Traditionally, as movie franchises chug along with one sequel after another, each entry gets worse and makes less money. The same can’t be said for Toy Story. The first film changed the face of animation when it came out in 1995. Arguably, the second and third films were even better. 31 years later, Toy Story 5 just had the biggest opening in franchise history.

What keeps us coming back is easy to explain — audiences care about the characters and the storylines they’re put in. The Toy Story movies make us laugh, but they are also emotionally devastating in the best way possible. Nostalgia and a deep love for these toys come to life have left fans weeping across generations.

Putting the original Toy Story as last on the list doesn’t mean this one won’t make you cry. It still has plenty of heartbreaking moments. The premise of the first movie revolves around Andy receiving a new toy called Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen). With all of his buttons and cool features, he’s much more exciting than the simple Woody (Tom Hanks). For the first time since he’s been with Andy, Woody finds himself out of favor and left behind.

There is also Buzz’s sad origin story. Fresh out of the box, he believes he’s a real Star Command astronaut, only to learn that he is a toy. Accepting that he’s not who he thinks he is takes Buzz on a journey that moves from painful to heartwarming as he welcomes his role and becomes friends with Woody and the other toys.

Before even seeing a single frame of Toy Story 5 outside the trailer, the latest entry has perhaps the saddest premise. The idea of a new, rival toy entering the scene isn’t anything new, but this time, our beloved characters are threatened by the most imposing antagonist of all: technology. How do toys from a bygone era compete with a smart tablet set on replacing them all?

That’s already depressing enough in a storyline pulled from our real society. What’s worse is watching what it does to both Jessie and Bonnie. The child who loves these toys so much is growing up, and her friends make fun of her for still being a child who plays with dolls. Lonely and wanting to fit in, Bonnie rejects them all, including her favorite, Jessie (Joan Cusack).

Left behind, Jessie returns to the home of her former owner, Emily, whom she has never gotten over all these years later. There will never be a going back to the past, but Jessie finds closure when she discovers a lunchbox belonging to Emily’s daughter. On the surface is the child’s name: Jessie. Throw in a bit of “When She Loved Me,” and it’s a tearjerker moment as the cowgirl realizes just how much she meant to Emily.

In Toy Story 2, another new toy takes center stage. This time, it’s a cowgirl named Jessie. She, too, had a child owner she once loved, only to be abandoned. Now she’s a lonely, unplayed-with collectible. The sad montage of Sarah McLachlan‘s “When She Loved Me” played over scenes of Jessie going from a favorite toy to being forgotten is gut-wrenching.

Toy Story 2 is about being forgotten, whether in smaller or bigger moments. One scene finds Woody on a dusty shelf, where he discovers a penguin with a broken squeaker named Wheezy. He’s sat up here for years with no one, completely forgotten about. In a bittersweet moment, Woody, forever the hero, decides to give up a life with Andy to stay with the rest of the Round-Up Gang. This means saying goodbye to everyone he knows and letting Andy go. He’ll come back, but even if you know this, it’s a scene that’ll get the tears flowing.

‘Toy Story 4’ (2019)

When Toy Story 4 was released, many fans weren’t accepting. The third film was the perfect ending, and a fourth risked messing it up. While it’s not as good as what came before, Toy Story 4 still excelled at going straight for the heartstrings. With the toys now living with Bonnie, Woody has to accept that he is no longer the favorite. As their scared owner enters pre-school, she creates a makeshift toy named Forky (Tony Hale) to get her through it. Built out of a spork, Forky doesn’t understand his worth. To him, he’s just trash and wants to throw himself away. It’s tragic to see Forky’s lack of self-worth, but sweet to watch him grow and realize how important he is.

At the end of Toy Story 4, Woody accepts that his time as an important toy to Bonnie has ended. It’s time for him to move on and save other lost toys with Bo Peep (Annie Potts). This means Woody must say goodbye, seemingly forever, to the other toys. They all gather around, hugging and laughing, but it’s the silent embrace with Buzz that really grabs you by the throat. As the RV pulls away, Woody and Bo watch, ready to begin their next journey. “He’s not lost, not anymore,” Buzz says.

