    Denise Richards has accused Aaron Phypers of having one of her dogs put to sleep

    The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star turned up to the home in Calabasas, California where her estranged husband - who she has accused of domestic abuse - lives with his parents and brother on Sunday (03.08.25) in order to get one of her pets, but police were called amid her confrontation with his family


    Denise has a restraining order in place which means Aaron can't be within 100 yards of her, and sources told TMZ that when she showed up unannounced and began banging on a back door, he immediately left because he was concerned about the legal measures in place.

    Aaron's parents eventually let Denise inside, where she is said to have barged in and demanded the dog, screaming at the couple and allegedly "swinging at" the actor's brother and "throwing mail" at him.

    Police arrived, and though Aaron's family were "very shaken" and "terrified", they ultimately concluded no crime had been committed and no arrests were made, and Denise's attorney insisted she had done nothing wrong.

    Lawyer Brett Berman told TMZ: "Ms. Richards did not violate a restraining order.

    "On August 3, 2025, after confirming that Mr. Phypers was not present in her home, Ms. Richards entered the home to retrieve her dogs after learning that Mr. Phypers had put down one of her other dogs without her knowledge or permission."

    But Aaron, 52, insisted the statement was "absolutely false".

    He hit back: "Absolutely false, not true on both accusations. Denise's attorney has consistently struck out in pursuit of the truth. There is a difference between telling the truth and trying to protect your client.

    "Denise's actions are wilfully intentional in the slander and destruction of what is left of a family. This is after Denise chose to carry on an adulterous affair - after being caught not once, not twice, but three times.

    "Having the title of attorney or being a celebrity does not put you above the law. It does not give you the right to humiliate others for the sake of your interests. Both of these actions have been readily apparent here in the last couple of weeks."

    Aaron recently denied Denise's allegations against him and insisted she had "physically assaulted" him and destroyed his phone.

    He told Us Weekly: "I absolutely deny the false allegations that I violated the restraining order or stole Denise's laptop or cell phones.

    "These claims are not only untrue - they are being weaponised to damage my reputation and distract from the truth.

    "In reality, Denise took my phone without consent, physically assaulted me when I tried to retrieve it, and later I discovered it smashed and hidden in a black trash bag inside the recycling bin."
