Denise Richards, the Bond girl who swapped martinis for OnlyFans subscriptions, has never met a reinvention she did not like. From Hollywood red carpets to The Real Housewives confessionals, Richards has mastered the art of high-gloss drama and even higher price tags. So Aaron Phypers’ divorce filing, with its sharp focus on her spending, feels perfectly on brand for a woman who can turn life’s lemons into designer candles and call it self-care.

As Denise Richards plays leading lady in life, Aaron Phypers delivers court receipts so wild they are destined for the glittering, messy lore of reality TV legend.

Aaron Phypers’ court documents pulled no punches, revealing monthly expenses that would make a Kardashian blush. The alleged breakdown? $25,000 on food, $20,000 on clothing, $15,000 each for entertainment and dining out, plus $10,000 for groceries and $8,000 in utilities, as per TMZ. Even laundry racks up $5,000. This is not just spending; it is practically a luxury franchise, and Denise Richards, it seems, is its showrunner, casting receipts as her supporting cast.

While Denise Richards’ empire reportedly pulls in $250,000 monthly from TV gigs, brand deals, and her OnlyFans glow-up, Aaron Phypers claims his post-Quantum 360 Club reality looks far grimmer. His wellness business shuttered in 2024, and he says he has had no income since. The cherry on top? He alleges that not a cent was set aside for insurance, savings, or charity. Their separation date of July 4 feels poetic: fireworks, champagne, and now, legal filings.

As Denise Richards perfects her brand of high-gloss drama, Aaron Phypers’ filing shifts gears, setting the stage for a showdown over dollars, history, and the messiest kind of shared assets.

Aaron Phypers is now seeking a 50/50 split of their shared Smoke & Mirrors Entertainment, a name that feels almost prophetic amid their unraveling. Denise Richards has yet to address his claims, but with a romance that started as a whirlwind in 2018 and now implodes in public view, fans are watching like it is their favorite guilty-pleasure series, plot twists, cliffhangers, and all.

While Denise Richards perfects her self-care glow for Instagram, Aaron Phypers frames their shared past as a cautionary tale of excess. Off-screen, Richards’ resume stretches from soap operas to The Real Housewives drama and even a turn as Ross Geller’s cousin on Friends, opposite David Schwimmer. As yet another headline unfolds, one thing is clear: Richards knows how to turn life’s messiest moments into must-watch material.
