Denise Richards and Aaron Phypers are heading for divorce after six years of marriage.
The actress’ husband filed for divorce on Monday July 7, according to court documents first reported by TMZ. Phypers cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the pair’s split and listed July 4 as their separation date.
The court documents further indicate that Phypers, an actor-turned-businessman who founded a holistic healing center in California, is additionally seeking spousal support from Richards and has asked to keep their assets and debts separate.
