Returning Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Denise Richards is looking forward to a new start in the new year, and that means far away from her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers.
Aaron was issued a restraining order to keep away from the actress after she claimed DV on multiple occasions.
2025, a retrospect:
The Wild Things actress used her Instagram page to give her fans insight into her personal life. “Looking back at all the photos & videos I have of 2025. It feels like I’m looking at two different people & lived two different lives. Seeing a lot of your posts, many of you felt the same way.”
“I will never forget this year, one of the most painful years I’ve lived. The year of the snake🐍 A year of shedding, literally 😂thanks to Ben Talei (more on that I have some pics & videos), a year of letting go, truths being exposed. As painful as it is, I’m so grateful for the clarity. I shed a lot of tears and felt pain & betrayal I never knew existed.” (This comes from the woman who was with Charlie Sheen at his worst, for context.)
“I couldn’t have gotten through this year if it weren’t for my family, old & new friends, this community, those of you I work with, & @drbentalei & Dr. Robert Cohen who truly did so much for me. I’m so thankful you all got me through it.”
“Going to ComicCons this year & BravoCon was so humbling for me. Meeting all of you & hearing how much you’ve supported me throughout my career. I’m so grateful to all of you.”
Looking ahead:
Despite having an incredibly tough year, Denise showed gratitude for the positives. “I did have a lot of blessed, happy moments in 2025 & especially the last couple months.”
“I’m finally starting to feel like me again, only better. I’m looking forward to the year of the Horse. I feel very lucky that it starts on my birthday✨.”
“Happy New year to all of you & Happy new You to those of you that really went through it in 2025. Happy 2026!”
