Denise Richards<\/a>\u00a0her split from Aaron Phypers took an especially ugly turn when his father got involved \u2014 and she’s laying it all out in shocking detail.<\/p>\n

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills<\/a>\u00a0alum filed a restraining order request against her estranged husband on July 16, accusing him of years of physical and emotional abuse.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

The move came just days after Phypers, 51, – who has denied her claims<\/a> – filed for divorce, citing July 4 as their official date of separation and requesting spousal support from Richards, 54.<\/p>\n

But according to Denise, that same day marked a harrowing confrontation that left her fearing for her life.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In court documents obtained by DailyMail.com, Denise said she moved out of their shared home in late 2023 due to mounting marital issues <\/a>and relocated to a studio townhouse, where she told Phypers he was no longer welcome \u2014 a boundary she claims he repeatedly violated.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘On July 4, 2025, while Aaron was at the studio townhouse that I was occupying at the time, I told Aaron that his family had to move out of the family home,’ Denise stated. ‘Aaron became enraged. Over the course of nearly two hours, he got within two inches of my face and screamed degrading profanities, including calling me a \u2018c*** w****’ and a ‘piece of s***,”‘\u00a0Denise stated in her Request for Domestic Violence<\/a>\u00a0Retraining Order.<\/p>\n

Denise claimed Aaron’s father Steven Phypers joined in the July 4 blowup \u2014 yelling that he would tell the media she was a \u2018whore\u2019 and expose the contents of her phone; (Aaron’s mom, Aaron, and Steve Phypers pictured)<\/p>\n

She said he also ‘repeatedly grabbed my left arm tightly in an aggressive manner,’ and that despite her pleas for him to leave, he would calm down for a moment, only to explode again.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I was recovering from a sensitive surgery. Aaron\u2019s actions were scaring me to the point that… I was afraid that Aaron may kill me.’<\/p>\n

Denise, who is 5\u20194\u201d, noted that Aaron stands at 6\u20192\u201d and weighs over 200 pounds.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At one point during the July 4 encounter, she said, \u2018I repeatedly threatened to call the police, and Aaron screamed, \u201cFine, f***ing call the cops. They will never be able to do anything to me and I will kill everyone if they try.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n

Later that night \u2014 around 2:00 a.m. on July 5 \u2014 Denise said Phypers broke into a second townhouse across the alley and demanded her phone.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2018He squeezed my arm extremely tight and aggressively demanded I give him his phone. I grabbed my phone and told him I was calling 911. He said, \u201cI would like to see the cops take me away, I will blow everything up if they try.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n

Denise said he finally left when she was about to hit the call button, but not before yelling, \u2018You are going to disappear.\u2019<\/p>\n

The alleged threats continued that same day, when Denise claims Aaron returned with his father and once again screamed in her face.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Phypers responded to DailyMail.com’s request for comment, saying, ‘I want to address recent rumors and speculation that have surfaced regarding my relationship with my wife, Denise Richards.<\/p>\n

‘Let me be unequivocally clear: I have never physically or emotionally abused Denise \u2014 or anyone.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘These accusations are completely false and deeply hurtful. Denise and I, like many couples, have faced our share of challenges, but any suggestion of abuse is categorically untrue.<\/p>\n

‘I have always tried to approach our marriage with love, patience, and respect. I ask for privacy as we navigate personal matters, and I hope that the public and media will refrain from spreading harmful and baseless claims.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Denise Richards\u00a0her split from Aaron Phypers took an especially ugly turn when his father got involved \u2014 and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5793,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[97,3349,96,59,3348,478,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-5792","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-dailymail","tag-denise-richards","tag-entertainment","tag-gb","tag-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills","tag-tvshowbiz","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5792","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5792"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5792\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5793"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5792"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5792"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