‘Toy Story 3’ (2010)

Number one on this list is obvious. The original franchise came to a perfect end in 2010 with Toy Story 3. It’s the best of them all and has a double wallop of scenes that left audiences bawling their eyes out. The first comes during the film’s climax. When the toys end up in a dump, they find themselves on a conveyor belt headed for the fires of an incinerator. With no way out, the toys accept their fate and grab each other’s hands. In their final moments, all they want to do is be together. Would a kid’s movie dare kill them? Even if you know that they’re going to be saved, to see the love they have for each other as the music swells will leave you a mess. A writer can’t even type this out without getting misty-eyed!

Then comes the ending. The toys have been with Andy since the beginning of the franchise. Now that he’s off to college, he wants to give them to another child who can appreciate them. He takes them to Bonnie’s house and shows her how fun they are. At the bottom of the box sits Woody, Andy’s favorite toy of all. He hesitates. How can he let go of him? Seeing the look on Bonnie’s face, though, Andy hands him over, letting go of his childhood. He has grown up, but everything will be okay because another child has already fallen in love with the toys that mean so much.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice’s daughter, Milania Giudice, was allegedly “throwing things” at her mother’s house before her assault arrest earlier this month, police claim.

Milania’s sister Gabriella Giudice called police in Montville Township, New Jersey, on May 14 to report that Milania, 20, was “acting erratically,” according to the arrest report obtained by Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 30. Gabriella, 21, told the dispatcher that her sister had been “throwing food [and] candles,” although the alleged victim was not named. No weapons or injuries were reported.

According to the report, Milania was placed in handcuffs at the time of arrest. Her vehicle was searched “before and after transport.”

The location of the arrest was listed in the report as Teresa’s New Jersey home.

TMZ was first to report the arrest details. Us reached out to Milania’s legal reps for comment.

Few psychological thrillers have left a mark on pop culture quite like 1987’s Fatal Attraction. Equal parts cautionary tale and nerve-shredding suspense, the film transformed a seemingly ordinary affair into one of cinema’s most unforgettable stories of obsession, helping define the thriller genre for an entire generation.

A Deadly Affair

Fatal Attraction shows audiences what happens when a man steps out on his wife with the wrong woman, leading to his life being turned completely upside down and the safety of his family threatened.

Attorney Daniel Gallagher (Michael Douglas) meets the attractive Alexandra Forrest (Glenn Close) at a work event and begins what he believes is a brief tryst with her while his wife Beth (Anne Archer) and daughter Ellen (Ellen Hamilton Latzen) are away visiting Beth’s family.

The fling’s intensity goes from zero to 100 when Daniel tries to leave Alexandra’s apartment the next day and she gashes open her wrists with a knife in a plea to make him stay.

Got My Mind Set On You

Fatal Attraction sees Daniel stay with his obviously disturbed new friend overnight as he wants to make certain that she’s okay. Days later, she shows up at his office and invites him out on a date, but he rejects her. Not taking a hint, Alexandra begins to continuously phone Daniel at work, prompting the lawyer to have his secretary block all incoming calls from her.

But Alexandra just can’t take no for an answer. She begins to stalk her former lover at his home, telling him that she is pregnant with his child. When this ploy fails, the jilted Alexandra becomes destructive and violent.

Things Turn Violent

Fatal Attraction lives up to its name as it follows Alexandra vandalizing Daniel’s car, stalking his wife, and unleashing her fury on one of his daughter’s pets. The film shows a once docile Alexandra spiral completely out of control, leaving audiences to wonder whether or not the unfaithful Daniel will be able to escape her lunacy with his life.

