You know you’re really famous when you can dress up as yourself for Halloween.

At 54, Denise Richards used the spooky holiday to pay tribute to her modelling days.

The Wild Things star, who first appeared in America’s most famous adult magazine 20 years ago, rocked a black bodysuit with matching ears.

In photos shared on social media, she completed the costume with a pair of white cuffs and a black-and-white bow-tie collar.

Highlights
  • Denise Richards celebrated Halloween by revisiting the early days of her modeling career.
  • The star posed for America's famous adult magazine in 2004, months after giving birth to daughter.
  • Her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, was recently arrested following Denise’s allegations of domestic violence.

    For the Bahamas shoot, she was accompanied by her newborn and her parents.

    “I didn’t have to show anything I didn’t want to,” Denise recalled during an interview with Jay Leno.

    The magazine, founded in 1953 by Hugh Hefner, had approached her several times about posing before she eventually agreed.

    “This time I figured I might as well do it before they never approach me again,” she said. “He [Charlie Sheen] was really cool about it and helped me pick out the pictures.”

    Denise and the Two and a Half Men actor were married between 2002 and 2006. They have two daughters: Sami and Lola. The Bold and the Beautiful actress also has a third daughter, Eloise, whom she adopted.

    Denise’s post comes ahead of her return to court on a request for a permanent restraining order against her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers.

    The star testified last month against her second husband, alleging repeated physical and verbal violence, including being struck in the face.

    She claimed that Aaron’s behavior became “very volatile” and aggressive toward her in May shortly after she had undergone multiple cosmetic procedures.

    “The fact that he did that to me five hours after coming out of a seven-hour surgery … made me feel a lot of things. Scared and vulnerable. I couldn’t walk by myself,” she testified.

    Denise accused Aaron of grabbing her by her arms while she was recovering from her surgeries and going through her devices while she was sleeping.

    She further claimed her estranged husband yelled at her and called her derogatory names.

    “Once he found out I was texting another man, he would flip it and call me a cheating w**re and a c**t and a lying b**h and he would make it about that.

    “He grabbed my arms. I was three weeks out of a breast augmentation, lipo and the face lift. I was feeling extremely vulnerable and in pain.”

    Denise filed for divorce from the actor in July. Days later, her request for a temporary restraining order against him was granted.

    Aaron was reportedly arrested last month on spousal ab*se charges. He is currently out on bail after posting his $200,000 bond.

    The actress and model testified that she suffered domestic violence throughout their seven-year relationship, alleging that Aaron frequently squeezed her arms, slapped her, slammed her head into the bathroom towel rack, and threatened to k*ll her.

    She said her then-husband, Charlie Sheen, helped her “pick out the pictures”

    She said that after violent episodes, he would cry, beg her to stay, and promise to get help—promises she claims he never followed through on.

    The 54-year-old claimed that her husband threatened to break her jaw and had caused her at least three concussions.

    Aaron has strongly denied all allegations, calling them “completely false and deeply hurtful,” and asserting that Denise “bruises easily.” 

    He further claimed Denise hit him, scratched him, and smashed his phone.

    “I didn’t have to show anything I didn’t want to,” Denise said of the photoshoot

    Aaron has also filed a petition claiming he’s out of money after Denise allegedly “cut off” access to their joint bank account, as per The Post.

    According to divorce filings, Aaron requested half of the earnings from Denise’s subscription-based adult platform, claiming he holds “the intellectual property rights to most, if not all, of the pictures that are in use on her page” because he took them.

    He claimed that the mom of three earns between $200,000 and $300,000 per month on the platform, which she began creating content for in 2022.

    In his declaration, the actor stated that he’s “about to be evicted” and that he’s “out of money and financially desperate.”
