American actress and former fashion model who has appeared in numerous films, including Starship Troopers (1997), Wild Things (1998) with Neve Campbell, Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999), The World Is Not Enough (1999) as Bond girl Christmas Jones, and in Valentine (2001). From 2008 to 2009, she starred on the E! reality show Denise Richards: It's Complicated. Between 2010 and 2011, she was a series regular on the comedy Blue Mountain State. Richards first met actor Charlie Sheen on the set of Loaded Weapon 1 in 1991. They became engaged on 26 December 2001, and married on 15 June 2002. They have two daughters together, Sam J. Sheen (born 9 March 2004) and Lola Rose Sheen (born 1 June 2005). In March 2005, while pregnant with their second daughter, Richards filed for divorce from Sheen. The couple briefly reconciled and sought marriage counselling. However, on 4 January 2006, Richards' representative announced that she was continuing with the divorce. She later sought a restraining order against Sheen, alleging death threats against her. On 19 April 2006, Richards filed formal legal papers seeking a divorce from Sheen under the laws of the state of California. On 30 November 2006, Richards and Sheen's divorce became final, with Sheen being ordered to stay 300 feet away from his ex-wife and their daughters, except during supervised visits. In May 2010, Richards was handed over custody of her and Sheen's two daughters by Sheen. The two signed a written agreement stating that she now has sole legal custody of Sam and Lola. In June 2011, Richards adopted a third daughter, Eloise Joni Richards (born 24 May 2011), as a single parent. Link to Wikipedia biography
