Denise Richards Seeks Abuse Testimony From Aaron Phypers, His Mother

Denise Richards is seeking to make her temporary restraining order against her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, permanent amid their ongoing divorce, alleging severe physical abuse throughout their relationship. She has submitted a witness list for the upcoming court hearing that includes Aaron and his 84-year-old mother, Patricia Phypers, who is expected to testify about communications regarding the alleged abuse. Richards alleges multiple instances of violent behavior by Aaron, including choking, slapping, head slamming, threats to kill, and invasive hacking of her devices. Aaron denies all allegations, calling Richards a liar and stating he has never physically or emotionally abused her. The hearing is anticipated to be contentious, with Aaron ready to testify in his defense, asserting he has nothing to hide and that their divorce followed her alleged affair. Richards also plans to call three additional unidentified witnesses to support her claims.