While Michael Douglas gives audiences a performance worthy of praise, Glenn Close is absolutely brilliant. Fatal Attraction serves as a great vehicle for the actress to show every imaginable emotion on the spectrum with such a heightened level of intensity that it became the role that Close is best known for portraying. For her efforts, she was nominated for Best Actress at the Academy Awards, losing out to Cher for her role in Moonstruck.

Fatal Attraction was nominated for five other Oscars, though it did not garner any wins. In addition to Close, Archer was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. The film was also a Best Picture nominee, and director Adrian Lyne nearly brought home the coveted gold statue for Best Director.

As of this writing, Fatal Attraction is streaming free with ads on Pluto TV, and without ads through a Paramount+ subscription.

Taylor Swift is reportedly dealing with increased pressure as her highly anticipated wedding to Travis Kelce draws near.

The couple is expected to say “I do” in New York City on July 3, with Madison Square Garden believed to be the location for an event related to their nuptials.

However, as the big day approaches, sources claim Taylor Swift is stressing over the finer details as she and her fiancé are determined to ensure everyone on their massive guest list has the “time of their lives.”

Sources have shared with Star Magazine that Swift is dealing with “stress dreams” over her upcoming wedding.

Even though Swift and Kelce have a huge team of people assisting with the planning of the event that might take place in Madison Square Garden, the couple is said to still be very involved in the process, which is taking a toll on Swift in particular.

“Planning this wedding has become a full-time job and then some,” a source told the publication. “This isn’t a situation where they just gave their planners a mood board and let them go to town. Taylor, in particular, wants a say in everything.”

“They’ve invited so many people, and they want every single one of them to have the time of their lives, so the pressure they’re putting on themselves is enormous,” the source shared, before claiming that Swift has been “having stress dreams about everything from the cake to her dress going wrong.”

The Couple Is Excited About Their Big Day But ‘Can’t Wait For It To Be Over’ Due To The Stress

While things seem to be going smoothly with the couple’s wedding plans, Swift and Kelce were reportedly forced to change their initial venue and location due to security concerns and information leaks.

According to reports, the couple initially had their sights set on Rhode Island before switching to New York City and settling on Madison Square Garden.

Speaking about Swift and Kelce’s desires to keep their wedding details under wraps, a source noted, “They’ve been desperately trying to keep the details a secret until after the fact, so it’s being treated like some sort of military operation.

“Every time something leaks, they end up having to change something,” the source added. “In a lot of ways, they can’t wait for it to be over, so they can stop stressing about it.”

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce’s Wedding Invitation Includes A Trap For Potential Leakers

In their quest to keep guests from sharing details about their wedding or images of invitations online, Swift and Kelce took some extreme measures.

Sources close to the situation told TMZ that Swift and Kelce’s invitations are protected by a strict anti-leak defense.

To immediately expose any potential leakers, each invite features a unique, custom watermark with the guest’s name repeated throughout the design.

Interestingly, the invitations completely omit any mention of Madison Square Garden as the venue. Instead, the cards are said to simply list New York City as the location and July 3 as the official wedding date.

Swift and Kelce also reportedly made their guests sign ironclad NDAs before receiving an invite to the wedding.

The Couple Filed Permits To Close Down Streets Around The Garden

Swift and Kelce are leaving no loose ends when it comes to their wedding as the couple has also reportely filed permits to close the streets around Madison Square Garden.

Due to the move, the singer and NFL player have faced heavy backlash online, with several individuals on social media accusing them of being inconsiderate as the event will be taking place during the holiday weekend.

Small business owners also expressed displeasure at the thought of Swift and Kelce’s wedding taking place at Madison Square Garden, with many fearing it would be bad for their business.

One individual even told TMZ that he felt “super irritated” about the upcoming event, while another asked that couple compensate business owners in the area.

Two Major Legendary Singers Will Reportedly Perform At Travis Kelce And Taylor Swift’s Wedding

Given the unmatched fame and wealth of Swift and Kelce, it is no surprise that they would secure a lineup of A-list artists to perform at their wedding ceremony.

According to Page Six, music legends, Tim McGraw and Stevie Nicks will be performing at the event.

