Denise Richards as Lisa | Then
One of few long-lived relationships in Charlie’s repertoire, he and Lisa lived together and he acknowledged her as his girlfriend. The more serious the relationship grew the more apparent it became that the emotionally stunted Charlie was looking for the door. After the doomed relationship had run its course Lisa got married. She kept contact with Charlie promising to call if she ever got divorced. As one does. Low and behold she got divorced. Charlie and Lisa were reunited but he proved an unsurprisingly inadequate partner and co-parent to her and her child.
Denise Richards as Lisa | Now
Denise Richards was married to Charlie Sheen. She was not under duress. This was of her own free will, we checked. She reaped the rewards four years and two daughters later when she left him due to his severe problems with addiction and incessant cheating. There were brief periods of civility between the two, but Sheen has continuously managed to stir the pot and disrupt any possibility of an amicable co-parenting relationship. Richards has full custody of their children.
