Denise Richards didn’t like being on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The Bold and the Beautiful alum didn’t want to face the cameras, especially when confronted by her enemies. The actress has since had a change of heart. She returned to Bravo with a new show called Denise Richards and Her Wild Things, which centers around her family.
Bravo Comeback
Fans remember when Richard infamously broke the fourth wall on Season 10 of RHOBH. She shouted “Bravo, Bravo, Bravo” when confronted by the rumors of herself and Brandi Glanville. Richards left the reality show later that season. She briefly returned over the years. However, she was always on the outs with her former castmates. Richards is returning to the network with a reality show of her own.
She’s more comfortable about being in front of the cameras this time around. An insider told The U.S. Sun the reason behind Richards’ shocking return to the Bravo network. She needed money after her ex-husband Charlie Sheen’s child support payments stopped. A judge ruled that he didn’t need to pay child support for their two daughters, Sami, 20, and Lola, 19. Both girls are over 18 years of age.
“The only reason she’s doing the reality show is the same reason she’s doing her OnlyFans – she needs the money,” the source told The U.S. Sun. “She never in a million years thought Charlie would file to stop paying child support, and she was blindsided when the court ruled against her.”
Sheen tried to stop child support payments when their daughters were just 13 and 14. Richards left RHOBH to pursue other projects. She still makes money from acting, but not as much as she used to. This time around, she was willing to film with her former RHOBH castmates for a good reason. “Denise only filmed it for a paycheck,” the insider noted.

In Control
Richards couldn’t be more excited about this decision. The insider revealed that she gets to call the shots on this new show. She is able to “control her own narrative and be the author of her own story.” While on RHOBH, she was part of a cast and was “unable to show who she truly is.” She had to deal with the drama.
Richards and her three daughters will appear on the new show along with her husband, Aaron Phypers. She also confirmed that Sheen would appear in an episode. Things are still tense between the exes. The source revealed that “Charlie is pitting the girls against their mother, which is horrible.”
But Richards is ready to share her not-so-glamorous life. She wants to show Bravo fans what they’ve been missing. Richards gets raw and candid about the “complexities of blended life with her daughters and new husband, Aaron,” the synopsis reads. Denise Richards and Her Wild Things premiered on Bravo on Tuesday, March 4. New episodes are available to stream on Peacock.
