Aaron Phypers, Denise Richard ex gets sued for breach of contract

A man has accused Denise Richards' estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, of making false promises to his dying wife.

Rupert Perry is demanding $126,000 (£95,000) that he claims Phypers owed his late wife, Katsioula-Beall, plus $21,000 (£16,000) in interest and other fees, Us Weekly reported.

Perry claims he served Phypers with the lawsuit over alleged fraud and breach of contract, but he has failed to respond to the case.

In his original lawsuit, Perry noted that his wife was diagnosed with sarcoma cancer in 2019 and when none of the standard treatments worked, they met with Phypers in June 2023 at his now-defunct wellness centre.

Perry claimed Phypers told him he had a treatment for her cancer that would "cure or at least ameliorate" her condition.

The suit claimed Phypers said the treatment had a 98 per cent success rate and offered a 50 per cent refund if the treatment did not work.

Katsioula-Beall paid Phypers $126,000 (£95,000) for the treatment. She died on 21 May, 2024.

At the time, a source close to Phypers told In Touch that he was a middleman and believed the company that provided the service should be responsible for the refund.

Perry's demand for the six-figure judgment comes as Aaron Phypers begs for support in his ongoing divorce from Denise Richards.
