Charlie Sheen Opens Up About Rekindling His Bond With Denise Richards — “She’s Terrific”
Charlie Sheen has been making a comeback in 2025, but is he ready to settle down? The “Two and a Half Men” alum opened up about the possibility of rekindling his relationship with ex-wife Denise Richards.
Denise Richards Revealed Her Current Feelings for Charlie Sheen
Richards, 54, sat down to discuss her relationship with ex-husband Sheen during his two-part Netflix documentary, “aka Charlie Sheen.”
During her interview, the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum admitted through tears, “I still love him.”
The former couple on the set of their 2001 film, “Good Advice.”
“She was the hottest woman alive at the time,” Sheen said of his future wife.
According to Richards, the “Platoon” actor was “nervous” to ask her out on a date.
“That’s the thing that people would be surprised by – Charlie can be very shy,” she explained. Their relationship progressed quickly after spending their first date at his apartment, watching Barry Bonds attempt to tie the single-season home run record in 2001.
They went on to tie the knot in 2002 and welcomed two daughters, Sami and Lola before their divorce in 2006.
“The truth is, I feel like my life with Charlie is three stages. It’s the time I met him and married him, then my divorce,” Richards added in the September doc. “Then the aftermath of it.”
Charlie Sheen on Whether He Would Get Back Together With Denise Richards
When confronted by Bill Maher during the October 27 episode of his “Club Random” podcast, Sheen did not deny that his ex-wife still had feelings for him.
“She obviously still loves you,” Maher said, to which Sheen responded simply, “Yeah.”
The actor later told Graham Bensinger during the Wednesday, October 29, episode of the “In Depth with Graham Bensinger” podcast that he does not see himself getting back together with Richards.
“I don’t think so. I don’t think so,” he told Bensinger when asked about rekindling. “And I don’t say that negatively. I just feel like, um, I think we came together in a way… I think the right person for her is still out there. And I think the right person for me is still out there, you know? And she’s terrific. And that’s nothing against her at all.”
While he has no intention of reconnecting romantically with Richards, Sheen does not shut down the idea of finding love again “at some point.”
“I think there’s a lot of cool stuff on the horizon, and it’d be fun to share some of that, or at least the experiences or whatever,” he told the host.
"SHOCKING TWIST ON B&B: COULD THOMAS FORRESTER DESTROY HOPE AND LIAM’S WEDDING WITH A DEVASTATING MOVE?
This week’s slow-burning storyline involves Thomas’s return on The Bold and the Beautiful. His return could shake up Liam and Hope’s wedded bliss.
Key Takeaways
- Liam and Hope recently got back together.
- Liam popped the question, and Hope accepted.
- B&B teased Thomas’s return for later this year.
- Will he finally cross paths with Hope?
It’s All Happening So Fast
Just a few weeks ago, Hope (Annika Noelle) was engaged to Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor). The two called off their engagement. It was a mutual decision; however, Carter was the one who ultimately made the decision. He noticed that Hope still had feelings for Liam (Scott Clifton).
He let her go by removing his engagement ring from her finger. Now, Hope was a free agent who could explore the next chapter in her life. But she wanted to stay single… At least for a minute.
She told Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Deacon (Sean Kanan) that she wanted to recollect her thoughts before jumping into another relationship. But Liam had different plans.
He wanted to surprise Hope with a proposal. Surprisingly, she said yes, despite being engaged to Carter just weeks ago. Now, it seems like the two are on a fast track to get married as soon as possible (Hope and Liam reunite. What’s next for the B&B couple? ). However, that could all come screeching to a halt if Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) has anything to do with it.
Will Thomas Return to Shake Up Lope?
Last week, it was reported that Thomas is returning to Los Angeles. The timing couldn’t be any more interesting for Hope and Liam’s wedding.
New Executive Producer Casey Kasprzyk dropped a photo of Atkinson on the set of the series with the caption, “This week.” B&B fans are hoping that Thomas and Hope will cross paths again.
His previous return was far from epic. Thomas slammed Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) for choosing Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) over Taylor (Rebecca Budig). Then, he put his hands on Brooke, blaming her for breaking up his family.
Ridge talked some sense into Thomas, who realized he wasn’t acting like himself. He gave his blessings to the newly reunited couple and returned to Paris. B&B fans were disappointed that he never ran into Hope, and he hasn’t been seen since.
Lope’s reunion has a glaring problem: they never talked about what led to their marital problems in the past. Hope was attracted to Thomas, which led her to cheat on Liam. Meanwhile, Liam never fully moved on from Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood).
Hope won’t be able to resist Thomas if they end up in the same room together. She might realize that she never stopped loving him and had gotten a little lost after he left. We know these two characters have incredible chemistry. Who knows what will happen if they start spending time together again?
