Hollywood star Denise Richards is reportedly furious and blindsided after her ex-husband Aaron Phypers made shocking financial demands, requesting she hand over $150,000 while claiming he's facing homelessness.
The former couple, who finalized their divorce in 2018 after just four months of marriage, are now embroiled in another bitter legal dispute that has left the actress reeling.
The Shocking Financial Demands
According to court documents obtained by DailyMail.com, Phypers has filed legal papers demanding Richards provide him with substantial financial support, including:
- A lump sum payment of $150,000
- Monthly spousal support payments
- Legal fees coverage for their ongoing court battles
What makes these demands particularly surprising is Phypers' claim that he's currently facing homelessness and struggling financially, despite the couple's brief marriage ending years ago.
A History of Legal Battles
This isn't the first time the former couple has found themselves in court. Their divorce proceedings were notably contentious, and they've continued to have legal disputes in the years since their separation.
Richards, best known for her roles in "Wild Things" and as a Bond girl, has maintained a successful acting career while raising her children. Sources close to the actress say she's stunned by the audacity of her ex-husband's latest demands.
The Reality Star's Response
Insiders reveal that Richards, who also stars in "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," is fighting the demands vigorously. Her legal team is expected to argue that Phypers' claims lack merit, particularly given the short duration of their marriage and the time that has passed since their divorce.
The case highlights the ongoing financial complexities that can plague celebrity divorces, even years after the papers have been signed and the relationships have ended.
As the legal battle continues, fans of the actress are watching closely to see how this dramatic chapter in Richards' personal life unfolds.