The inclusion of McGraw carries a deeply sentimental weight for the pop icon. As a teenager, her very first entry onto the Billboard charts was her self-titled debut single named after the country legend.

As for Nicks, fans had already anticipated an appearance by the Fleetwood Mac star after Swift supported the New York Knicks wearing a custom “Stevie Knicks” shirt, with many seeing the playful fashion choice as a cryptic hint.

Tom Hardy‘s “MobLand” future has taken a fresh turn following reported talks with the show’s producers. 

The actor has remained at the center of speculation in recent months, with conflicting reports about his relationship with the series and whether he would continue beyond its first season.

Tom Hardy is back in the spotlight after reported talks with producers in London sparked fresh questions about the Paramount+ series. 

Hardy has agreed to return for the third season of “MobLand” after a recent meeting in London with producers Jez Butterworth and David Glasser reportedly resolved tensions behind the scenes.

The report added that Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan are also expected to return for the new season. Hardy’s decision comes after weeks of speculation that he was preparing to leave the Paramount+ crime series.

TMZ reported that Hardy had previously clashed with Butterworth, but the London talks paved the way for his return. The outlet added that Mirren supported bringing him back because producers recognized he remains the face of the series, per TMZ.

The Studio Was Reportedly Scrambling To Salvage The Future Of The Crime Drama 

Reports claimed Paramount executives reconsidered their decision to move forward without Hardy after viewers strongly pushed back against his reported exit from “MobLand.”

As reported by The Blast, recent meetings were reportedly held with Hardy as Paramount executives explored the possibility of bringing him back to the series. 

Sources said that the producers were taken by surprise by the fans, who had seen Harry Da Souza as one of the show’s main attractions.  Sources said the executives had originally thought that they could proceed with the series without Hardy, but that was soon to change as the fallout from the decision proved greater than anticipated.

The executives’ estimates of consumers’ loyalty to Hardy’s character, one source said, were “terribly wrong” and put it as a “huge crisis.” Reportedly, talks were restarted, but with nobody making an official commitment, insiders emphasized that the actor was not back on board.

Tom Hardy Had The Support Of Helen Mirren

Reports suggested one of Hardy’s biggest frustrations involved repeated production delays caused by script issues. The actor was also rumored to be planning a break from Hollywood to spend more time with his wife, Charlotte Riley, and their children, making the uncertain filming schedule even harder to accept.

There were also reports of Hardy being late and spending too long in his trailer, which caused an issue on set.  There was a great deal of speculation, but it seems that his character, Harry Da Souza, was not cut from the script, meaning there is always the possibility that he will return to the series.

Helen Mirren, however, appeared to shut down talk of any lasting feud by publicly backing her co-star. The Oscar winner said she would work with Hardy again “in a f-cking heartbeat,” calling him “the most amazing actor” and “a very special person.” She added that the finished performance mattered most. 

Guy Ritchie Reportedly Stepped In To Keep Tom Hardy On Board

Paramount+ had not completely given up on Hardy despite reports that the actor could be leaving “MobLand.” Executive producer Guy Ritchie was reportedly working behind the scenes to help bridge the gap between Hardy and the show’s producers.

Insiders claimed the filmmaker has been encouraging David Glasser to find common ground because he enjoys collaborating with the actor.

Public claims that Hardy was fired for his “difficulty” sparked the situation. Sources say the relationship might have been salvaged if the behind-the-scenes drama had not been revealed. Should he ultimately decide against returning, Paramount+ could face a costly challenge, because Harry Da Souza remains central to the storyline. Producers may reportedly need to rewrite and refilm parts of the already completed second season to explain his absence, a move insiders claimed could cost the studio millions before season three even begins.

Inside Tom Hardy’s Reported Behavior Behind-The-Scenes

Reports claimed Hardy’s alleged conduct behind the scenes became a growing concern for the production, with sources accusing him of remaining in his trailer for hours and leaving co-stars, including Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren, waiting while filming was delayed.

