Denise Richards and Tori Spelling are both Hollywood royalty — but they could have been sisters.
The second episode of Denise Richards and Her Wild Things featured Denise, 54, meeting up with Tori, 51, for lunch. The pair caught up about life when Denise brought up her dad, Irv Richards, and how he was almost set up with Candy Spelling.
“You know that a hairdresser, a long time ago, wanted to set my dad up with your mom,” Denise said. Tori responded, “Nope, didn’t know that.”
Denise said that her dad was “so intimidated” by the possibility.
“I mean, they’d be cute together,” Tori said. Denise added, “How great would that be? We could have been stepsisters.”

Tori joked, “That’s a show.”
Denise explained that her and Tori’s connection went way back — but they didn’t become friends until recent years.
“The first time I met Tori was on Beverly Hills, 90210. Then, Tori and I, we would just see each other at different events or shoots that we had,” Denise shared in her confessional. “We actually got to know each other, I would say in the last 15 years.”
The topic of Tori’s divorce from Dean McDermott was also brought up during the lunch.
“So, you’re single now?” Do you have a date?” Denise asked. “I think your divorce came at such a great time.”
Tori noted that it came at the “right time.” (The actress filed for divorce from Dean, 58, in March 2024. She listed their date of separation in June 2023.)
“Do you ever miss him there?” Denise asked. Tori replied, “I really miss someone fixing s— around the house.”

Denise said that her current husband, Aaron Phypers, is the “only” man she’s been with who can change a lightbulb.
“I can’t imagine [Denise’s ex-husband] Charlie [Sheen] screwing in a lightbulb,” Tori joked. “How many hookers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?”
Denise added, “I think I was a little more handy than he was. I grew up with my father who could build houses.”
The pair also talked about their mutual ex-boyfriend, actor Patrick Muldoon — and called him on the phone. (Denise said in her confessional that she and Patrick were together for “almost” five years when they broke up.)
“He said he was dating you and could not see you,” Denise recalled. “And I was very jealous.”
Denise Richards and Her Wild Things airs on Bravo Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
