The Intriguing Story of Denise Richards' Daughter Sami Sheen

The Early Years of Sami Sheen

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Denise Richards is the mother of three daughters, including Sami Sheen. Two seasons after making her debut, Denise left RHOBH after a controversy surrounding her relationship with former cast member Brandi Glanville. Denise and Brandi were rumored to have spent an intimate night together, although Denise was married to her now-husband, Aaron Phypers. Despite Denise's denial, her co-stars refused to believe her, leading to Denise's exit. However, while on RHOBH, viewers watched Denise as she raised her daughters Sami Sheen, Lola Sheen, and Eloise in her Beverly Hills home. Despite some of her controversial behavior on the show, Denise never played around with her kids and was always protective of them. However, since she left the show, Denise has often found herself in the news due to the antics of her oldest daughter, Sami.

Sami made her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills debut alongside her mother, Denise, in 2018. Besides being born to parents who were TV stars, Sami herself wasn't new to the screen, having appeared in shows like Two and Half Men, and her mother's spin-off series Denise Richards: It's Complicated. Sami, who was in high school then, felt right at home on RHOBH. Sami even created a memorable moment on the show after her mother, Denise, told her to turn down anyone who asked her to homecoming. The teenager replied, 'You guys are so freaking strict, now I want a boyfriend because you told me I can't have one.' Sami would go on to appear in six RHOBH episodes in total.

Denise gave birth to Sami on March 29, 2004, in Los Angeles, two years after she married veteran actor Charlie Sheen. The couple welcomed Sami's sister, Lola, just a year later. During the children's early years, Denise and Charlie tried to keep them out of the limelight. However, when Sami was just four years old, Denise and Charlie filed for divorce in 2006. Throughout her childhood, Sami had to move between her parents' home in Los Angeles constantly (via People).

Challenges and Controversies

In 2021, 17-year-old Sami called out her mother on TikTok and revealed she had moved out of Denise's 'hell house' and was now living with her father, Charlie. According to reports, Sami and Denise were at odds due to Denise's rules towards her daughter. Sami wasn't ready to abide by Denise's rules because she believed they were too strict. Denise had reportedly installed cameras to catch Sami if she brought boys home. Sami and Denise were able to settle their differences, and on Mother's Day in 2022, Sami even dedicated a post to her mother via her Instagram page.

A few months after her 18th birthday in 2022, Sami took to her Instagram page to announce she was joining the adult page OnlyFans. Sami posted a link to her page on the website, where she posted racy content. Before her first anniversary on the platform, Sami spoke of her desire to get breast enhancement surgery, which would make her feel 'fully confident' in her body. Finally, in September 2023, Sami underwent a boob job more than a year after she first mentioned it. Sami documented her road to recovery after the surgery on social media. Sami's decision to get a boob job was not wholly welcomed by RHOBH veteran Denise, who spoke publicly about trying to talk Sami out of it all to no avail (via Bustle). Nonetheless, Sami, who has over time referred to herself as a 'sex worker' but doesn't post any sexual content on her OnlyFans, has been teasing her fans about releasing a topless post to show off her new boobs.
