Denise Richards Channels Playboy in Halloween Costume Amid Ongoing Divorce Drama

Los Angeles, CA – Denise Richards, a 54-year-old actress and reality TV star, flaunted her Playboy past this Halloween with a striking costume. She shared images on social media, wearing a sleek black bodysuit and matching ears, completing her look with white cuffs and a black-and-white bow-tie collar.

Richards, known for her role in “Wild Things,” posed nude for Playboy back in December 2004, shortly after giving birth. In a past interview with Jay Leno, she revealed that her newborn accompanied her to the Bahamas for the photoshoot. “I said, you better find me some fricken bottoms,” she recalled, describing how the stylist had to get creative with the wardrobe.

As she embraced the Halloween spirit, Richards is also navigating serious personal challenges. She is currently involved in a contentious divorce from her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, amid ongoing court proceedings. On July 17, she was granted a temporary restraining order against Phypers, which she is seeking to make permanent.

During her court testimony last month, Richards teared up as she recounted instances of alleged physical and emotional abuse, including one incident after she underwent major cosmetic surgery at the Four Seasons hotel.

“That is when I really, really knew that our marriage was over…” Richards stated, explaining how Phypers’ alleged violent behavior escalated following her surgeries. “I couldn’t walk by myself,” she added, describing her vulnerability during recovery.

Richards alleged that Phypers would verbally abuse her and physically attack her, causing multiple injuries throughout their relationship. In legal documents, she claimed he regularly threatened her and caused at least three concussions.

Recently, Phypers filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences and seeking spousal support from Richards, who is rumored to make $200,000 to $300,000 monthly from her OnlyFans account. He claims that their joint earnings should entitle him to a share of this income.

The ongoing disputes in their separation have raised significant public interest as both continue to navigate their tumultuous relationship.
