Denise Richards has publicly addressed swirling rumours about infidelity during her marriage to Aaron Phypers, offering a candid take on the speculation that surrounded their split.
The Hollywood actress, known for her roles in Wild Things and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, dismissed claims that cheating played a role in their divorce, which was finalised in 2023 after four years of marriage.
Denise Sets the Record Straight
In a recent interview, Richards clarified that their separation was not due to any betrayal but rather the challenges of maintaining a relationship under public scrutiny. "People love to assume the worst," she said. "But sometimes, things just don’t work out."
The couple, who tied the knot in 2018, had faced persistent tabloid rumours about Phypers' alleged unfaithfulness. However, Richards insisted that their split was amicable and rooted in personal growth rather than scandal.
A Private Matter Made Public
Richards, who shares three children—two adopted with Phypers—emphasised the difficulty of navigating divorce in the spotlight. "It’s hard enough going through something like this privately," she admitted. "But when every detail is dissected, it adds another layer of pain."
Despite the rumours, she maintained respect for her ex-husband, describing him as a "great father" and expressing hope for a peaceful co-parenting relationship.
Moving Forward
Now focused on her career and family, Richards is determined to put the past behind her. "Life goes on," she said. "I’m grateful for my kids and the opportunities ahead."
Fans have praised her honesty, with many commending her for handling the situation with grace amid relentless media speculation.
