Denise Richards Displays Fresh Bruising Amid Ongoing Divorce and Allegations

Actress Denise Richards was seen leaving a store with noticeable bruising around her right eye and a scrape under her chin, while appearing subdued during her outing in Calabasas. Although some sources claimed the bruising was due to lighting, she has recently undergone cosmetic procedures such as PRP injections and micro-needling, which can cause temporary skin changes.

Richards, 54, who is currently embroiled in a contentious divorce from Aaron Phypers, 52, has an active restraining order against him. She previously accused him of domestic violence, alleging she was physically assaulted multiple times throughout their relationship, including choking, slapping, and threatening her life. In court documents, she also accused him of violating the restraining order by stealing her private images and asked for their return.

Phypers called police on Sunday after Richards reportedly arrived unannounced at his family’s home. Dispatch audio suggests he expressed fears for his parents’ safety when she showed up, pounding on the door and demanding they leave. He withdrew from the scene through a side door, while a family member temporarily detained her vehicle until authorities arrived.

The pair married in 2018, following Richards’ previous marriage to Charlie Sheen. She has three children, including two daughters with Sheen and an adopted daughter. Throughout the divorce proceedings, Richards has maintained her allegations of abuse and requested restrictions on Phypers’s access to her electronic devices and content.

Phypers has denied all accusations, claiming Richards had an affair with her coach Rudy Reyes and suffers from Vicodin addiction. The couple’s divorce continues to attract public and media attention amid their bitter disputes. No charges or arrests have been made related to the incidents.
