Denise Richards has opened up about her marriage with her ex-husband, Charlie Sheen and revealed the specific thing he 'banned' her from doing altogether.
The 54-year-old The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was married to Sheen, 59, for four years between 2002 to 2006 and share two daughters with him, Sami and Lola Rose.
However, before tying the knot with the Two and a Half Men actor, Richards was very much so loved up with her ex-boyfriend, Patrick Muldoon, who she just so happens to co-star with in his brand-new 'Gray Again' music video.

Flash-forward over two decades to Tuesday's (25 March) episode of Richards' Bravo reality TV show Denise Richards & Her Wild Things, the pair connected once again as she reflected on their decades-long 'deep' friendship.
"Mine and Pat’s relationship romantically was years ago and it’s just a deep friendship," Richards, who is now wed to fellow actor Aaron Phyphers, explained in a confessional. "I’m so grateful Aaron respects that because Charlie, he had a hard time with my relationship with Pat."
However, such a friendship was seemingly put on ice during her and Sheen's marriage as she revealed: "I did not speak to Pat when I was married to Charlie and it was hard because I didn’t want to lose him as a friend friend.
"But, towards the end of the marriage, I talked to him all the time about him."
Richards, who is now married to Aaron Phyphers, and her ex-boyfriend, Patrick Muldoon, starred as love interests in his latest music video (Instagram/@thepatrickmuldoon) Richards and Sheen's eldest child, Sami, wasn't shy in sharing her thoughts on her mum starring in her ex's new rock video.
"He’s very flirty with her, I’m not gonna lie," the 21-year-old said to the camera. "I don’t want to get him in trouble, but I feel like he might still have feelings for my mum."
Also thinking of Phyphers, who Richards tied the knot with in 2018, she said: "How is he fine with it? They have like 30 years of history."
The whole thing was clearly a breeze for him though as he assured: "Patrick and I, we have a very good relationship. I don’t get jealous like that."
"I don’t think you’ve ever felt like, 'Oh, this is her ex-boyfriend.' Like, I even forget I dated him," Denise continued, before her hubby replied with a smile: "I’m very confident in our relationship because I know what I can do."
After starring in Muldoon's video, which saw Richards portray his love interest, she asked: "Was it weird for you to see me kiss another man?"
"No. Not in that setting," Phyphers explained: "If I’m driving to a restaurant and your sucking lips with somebody else, that would be f**king weird."
