Real Housewives, Real Cash! Denise Richards Signs $4 Million ‘RHOBH’ Contract

It’s only her first season, but Denise Richards could soon be the highest paid Housewife in history!

Multiple sources told RadarOnline.com exclusively that the actress will rake in about $1 million for her first year on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

According to an insider, she even signed a lucrative contract to earn $4 million in four years.

“She was guaranteed to appear on the show for four seasons,” the insider claimed.

Producers are desperate to keep Richards’ salary on the down-low, but according to a source, the cat is out of the bag regarding her big bucks — and her costars are angry.

“The other ladies are pissed off about it,” the source said.

(A source close to Richards told RadarOnline.com she "was not paid anywhere near $4 million.")

The source insisted Charlie Sheen’s ex, 47, will show her life as a mom to her three kids: Sam, 14, Lola, 13, and Eloise, 7.

But it’s unclear how much of her tumultuous relationship with Sheen will make it to the small screen.

The former couple certainly has a lot of drama. As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the ever-erratic Sheen filed court documents to have his $20,000-a-month child support to Richards significantly lowered, as he claimed he was “blacklisted” from Hollywood and no longer earning a sizable income.

But a source told RadarOnline.com that Richards was furious with her baby daddy’s request, and will fight the filing in court.

“Denise is going to bring some serious drama to Beverly Hills,” the source insisted.

Other high-paid housewives include RHOA star Nene Leakes, who as RadarOnline.com reported, made $2 million in 2017, and RHONY star Bethenny Frankel, who made $1.5 million for her 2016 return to the show.
