Aaron Phypers slams 'false allegations' after arrest
A representative for Aaron Phypers has accused Denise Richards of making “false accusations” leading to his arrest and insisted he “will be acquitted”.
Aaron Phypers has accused Denise Richards of making “false accusations” leading to his arrest.
The 53-year-old businessman was taken into custody by Los Angeles County Sheriff Deputies at a courthouse in the city last week after testifying in a hearing relating to his estranged wife's temporary restraining order against him.
And a representative for Aaron has insisted he is innocent and “will be acquitted”.
His spokesperson told Us Weekly: “We can confirm that Aaron Phypers was, in fact, arrested near the end of the family law court day on October 17, 2025, and was later released on bail.
“We have not seen the criminal complaint, but we believe that it is most likely based upon the some of the same false accusations that Denise Richards has brought against Mr. Phypers in the family law domestic violence proceeding, which she claims occurred nearly four years ago. If so, we expect that the evidence will demonstrate Mr. Phypers’ innocence and that he will be acquitted.”
Phypers was released on a $200,000 bond
Denise’s lawyer told Us Weekly Aaron had been charged with “spousal abuse”.
An eyewitness told the publication: “He’s been arrested outside the court and taken down a nearby escalator. [He] did not come back into [the] hallway. Denise is here. She’s calm and talking to her team.
“[Aaron] didn’t seem to understand that he was about to get arrested.”
Michael Finley, Phypers’ lawyer told TMZ that his client was taken into custody over an “outstanding warrant” that has a possible connection to the abuse allegations.
Denise, 54, went public with domestic violence allegations against her estranged husband in July. Aaron has denied all of the allegations.
