Richards starred with Reyes in the third series of Special Forces: World's Toughest Test in 2023. The military instructor split from his gun instructor girlfriend Jade Struck, 25, earlier this year. In an interview with The Mail, Phypers said Richards had promised to break things off with Reyes, only to hook up with him the following month in a California hotel. That alleged rendezvous was the basis for their July showdown that signalled the end of their marriage.

"We've been together nine years and for her to do that and to lie to me consistently - I'm totally tired and drained." He said the relationship had been rocky for some time, aggravated by six house moves over the course of their relationship and dozens of pets under their care. He said Richards owned 58 dogs, two pot-bellied pigs, and an 'incontinent' Sphinx cat. The disgruntled ex also accused Richards of being addicted to vicodin and alcohol. But the breaking point came when Phypers said he discovered 107 messages between Richards and Reyes, some of which detailed hotel meet ups and included intimate photos. Furious TV bosses yell at us for pushing celebs too hard, admits Rudy Reyes as he reveals reason why NONE of the stars would pass day 1 of SAS training He told the publication: "I just had this feeling that something was off because her behavior had changed – she was being kind of cool to me. "I opened her phone – we both know each other's passwords - so I opened it up and then I went to her deleted texts and there were 107 of them between her and this guy. "I went through them and it just broke my heart." Following Phypers and Richards' row in July, the actress filed a lawsuit accusing him of physical and verbal abuse, including leaving her with a black eye. Phypers has vehemently denied the claims, telling US Weekly, "Let me be unequivocally clear: I have never physically or emotionally abused Denise — or anyone. "These accusations are completely false and deeply hurtful. Denise and I, like many couples, have faced our share of challenges, but any suggestion of abuse is categorically untrue. "I have always tried to approach our marriage with love, patience, and respect. I ask for privacy as we navigate personal matters, and I hope that the public and media will refrain from spreading harmful and baseless claims.' The Sun has contacted representatives for Richards and Reyes for comment. 5 Reyes is currently on screens in the UK in Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins Credit: PA 5 Richards has accused Phypers of emotional and physical abuse, which he has denied Credit: Getty

Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... There are thousands of shows in Edinburgh this month. Please tell us why we should come and see yours. There is no way to answer this question without sounding like an egomaniac. That said, it's very funny. If you know me from Broadway, or American TV shows, or my Melania Trump impression, you will be quite surprised and, dare I say, thrilled by this side of me. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad What will we learn from your show that we didn't know before? Many, many deeply embarrassing personal stories. Who or what was the biggest inspiration for your show? My own questionable life. What's the best review you've ever had, and the worst? The best I've had was here regarding my show: 'For, in the end, Laura Benanti has good, old-fashioned star power. It shines from every pore, pulling the audience into every word, every note, every wink. The show will receive standing ovations at every performance, and deserves every last one.' The worst was 'As I smelled the stench wafting from the stage, I realised those actors have mothers. And I pitied them.' To this day, I wonder if they pitied us, our mothers, or both. Who or what are you most excited about seeing this year? Rosie O'Donnell's show was beautiful and hilarious. I loved Cat Cohen's show. I also loved Mario the Maker Magician and Cadel. I'm excited to see Garry Starr: Classic Penguins. Tell us something about you that would surprise people. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad I have been married three times. Just like every little girl dreams. What are the best and worst things that have happened to you at a festival? Doing this show to enthusiastic, sold-out audiences has been a dream. Nothing bad has happened yet, but there is still time, and you haven't reviewed my show yet. What's the first thing you do in the morning and the last thing you do at night? Wake up. Go to sleep. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Thanks for the interview! We'd like to buy you a drink. Where are we going and what are we drinking? You are coming to my flat to babysit my kids and I am drinking a vodka martini in the bath while I pretend not to hear them yelling at you.
