Denise Richards and ex Aaron Phypers have been ordered to vacate their home in Calabasas, Calif., after failing to pay rent.
According to court documents obtained by Page Six, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge signed off on their landlord’s request to evict them from the property on Friday. According to the complaint, the two owe $84k in rent that they haven’t paid.
The landlord also requested the two pay attorney fees and for damages.
Richards, 54, and Phypers, 53, signed a lease for the property in June 2020. They paid a $24,000 security deposit.
Richards is no longer living in the Calabasas property amid her contentious divorce from Phypers after nearly six years of marriage.
She claimed she moved out of the home two years ago in court docs obtained by Page Six in August. According to the actress’ filing, she was under the impression Phypers’ family would only live there temporarily.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum allegedly informed Phypers that he would be in charge of the rent starting in January while his family still lived in the home and refused to leave.
The filing stated that the exes’ landlord had allegedly been trying to contact Phypers about unpaid rent for the past six months but had been unable to get a hold of him, thus serving them with an eviction notice since both of their names are on the lease.
Richards also alleged that Phypers and his family had “severely damaged” the house, describing the condition as being “in a state of disarray.”
In November, she was granted a permanent restraining order against Phypers after alleging he abused her throughout their marriage, which he’s denied.
Later that month, he filed documents asking for an emergency hearing in his spousal support case, claiming he was in danger of being homeless.
“I am in literal danger of being made homeless with no vehicle and no cell phone unless the hearing
can be advanced to an earlier date and orders can be entered allowing me access to the substantial funds that are being controlled by [Richards],” Phypers alleged.
He also tallied his total home bill costs for utilities to equal $3,543 in past due water bill for reconnection, $13,000 past due gas for reconnection, $12,000 for past-due electricity, $1,400 past due waste management, and $1,200 past due special trash removal.
