Who is Denise Richards and why did her husband created her OnlyFans empire and later filed for divorce
Denise Richards' OnlyFans empire, with the help from her husband
In her recent reality series Denise Richards and Her Wild Things, the 54-year-old actress opened up about the power she feels from being seen as a sex symbol in her fifties. She credited Phypers not only for his emotional support but for being hands-on behind the camera.
'He knows what men love,' Richards said in the show, adding that Phypers curated her content by choosing which photos would best resonate with subscribers. From outfit choices to angles, the now-estranged husband was heavily involved in making her online persona irresistible.

Divorce talk on TV foreshadowed the real thing
But while Richards celebrated newfound confidence and a growing bank account—reportedly raking in $250,000 a month—Phypers, 49, was silently preparing his exit. According to court filings accessed by the LA Times, Phypers officially filed for divorce on July 4, citing irreconcilable differences. The move came not long after he shut down his own business and reported zero income.
Denise Richards' family life and past marriages
What makes the situation even more eyebrow-raising is that the couple literally laughed off the idea of divorce on the opening episode of their reality series. Richards stated emphatically that she would 'never get divorced again,' even if they grew to hate each other. Phypers joked that if things got bad, they would just 'have different homes,' but still remain married.
Turns out, the jokes did not age well.
Though the couple never had children together, Richards has two daughters with ex-husband Charlie Sheen and adopted a third as a single mother. Phypers, once married to Desperate Housewives star Nicollette Sheridan, had stepped into a blended family—but perhaps not the spotlight that came with Richards' digital resurgence.
While Richards may need to find a new content consultant for her OnlyFans shoots, she is not short on attention—or cash. Her subscriber count continues to soar, and the buzz around her divorce might just bring even more eyeballs to her next post.

Lil Tay's confession that she wanted to join OnlyFans at the age of 9 shocks netizens: ‘Internet is truly a scourge on society'
In a shocking revelation, young rapper and influencer Lil Tay, who had been making headlines after gaining massive attention for launching an OnlyFans account shortly after her 18th birthday and claiming to have earned over $1 million (Rs 8.35 crore) within the first three hours, admitted that she had dreamed of starting an OnlyFans career since she was 9 years old. During a recent TMZ interview, the OnlyFans model, who is now 18 years old, launched her account the day she came of age. She spoke about her record-breaking success on the platform, but her comment about having such ambitions from a young age has sparked widespread concern. Amid this, fans and critics alike are expressing sadness over the pressures and influences that could lead a child to aspire to such a path, highlighting the troubling realities of fame, internet culture, and exploitation in the digital age. Lil Tay makes shocking claims about her adult content career According to The Blast, the former child star, who was born as Tay Tian, became famous for her social media presence in early 2018. While she first gained attention by calling herself the youngest flexer of the century and sharing music-related content, she has now taken a different direction at 18. In a new controversial interview, Lil opened up about her rapid rise on OnlyFans, revealing that her success on the adult content platform was something she had planned for years. Shockingly, the 18-year-old claimed, "I've been planning this since I was nine," Lil Tay declared, adding that she knew people were eagerly waiting for her to become legal. Boasting that she earned a staggering $1 million within just three hours of launching her account, Tay also alleged that some of her most eager followers were celebrities, though she declined to name them. The admission has sparked concern over the early sexualisation of young influencers and the disturbing interest shown by some in her transition to adulthood. Not family support: Adult influencer claims her family doesn't support her Further in the interview, when asked about her estranged relationship with her father and whether his response to her OnlyFans launch could spark a reconciliation, Lil Tay remained distant. The two famously parted ways in 2021 amid serious allegations of child abuse and custody battles. While her father told the outlet he wouldn't interfere with her choices, Lil Tay declined to comment, stating firmly, 'I'm focusing on me.' She also added that she might eventually purchase a new home because of her family, as they no longer support her. "Stuck In July," along with her OnlyFans link, but people were more concerned about her X-rated account," she added. Lil Tay cites Sydney Sweeney and Sabrina Carpenter as her role models Lil Tay opened up further about her venture into explicit content, revealing that she draws inspiration from actresses Sydney Sweeney and pop star Sabrina Carpenter, whom she praised as empowering, sex-positive figures. Calling herself their biggest fan, Tay defended both women fiercely, saying anyone who criticises them is simply a "hater" or a "misogynist." Netizens react to Lil Tay's 9-year-old career planning As soon as the interview surfaced on the internet, the social media users reacted to the shocking revelations, saying, 'Everyone got scammed for Lil Tay content on OF, but no one's talking about it.' "The internet is truly a scourge on society," another added. One expressed, "Jesus Christ since she was nine? What is wrong with her parents?"

