Denise Richards is reflecting on her past with ex-husband Charlie Sheen — and her relationship with his and ex-wife Brooke Mueller’s twin sons.
Back in 2013, Richards, 54, took in Bob and Max, now 15, when Mueller lost custody due to substance abuse issues. “I’m grateful we were able to help them during that time,” Richards told People in an interview published Wednesday, February 19.
Richards — who shares daughters Sami, 20, and Lola, 19, with Sheen, 59 — noted that she welcomes her ex’s kids with open arms. (Richards is also mom to Eloise, 13, whom she adopted in 2011.)
“Charlie is always invited to holiday dinners,” Richards said. “There’s always an open door and that goes for Brooke and the boys as well. I’m always the more the merrier. I want everyone to get along and everyone to be peaceful.”
Denise Richards’ new reality show will include plenty of surprises — including an appearance from her ex-husband, Charlie Sheen. “Nobody has ever seen Charlie and I after our divorce sitting in a room talking,” Richards, 54, revealed on the Tuesday, February 18, episode of Bravo’s “Hot Mic” podcast. “I think that’s one of the things […]
Richards and Sheen, who wed in 2002, finalized their divorce in 2006. Richards has since moved on with Aaron Phypers, whom she exchanged vows with in 2018.
Following his relationship with Richards, Sheen tied the knot with Mueller in 2008. The pair split in 2010 and finalized their divorce one year later. In 2014, Sheen got engaged to Brett Rossi but split from her later that year.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum is now sharing a glimpse of her coparenting relationship with Sheen in her new reality show, Denise Richards and Her Wild Things, which also follows her life with Phypers.
“Nobody has ever seen Charlie and I after our divorce sitting in a room talking,” Richards revealed on the Tuesday, February 18, episode of Bravo’s “Hot Mic” podcast. “I think that’s one of the things that I love that we were able to capture was us having that moment of sharing that.”
Charlie Sheen‘s exes Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller are seemingly teaming up on a new project. Richards, 53, and Muller, 46, were spotted filming scenes for a TV show on Sunday, July 28. Photos published by Page Six showed the pair with their families as they enjoyed a potluck-style picnic in Malibu. Richards wore a […]
Richards noted that she and Sheen “still joke around with each other” and “can have a sense of humor about all the s— we went through.” She added, “It’s so bad that we have to laugh.”
“The thing is people have seen in the tabloids over the years obviously all the turmoil and then people would hear we went on vacation with the girls together or we were having dinner or stuff like that,” Richards explained. “It was always to keep a family unit when we could for the girls.”
As for her new reality show, Richards previously explained that she had conversations with her older daughters about putting their lives on display because she “wanted to make sure that that was something that they wanted to do because they didn’t have to be part of it.”
“It was a process, but they were on board,” she exclusively told Us Weekly in December 2024. “I’m not perfect and they will see I make mistakes. Our family is not perfect by any means, but hopefully they can relate to some things that our family goes through too.”
Denise Richards and Her Wild Things premieres on Bravo Tuesday, March 4, following a new episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
