In a new lawsuit against her ex-husband Charlie Sheen, Denise Richards alleges he has cut off child support payments to their two daughters Sam, 11, and Lola, 10, and that he’s made threatening statements to Richards.
Sheen, 50, has subjected Richards, 44, to disgusting torrents of abuse via his Twitter account before, so it’s hardly surprising to hear he does it to her face, too.
Richards claims that in 2013 during a phone conversation before she departed for a Christmas holiday to Montana with their daughters, he told her:
“I’m looking at a picture of your parents sleeping. I had someone go into their house, give Xanax to the dog, and instead of killing them, I’d rather your mom die a slow death of cancer.
“I am not going to do the same to you. If you get between me and the kids, I am going to sever your head and mail it to your father.”
Richards’ mother Joni died in 2007 after a long battle with cancer.
According to the suit, Sheen once texted daughter Lola: “Your dad is a rock star genius … Your mom is a p–s wart,” and that he called the girl a “[bleeping] pig whore” and told her, “I’m going to kill you and I’m going to kill your mom.”
An attorney for Sheen denies the allegations, saying Richards’ lawsuit is about “nothing more than money, money, money”.
“Denise Richards is not satisfied that she has received $660,000 tax free each year for almost 10 years,” Marty Singer said, reports People.
“It is not enough money for her, besides the approximate $10 million she has received from Charlie under her short marriage.”
According to the lawsuit, Richards is seeking $1.2 million to purchase a new home for herself and her daughters. Sheen had promised to provide housing for them under the terms of a trust for the girls, according to legal documents, but evicted them from a home he had previously purchased for them.

I always liked Charlie Sheen on TV and sort of put blinders on about his actual behaviour and character in real life, but at the end of the day no matter how much of a 'boys will be boys' game you want to play, he really is just a horrible sick man. To be honest I think Denise Richards is a saint. Not only does she try to get her kids to have a good relationship with their father, she puts up with the constant revolving door of insults and nastiness he throws at her both in public ways and private, and above all when his other children were in a bad situation with a mother in rehab and a father who isn't even able to take care of himself, she took those little boys in and gave them a loving stable home when they most needed it. After all the crap she was put through by those boys' parents, it would have been so easy to take that out on the children and wash her hands of the whole lot of them. But no, she took them in and treated them like her own. I just think that is amazing and a really remarkable thing for someone to do. I have never seen her as unreasonable or money grubbing. She really just seems to want a fair amount for her children and to have them taken care of financially. I really see her as a normal mum. It makes me so sad to see her being destroyed and slandered in the media, especially with her girls being old enough to understand now. And Charlie using the kids to send vile messages and threatening their mum and themselves is just disgusting. Totally unacceptable.
It's nice though to see that there are some good people out in Hollywood and that some people really are just interested in looking after their children properly.
couldn't agree more!