Ex RCB Star Joins Adult Site, But Bannd From Promoting It In This League
Former Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Mumbai Indians (MI) pacer Tymal Mills made headlines recently by becoming the first cricketer to join OnlyFans, a website primarily known for adult content. However, just days later, Mills has suffered a stumbling block. The English pacer has been banned by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to promote his OnlyFans account logo on his bat while playing in 'The Hundred'. This comes despite Mills clarifying that there won't be any explicit adult content on his account. According to a report by BBC Sport, the ECB's decision to ban Mills from promoting OnlyFans on his bat stems from the cricket board's belief that the website does not align with the "family-friendly nature of The Hundred". The report also further stated that Mills has understood the decision made by ECB, and as a result, has not displayed the logo on his bat on the first couple of matches of The Hundred 2025. The 33-year-old Mills, who was once purchased for a whopping Rs 12 crore by RCB ahead of IPL 2017, has previously stated that his decision to join OnlyFans has a cricket and lifestyle motive to it. "This is all about pure cricket and lifestyle material. It's uncharted territory but it's something I'm really excited about," Mills had told The Athletic. "What I'll be doing will be far from that. When you lift the lid and speak to them and understand where they want to go and what the potential is, it really is exciting," Mills had further said. Mills had also stated that he would make subscriptions to his page mostly free, and use the platform to provide an insight into the life of a cricketer. "I'm going to try to push the envelope and do stuff that hasn't been done before. Players speak before and after games in the media but it's often manicured, generic stuff. I can use this platform to talk about what I'm thinking and use footage and images to illustrate the good and bad of life as a cricketer," Mills had said. The left-arm fast bowler, meanwhile, played a starring role for The Hundred franchise Southern Brave in their opening match victory over Manchester Originals. Mills finished with figures of 3/22. He even chipped in with six crucial runs for his team. Mills played a total of 10 IPL matches for RCB and MI combined, picking up 11 wickets.

England Star Wants 'OnlyFans' Logo On Bat, ECB Denies Permission: Report
Last Updated: England fast-bowler Tymal Mills is banned from promoting his OnlyFans account via his bat in The Hundred due to the tournament's 'Family Friendly' values. England fast-bowler Tymal Mills has been prohibited from promoting his OnlyFans account via his bat in The Hundred, the country's premier franchise tournament, played 100-balls-a-side. According to City AM, Sussex Sharks captain Mills approached the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) for permission but was denied, with the board citing The Hundred's 'Family Friendly' values.

The social media platform is known for explicit adult content, though a fraction of users use it to connect with their fans. Mills has already declared that there won't be any 'glamour shots'. The 32-year-old Mills wants to create 'lifestyle' content and give a peek into the daily workings of a cricketer. He has also said he aims to use his experience as a media professional to connect better with his fans. 'Just to be a thousand per cent clear, there will be no glamour shots. This is all about pure cricket and lifestyle material. It's uncharted territory, but it's something I'm really excited about," Mills told The Athletic. 'There's no hiding from the fact they are best known for p***, but what I'll be doing will be far from that. You can have that direct contact with fans and people who want to hear from you. Players speak before and after games in the media, but it's often manicured, generic stuff. I can use this platform to talk about what I'm thinking and use footage and images to illustrate the good and bad of life as a cricketer," he explained. Mills has been instrumental in Southern Brave's season so far. He took 3-22 in their opening match before clinching a crucial six runs in a one-wicket victory over Manchester Originals. Mills has played for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Mumbai Indians (MI) in the IPL while also representing England in 16 T20s. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
