Lola then revealed that her connection with Charlie has improved, especially since he's supported her when it comes to her “hypochondriac” tendencies.

“My life is way more enjoyable when we have a relationship because if not, it’s like, I hate having that feeling of not talking,” she admitted. “Obviously, we go through ups and downs sometimes, but our relationship is good. When I really started to struggle with my mental health, he really helped me because he’s not very emotional, so he kind of gets straight to the point, and I think that’s what helped me in moments of anxiety. That’s when we got way closer.”

Looking back, Denise has been honest about the impact their relationship had on their daughters. During a past episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the actress, now married to Aaron Phypers, reflected, “I just feel like I f------ up a lot with their dad. I don’t want them to look back at their childhood and remember [fights].”

As Denise's reality show Denise Richards and Her Wild Things premiered on March 4 — in which Charlie is set to make a guest appearance — she shared that her ex has been supportive of the project from the start.

“Charlie is always invited to holiday dinners," she told People. “There’s always an open door and that goes for Brooke [Mueller] and the boys as well. I’m always, the more the merrier. I want everyone to get along and everyone to be peaceful.”

She also hopes the show will give people a real look at their household and the challenges they’ve faced.

“I think that a lot of people will be able to relate to [it],” she explained. “It’s not easy having a blended family. It’s not easy being divorced no matter what the circumstances are, but you do your best to try to keep things as positive and peaceful as possible.”

Us Weekly interviewed Denise and her daughters.
