Denise Richards Accuses Ex Aaron Phypers of Leaking Nude Photos in Ongoing Divorce Case

Denise Richards has returned to court to demand that her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, return her laptop, cell phones, and all private materials, including nude photos and text messages that he allegedly stole and leaked to the media. Richards accuses Phypers of repeatedly violating a temporary restraining order by disseminating her private information to multiple organizations and causing her extreme distress. The court had previously granted Richards a restraining order after allegations of abuse, but did not restrict Phypers' access to her devices, which Richards now seeks to rectify. Phypers admitted in a media interview to going through Richards' texts and disclosed private photos and messages, including claims of an affair with her Special Forces co-star Rudy Reyes, which Richards has neither confirmed nor denied but which adds complexity to the divorce proceedings. Following the leaks, Richards’ legal team sent Phypers warnings to stop sharing her private information, but she contends that he continues to violate the court order. The ongoing legal battle highlights the contentious and public nature of their divorce, with Richards seeking further judicial intervention to protect her privacy and property.