One insider even described the alleged behavior as “career suicide,” suggesting it risked damaging his standing in the industry, as reported by The Blast.

Reports also claimed production delays threatened Hardy’s plans to step away from Hollywood after 2026. Meanwhile, sources alleged Helen Mirren had become increasingly frustrated by his lateness and attitude, even though the actress would later publicly praise her co-star despite the speculation.

Tom Hardy’s reported return may have settled one major question, but will it be enough to move “MobLand” beyond the controversy that has followed the series for months?

As Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s July wedding continues to generate headlines, new reports suggest the singer is grappling with mixed emotions over her fractured friendship with Blake Lively.

Once among Swift’s closest confidantes, Lively is reportedly unlikely to attend the highly anticipated ceremony following their falling out amid the actress’s legal dispute with Justin Baldoni.

While insiders claim Taylor Swift still misses their friendship, questions remain over whether the pair can repair their relationship, especially with the wedding fast approaching.

Sources who spoke to Closer Online claim Swift has been struggling with the fallout from her friendship breakdown with Lively, a relationship that once ranked among the most important in her personal life.

Although insiders say the decision to distance herself was ultimately Swift’s, they maintain that the situation remains “painful,” especially as she prepares for what is expected to be one of the biggest moments of her life.

“Even though it was Taylor’s decision to end the friendship, it’s still very painful,” a source said. “She and Blake were so close for so many years – so of course she misses her – and now here she is getting married and not even inviting Blake to her wedding. “

According to those close to the situation, the pair shared a bond that spanned nearly a decade, making it difficult for Swift to process the possibility of Lively’s being absent from the wedding.

Some sources suggest there is also an “element of guilt at play” surrounding how dramatically their relationship has changed, particularly given speculation that Lively “was going to be Taylor’s maid of honor and now she’s not even getting an invite, which is just sad.”

How The Justin Baldoni Legal Drama Allegedly Drove Taylor Swift And Blake Lively Apart

The uncertainty comes amid conflicting reports about whether the actress will receive an invitation. While some outlets have suggested Swift may be open to extending an olive branch, others insist there has been no meaningful reconciliation between the former friends.

Their friendship reportedly began to unravel amid Lively’s highly publicized legal dispute with her “It Ends With Us” co-star and director Justin Baldoni.

The situation intensified after Swift became indirectly involved in the controversy through legal filings and court documents, prompting reports that she wanted to distance herself from the ongoing drama.

Despite the apparent rift, insiders say Swift has not completely stopped caring about Lively. They claim she still misses the friendship and regrets the circumstances that led to its collapse.

At the same time, those around her reportedly believe reconnecting at such a significant event could reopen old wounds and shift attention away from the celebration itself.

Blake Lively Reportedly Steps Back From Efforts To Reconcile With Taylor Swift

As speculation grows over a rumored July wedding, many believe Lively is unlikely to attend. The actress was notably absent from a recent pre-wedding gathering hosted by Swift, further fueling reports that their relationship remains strained.

According to insiders, Lively has since stepped back from attempts to repair the friendship after previously reaching out in hopes of making amends.

“There’s no question that Blake would jump at the chance to come to the wedding. Everyone knows she’s still hoping that somehow her friendship with Taylor will recover, but to her credit, she hasn’t been putting any pressure on things,” the insider said.

They continued, “For a long time, she was reaching out and trying to make amends, but she finally gave up, and that’s definitely the smartest path to take if there’s going to be any hope of healing their friendship in the long term.”

Taylor Swift And Blake Lively Will Heal With Time, Insiders Predict

Some observers have also pointed to Swift’s history of repairing friendships after lengthy periods of distance.

Her previous falling out with Karlie Kloss was cited as an example of how time can help mend fractured relationships.

“Taylor does not like to be pressured,” the insider explained. She has a history of taking a step back from people when she’s hurt and then reassessing later on.”

