Celebrity Divorce: Denise Richards’ Estranged Husband Spotted Without Wedding Ring

Days after filing for divorce from actress Denise Richards, Aaron Phypers was seen out in Los Angeles without his wedding ring, signaling ongoing tension. The 52-year-old, who owns a wellness center, appeared somber during his errands, dressed casually in a black T-shirt and ripped jeans.

He visited a bank, stopped by a Wells Fargo branch, and later purchased a new iPhone at a Verizon store, allegedly indicating preparations for life post-divorce. Notably, Phypers was not wearing his wedding ring, further suggesting the breakdown of their marriage.

According to court documents, Phypers has no source of income since closing his Quantum 360 Club in 2024. He relies on Richards’ reported monthly income of $250,000, generated from OnlyFans, TV appearances, and brand endorsements, though nearly half of that—$105,000—is allocated to living expenses such as food, utilities, and maintenance. Court filings also stated that their combined phone bill amounts to $500 per month, raising questions about whether he plans to change his phone plan amidst their separation.

The couple, who married in September 2018 during a televised Beverly Hills wedding, announced their split earlier this month after almost seven years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.” The breakup comes amidst reports that their relationship had become toxic. Denise Richards has not publicly addressed the reasons behind the divorce.

Insiders revealed that ongoing fights and disagreements had marked their relationship, culminating in a recent heated argument over the weekend, after which Phypers decided to file for divorce. Meanwhile, Richards’ daughter Sami Sheen shared on TikTok her feelings about toxic relationships, stating she would tell her mother to end a damaging relationship and move forward.

The divorce marks a new chapter for both, with the personal struggles now playing out publicly.
