date, with Richards listing it as “TBD” and Phypers stating July 4.
