In a dramatic escalation of their ongoing separation, Hollywood star Denise Richards has filed legal documents to formally vacate her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, from their luxurious Calabasas family home. The move comes just ahead of a court-ordered eviction, signalling a decisive end to their cohabitation.
The court documents, obtained by DailyMail.com, reveal Richards is seeking sole possession of the property, requesting that Phypers be legally removed. This legal manoeuvre is the latest development in what has become a contentious and public split between the former couple.
A Home Divided
The spacious California estate, which once served as the family's shared residence, has become the central battleground in their divorce proceedings. Richards' filing effectively accelerates the eviction process, ensuring Phypers must depart the premises imminently.
This action underscores the complete breakdown of their relationship, moving their disputes from private mediation into the public domain of the courtroom. Neighbours in the exclusive Calabasas enclave have reportedly been aware of the mounting tension behind the property's gates.
The Backstory of a Breakup
Richards and Phypers, who married in 2018, have been the subject of intense media scrutiny since rumours of their separation began to surface. Their relationship, which initially seemed like a stable union following Richards' previous high-profile marriages, has unfortunately followed a similar trajectory into complex legal disputes.
The filing to vacate is a common yet powerful legal tool used to establish clear living arrangements during a divorce, preventing further conflict and establishing boundaries. For a celebrity of Richards' stature, it also serves to protect her privacy and that of her family during an undoubtedly difficult time.
As the situation develops, all eyes will be on the Los Angeles County court to see how Phypers responds to this latest legal challenge and what the final outcome will be for the ownership of the multi-million dollar property.
