Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller, who were both previously married to Charlie Sheen, have documented their special bond on Bravo’s new show Denise Richards & Her Wild Things. During the March 11 episode, while Denise and her two daughters planned a memorial for a pet lizard that Mueller recently lost, they made a not-so-shocking revelation.
“With Brooke, I pray that she is okay,” Lola, 19, began. “I think she was married to my dad. I actually…”
After thinking about it, Lola hesitantly concluded, “Yeah, they got married — I’m pretty sure.”
In her confessional, 20-year-old Sami wondered the same thing.
“Was she married?” she asked Denise, 54. “She was married to him?”
Laughing, Denise replied, “You didn’t know she was married to your dad?”
“No,” Sami insisted, before her mom revealed: “You were there!”
Sami then asked how old she was for the wedding, which took place in May 2008 when she was 4 and Lola was just shy of 3. The pair later divorced in 2011.
“I don’t know s—!” Sami exclaimed, as Denise teased back, “Clearly.”
Mueller has appeared in Denise’s latest reality show several times since its premiere on March 4, but it is not the first time the two have been open about their close relationship.
In September, Mueller joined the Hollywood Raw podcast with Dax Holt and Adam Glyn, where she reflected on her history with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum.
“[We] get along very, very well,” Mueller shared, although she admitted “it was not always good.”
“The reason why our relationship wasn’t good, it didn’t have to do with Denise, it was my addiction,” she added.
In 2012, Denise, who had been married to Sheen from 2002 until 2006, offered to care for the then-4-year-old boys Mueller shared with Sheen after social workers from L.A.’s Department of Child and Family Services became alarmed by Mueller’s erratic behavior. Denise kept custody of the twins until May 2013.
“It’s like I have that Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde thing, so it really wasn’t anything she did,” Mueller joked. “She actually did step up and tried to step up, and was very helpful.”
Mueller also revealed that she was nine months sober at the time the podcast recorded following a recent relapse, and she attributed some of her success to Denise.
“In fact, she was really helpful with me recently too, last year,” she noted.
