Denise Richards -- Packin'

Denise RichardsDenise Richards apparently isn't feeling the love in Westlake Village, a posh suburb in Los Angeles County.  According to the Hot Property column in Sunday's L.A. Times, Richards is putting her house on the market for $4.3 mil.
 
Richards bought the 7,400 square foot house last year, around the time she split from estranged hubby Charlie Sheen.  According to the Times, she paid just under $4 million.  With commissions and expenses, at best she'll break even, assuming she gets full asking price.
 
Here's the Hollywood twist.  Richards found the house with the help of her one-time friend, now arch-rival, Heather Locklear.  Richards is dating Locklear's estranged husband, Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi fame.

Denise Richards' house

Richards and Sheen are locked in a nasty divorce battle.  On Thursday, Sheen had his deposition taken and went face to face with Richards, creating what we're told was a "tense" situation.
 
Richards wants sole custody of the couple's two children.  Sheen wants joint custody.
 
Richards has made a variety of allegations against Sheen, claiming in effect his alleged dalliances on the internet and other activities make him unsuitable as a parent.  Sheen has denied all the allegations.
 
As for the Richards' house, it's a safe bet one of her motivations is to get away from her neighbor -- none other than Heather herself.  In other words, it's time to get out of dodge.

46. Denise Richards does have 2 daughters and what no one has mentioned is, in all the slutty little trists we've seen pix of with her and Richie where are her children??? In all the trips to the atty and gym and lunches and jonts to Richies concerts, where are her children???? She to busy worrying about her next fling with best friends hubby's than she is her children, I hope the judge give those girls to Charlie. Of all the men on the planet she has to screw her best friend's ex that is hardly class. Denise is an ugly pig and can't hold a candle to Heather and same on Richie from going from prime rib to ground chuck...... Not to mention Heather is 10 years older than Denise and has more beauty and class than that skank will ever have.

47. Richie is a cute/handsome guy and Denise could look hot at times too - so koodos to them both!!! They both had rough marriages so why not hook up...they're a hot couple.

Charlie Sheen is an ass, anyone can figure that out. Denise is a complete idiot for marrying and having two kids with him. THough they should both have joint custody of the kids. Denise isn't the only one who created them so they should both have a mom and dad in their lives.

50. Denise Richards is a gold digger and smart. She knew exactly what she was doing long before she married Charlie Sheen. Come on, she was never in love with him. What better way to secure her future than to Marry a millionaire and have 2 of his babies back to back. She was secured 5 million in her divorce if he (sheen) was ever caught cheeting. Sounds like a huge reason to make all those alligations against him. I truely believe that Sheen is innocent of all of her lies. I also believe that he was truely in love with her and just stunned when she filed for divorce (the 1st time).She is young, beautiful, single, and now rich. Who, by the way was Denise Richards before she married Charlie Sheen?? No one! She was a struggling no-named actress who didn't have big parts on All my Children. Now she is hitting the headlines all due to her private life that she chose to make public and for her affair with Richie Sambora. Yes, they were seeing one another long before they got caught!!!!! I feel really bad for Charlie Sheen. He was really blind to this one. I hope that she gets what is coming to her.

51. A comment for Kris (#15). Heather threw him out because of the naked pictures that she found of his secretary on his computer. She also suspected affairs and one of them probably was Denise Richards.

52. Number 10........Sounds like this is a little personal to you. She is a slut. She is a whore. She does not deserve to have her children. I say that because any person with NO true reason to keep a dad from their children is a nasy, evil, person. I hope that Charlie gets his kids!!

53. I just read Denise Richards court papers, she claims that Sheen was taking pain medications Zanax and Ativan, hello those are anxiety medications!

54. Denise HAS to smear his name. Don't you see that she has to prove that he went back to his old ways, drugs, whore houses, drinking, ect... in order to get her 5 million in the divorce.
I hope that Charlie keeps his head up high. He looks great. He looks like he is healthy, clean and doing very well. He has a strong, close family and they will pull him through. Maybe now he can walk away happily knowing who Denise really is and what she was ALWAYS after from the start.

55. Denise got the better end of this deal - Charlie is a disgusting pig, she's well rid of him. As for Heather, she tossed Richie out, and for who? David Spade, who is gross as well. I'd prefer not to know any further information about this group of people, either, but I do hope, for the sake of the kids involved, that the adults begin to act, well, adult.

56. That hoe deserves everything she get's . And if Richie really loved his wife he would not have done that to her Plus with her best friend that drity basterd!

Denise has 2 Daughters so maybe you shouldnt be judging her if you dont have the facts. You may THINK you do, but obviously you have no clue. Who knows what is fact or fiction in Hollywood? Magazines say whatever to get a sale. And the stuff that is Fact LIKE THE SEX OF HER CHILDREN,,,,,,,,, Some people can't even get that right.

58. I agree with #15

Heather threw Richie out... or so we heard.... he is fair game... according to Denise, her and Heather have not been friend for awhile... so she really didnt steal her "bestfriends" man...


hahaha

59. Folks, Folks, Folks...

Why are all of you getting so hot under the collar? First off, we all know that everything the tabloids print isn't always EXACTLY the truth.

Secondly, girl rules do not apply in this situation. If your "friend" puts you in the position of having to lie to another friend about your affairs (i.e. Heather bringing David Spade over before the divorce was filed) this nullifies the girl rule.

Thirdly, a good man is hard to find thesedays. And I am sure after Charlie, most men would seem better. This is a rebound relationship. They knew each other. They are attractive people. And they were (are) in similar situations. OF COURSE they would fall for each other. But I doubt it will lead anywhere long term.

Why not worry about your own life, your own children, etc. Or if you really want to worry about something think about this -- there were TWO storms that hit Louisiana last year. Most folks have heard so much about Katrina; but three weeks later Rita hit the rural parts of SW Louisiana and franky, we have been forgotten. Worry about how these folks will raise a family in a 10x20 FEMA trailer until their areas can be cleaned up and decontaminated. Worry about how their kids can go to school when they have to share schools (i.e. an entire high school is sharing with another entire high school).

Worry about something substantial. Not what these celebrities do in their own homes, on their own time, with their doors closed.

60. i don't know denise richards personally, nor did i really hear about her until this whole sheen/sambor/locklear fiascoe. I am, however, a devoted long time bon jovi fan. i was surprised to see richie hook up with his wife's friend so soon after they separated (seemed a bit of character).. the only thing i can think of, is that this is kind of a get back to heather for ending their marriage so abruptly and publicly (let's face it, none of us would of taken it well if it happened to one us). as for denise, it seems to me she might of had this whole thing planned,.i mean look, according to past reports heather and richie were once happily married, he was noted to being a family man and loved his wife and daughter very much. he was not addicted to drugs, porn or prostitutes and wanted more children..just the type of life style denise stated she was looking for when she married charlie. so if heather and denise were such good friends at one point and she seen how much richie loved his wife and daughter, why not support heather on leaving richie, it will just leave him open for her to swoop on..personnally, i think she's a litlle off her rocker (or immature to say the least). but, this is just my opinion and they do have the right to live their lives they way they want to..they all got some publicity out of it (which might benefit denise down the road)..too bad the kids are involved, that's the sad thing..
