The two were married from 2002 to 2006 and share daughters Sam, 16, and Lola, 14.
In a recent interview with Us Weekly, Richards, 49, opened up about the current state of her relationship with Sheen, 54.

Richards, a cast member on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," said that while she's discussed the custody battle between Sheen and herself on the show, her ex-husband "doesn’t watch the shows."

She added: "We try to keep [the show] separate from things, but he hasn’t even said anything other than very positive [feedback]. It’s all good.”
