So, here’s the twist nobody saw coming: When Denise Richards married Aaron Phypers, her ex-husband, Charlie Sheen, made the guest list. Yep, the identical Sheen from their famously turbulent past. But Richards had a surprising reason for extending the olive branch—or wedding invite. It wasn’t about rekindling old sparks; it was about their kids.
“Regardless of what’s gone down with Charlie and me, I invite him to do every part he has to do with the youngsters,” Denise said on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The couple’s divorce was drama-filled, but she’s about keeping the family vibe positive for his or her daughters, Sam and Lola. No messy past goes to mess with that.
Denise and Charlie’s relationship has seen some Wild Things. Their divorce got here with its share of headlines, legal skirmishes, and really public ups and downs. But Denise made it clear that the youngsters come first. “Whatever is happening with a pair, the kids shouldn’t be aware about it,” she told People.
And here’s the kicker: Denise was so chill about Charlie’s invite that she didn’t even care who he brought along. “Even when he did bring a prostitute as his date, I wouldn’t care,” she said with a shrug on RHOBH. “It’s just, it’s what it’s.” That’s next-level co-parenting goals—or a reality TV mic-drop moment.
Her wedding to Aaron Phypers, a wellness practitioner, was an intimate Malibu affair last fall. The actress gushed about her recent husband, calling their relationship “amazing.” She praised him for moving into her life—three daughters, ex-husband, and all. “For him to embrace a single woman with [three] daughters and an ex-husband with a splendidly colourful past, it’s loads. That made me fall in love with him much more.”
Aaron has taken the stepdad role in stride, mixing into the Richards-Sheen circus like a professional. Denise’s daughters appear to have found an amazing father figure in him, which only adds to the feel-good vibes of their union.
As for Charlie? The Two and a Half Men star kept things classy, wishing Denise and Aaron “nothing but happiness” in an Entertainment Tonight interview.
Denise and Charlie have come a great distance, from messy divorces to heartfelt reunions. And while their history could be “splendidly colourful,” this moment was all about moving forward—and proving that some bonds are more robust than the chaos.
