Denise Richards’ daughters reveal what they think of dad Charlie Sheen’s ‘tiger blood’ phase

Denise Richards’ daughters reveal what they think of dad Charlie Sheen’s ‘tiger blood’ phase

Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen’s daughters Sami, 20, and Lola, 19, gave some rare insight into what it is like growing up with their famous parents. 

In order to maintain some normalcy during their unconventional childhood, the former couple’s two kids shared that they have never seen their mom’s infamous thriller, Wild Things, and tend to avoid googling their mom or dad, who divorced in 2006.

When asked if they’ve ever searched the web for more information on their dad’s ‘tiger blood’ catchphrase during a sit-down with People, Sami and Lola had a ‘puzzled’ reaction to the question. 

‘The only thing that rings a bell with tiger blood is a snow cone flavor, that’s about it,’ Sami said, before Lola also admitted to being out of the loop on the reference. 

Richards, then, explained: ‘I’ve never talked to them about that.’

In 2011, Charlie went on a series of rants and off-the-rails interviews, which included him stating that he was drinking ‘tiger blood’ and had ‘Adonis DNA.’

At the time, Sami and Lola, who are set to star on a new reality show with their mom next month, were just seven and six. 

‘People always say what’s it like having famous parents?’ Sami said. ‘I don’t know. They are my parents. It’s not weird. What would be weird would be if I walked into a bank and they were working there — or Starbucks. That would be more out of the ordinary than seeing them on TV because that’s all we know.’

While filming the show, Richards revealed that she did ‘discover things’ that their ‘daughters didn’t know’ that made them ‘upset’ that she hadn’t shared with them directly. 

‘I always tried to protect them. I filed for divorce when I was pregnant with Lola (in 2005). You don’t think, “Oh when they’re 19 and 20, they’re going to read about all this.” I always thought they’ll never find out what happened and the opposite. I told them if they have any questions to come to me and I will honestly answer the best I can,’ Richards told the outlet. 

Richards also told the outlet that she has a friendly relationship with Sheen and his other ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, who is the mother of his sons Bob and Max, now 15. 

In 2013, Richards became the legal guardian to the former couple’s twin boys after they were removed from Mueller’s home when she allegedly created an ‘unsafe’ environment for them. 

‘I’m grateful we were able to help them during that time,’ she told People. 

Richards noted that her door is always ‘open’ for Sheen, Mueller, and their sons.

‘Charlie is always invited to holiday dinners,’ she explained. ‘There’s always an open door and that goes for Brooke and the boys as well. I’m always, the more the merrier. I want everyone to get along and everyone to be peaceful.’ 

Mueller even makes several appearances on her new show, which follows Richards and her family.

In addition to Sami and Lola, Richards adopted a daughter, named Eloise, 13, back in 2011. 

Richards has been married to Aaron Phypers since 2018.

Richards spoke highly of her ex.

‘He’s been supportive from day one,’ she told the outlet of Sheen, whom she was married to from 2002 to 2006.

‘He saw the trailer and sent me such a wonderful sweet positive text,’ she continued. ‘I was actually really surprised. It meant a lot to me.’

Sheen wed Mueller in 2008 – but their marriage was rocky as both had well-documented struggles with addiction.

Sheen has been sober since 2017 while Mueller in September celebrated nine months of sobriety.

During their marriage, Sheen was arrested for allegedly attacking his wife. Mueller claimed to police that the actor had held a knife to her throat and threatened her but she later tried to recant her statement.

Richards, then, explained: 'I've never talked to them about that' (Richards and Sheen seen in 2003)

He was arrested on three charges – second-degree ᴀssault, which is often used to describe causing actual bodily harm, menacing behavior, and criminal mischief, or damaging property. He was eventually released on bail after paying a £5,000 bond.

Ultimately, Sheen pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of misdemeanor ᴀssault, which kept him out of jail. He was sentenced to 30 days in rehab, 30 days of probation and 36 hours of anger management, the AP reported at the time.

A year later, the couple split. Months later, the actor engaged in a series of now infamous public meltdowns in early 2011 that led to him being fired from the his hit sitcom Two And A Half Men.

Sheen and Mueller came to a custody agreement in 2011 and finalized their divorce shortly after.