The insider added, “Look at what happened with Karlie Kloss. They didn’t speak for years, but time did heal things between them, to the point that Karlie is getting an invite, which did shock a fair amount of folks in Taylor’s life.”

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Reportedly Set For 1,000-Guest NYC Wedding

Away from her friendship struggles, Swift and Kelce’s wedding is shaping up to be one of the most closely watched celebrity events of the year.

Reports suggest the couple is preparing to exchange vows before a crowd of more than 1,000 guests at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.

According to sources familiar with the plans, the ceremony is expected to welcome between 1,100 and 1,200 attendees on July 3.

Madison Square Garden is said to have been chosen in part for its privacy advantages. Unlike many high-profile venues, the arena offers limited opportunities for photographers to capture images from outside, while its underground parking facilities allow guests to arrive and depart discreetly.

Extensive security measures are also reportedly being coordinated for the event. Sources claim organizers are working alongside the New York Police Department and private security teams to manage access to the venue and minimize disruptions. Plans are said to include restricting access to nearby streets to create a secure perimeter around the celebration.

Marvel fans have spent months trying to uncover every secret hidden within Spider-Man: Brand New Day. From theories surrounding Sadie Sink’s mysterious role to speculation about multiple villains appearing in the film, nearly every aspect of the movie has become the subject of intense debate online.

But according to Tom Holland, fans still haven’t figured out the movie’s biggest mystery.

Speaking about the highly anticipated film, Holland confirmed that the identity of Spider-Man: Brand New Day‘s main villain has not leaked, despite countless rumors and theories circulating across social media. The actor has become famous for accidentally revealing spoilers throughout his Marvel career, making his ability to keep this secret under wraps all the more impressive.

The revelation only adds to the growing intrigue surrounding the film. Recent trailers have teased an unseen threat wreaking havoc across New York City, with Peter Parker facing an enemy unlike anything he has encountered before. The footage shows destruction on a massive scale while deliberately avoiding revealing exactly who is responsible, leading fans to speculate about everyone from classic Spider-Man villains to entirely unexpected MCU newcomers.

Holland has previously described Brand New Day as something of a detective story, with Peter investigating a dangerous mystery while also dealing with strange new changes to his own powers. The actor has repeatedly called the film a fresh start for the character following the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, with Peter Parker now operating completely on his own in a world that has forgotten who he is.

That secrecy has only fueled fan excitement. Every trailer frame is being dissected for clues, and theories continue to spread regarding the identities of both the mysterious villain and Sadie Sink’s undisclosed character. Yet Holland’s latest comments suggest that Marvel and Sony may have successfully pulled off one of their most closely guarded secrets in years.

Adding to the anticipation, industry trackers have reported massive interest in the film as ticket sales continue to surge, positioning Spider-Man: Brand New Day as one of the biggest movie events of 2026.

For now, however, fans may have to accept that the movie’s greatest mystery remains exactly that: a mystery.

And if Tom Holland is telling the truth, the villain hiding in the shadows is someone no one has guessed yet.

Tom Holland revealed today in Berlin that the main villain in SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY has not been leaked yet:

For Denise Richards, if it is not broken, do not fix it!

The reality star has asked a judge to make sure that her financial records stay private, as she may eventually have to turn them over to her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, in their contentious divorce battle.

Denise Richards and Aaron Phypers have slugged out their divorce for over a year in court, with the actress nailing a permanent restraining order against the frequency medicine practitioner due to his alleged abuse.

The media personality made her wish for her earnings to be shrouded in secrecy known in court before she is ordered to turn in the information in their legal proceeding.

The 55-year-old reportedly filed the new petition due to the previous habit of her estranged husband allegedly spreading her private information to the media when they separated.

Richards expressed concerns about the confidentiality agreements made with some of the companies she has worked with who contributed to her earnings one way or the other, including “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” franchise.

She noted that making this information public will become a direct violation of that agreement, and also negatively affect her relationship with the cast members.

Richards continued that her ex may decide to leak the content in her financial document if there is no protective order barring him from making such a move. As stated by TMZ, Phypers had asked for documents connected to her pay from 32 Flavors Production, which produces the Bravo show.

The Bravo Star Previously Slammed Aaron Phypers For Spreading False Botched Surgery Rumors

In March, The Blast shared that Richards discussed her latest cosmetic procedure, a facelift, but admitted that she was forced to reveal it before her planned time due to her ex’s cunning ways. She noted that she spent months recovering from that facelift only for the secret to be blown open in the press.

She claimed that Phypers had tipped off the press about her beauty appointment where she was receiving microneedling treatments to help minimize her surgical scars, and the pictures got out. Richards alleged that her ex went further by fueling rumors that the facelift had turned out badly, which, according to her, was utterly false. 

Richards continued that she found herself at a crossroads about discussing the surgery publicly, but the news coming out made it necessary to address it. In retrospect, the reality star joked that she might have managed to keep the facelift a secret for longer. 

However, she acknowledged that the results were so noticeable that people may have eventually realized she had undergone cosmetic work anyway. The actress has embarked on an overhaul of her looks over the past year as part of a grand mission to reclaim her image amid her split from Phypers.

Denise Richards Faced A Five-Figure Financial Blow In Bitter Divorce Battle

Earlier in the year, the former couple’s divorce battle recorded another milestone as a judge gave an order for Richards to make temporary financial obligations into Phypers’ purse as their divorce continued. 

The Blast shared that the actress was ordered to remit $5,000 every month as temporary spousal support payment to Phypers. The judgment explained that payments will commence in March and be due on the fifth day of each month unless the court issues a new order.

The court also ordered the Bravo star to pay an additional $30,000 in related costs, with a breakdown of $25,000 to help cover Phypers’ attorney’s fees and $5,000 for a forensic accountant.

The payments will also be spread over three monthly installment plans of $10,000 from March through May. Right after the judgment was granted, Richards was spotted outside the courthouse appearing very relaxed compared to Aaron, who appeared pretty tense.

Aaron Phypers Claimed The ‘RHOBH’ Star Owed Him A Share Of OnlyFans Earnings 

Phypers first petitioned for spousal support since his divorce filing in July 2025 and again earlier this year, claiming he is in a difficult financial position. In court filings, Phypers claimed he no longer has a reliable source of income after his business operations were allegedly disrupted in late 2024. 

He explained that temporary spousal support must be allowed to ensure that both parties are financially stable during the divorce proceedings.

Phypers also maintained that decisions regarding temporary support should be based on financial need and each party’s ability to pay, rather than unresolved allegations or the eventual division of marital assets. 

He also argued that his pending criminal and domestic violence case should not affect his eligibility for support, since he has never been convicted for any crime. The financial issues with the couple are not limited to spousal support. 

According to Phypers, he should receive a portion of Denise Richards’ income from Onlyfans, arguing that numerous photos earning revenue are branded as created by him and thus his creative work. 

He also alleged that he was promised half of the production income from Smoke & Mirrors Entertainment, LLC for a television project but has received neither his alleged share of the profits nor an accounting of the company’s earnings. 

Denise Richards Opened Up About Cosmetic Surgery Journey Following On-Set Injury

Before revealing she had undergone a facelift, Richards opened up about another cosmetic procedure that followed a frightening on-set accident.

The actress previously disclosed that one of her breast implants ruptured while she was competing on Season 3 of “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.” 

The injury required corrective surgery, marking another difficult chapter after experiencing ruptured implants in the past.

Richards gave credit to those who helped her get through, like her plastic surgeon and close friend Camille Grammer, who put her in touch with the specialist and offered support as she recovered.

She also shared snippets of her healing journey with her followers, stating that she was happy with the outcome and that she was feeling excited to regain her confidence.

The actress expressed her desire to be honest about her experience with breast implants and hoped she could share the challenges and recovery process with Grammer.

Denise Richards has played her cards; will she get an ace?
