Denise Richards is a mom -- again!
The actress, 40, recently adopted a baby girl domestically, her rep confirms to Us Weekly. Richards named her daughter Eloise Joni after her mother, who lost her battle with cancer in 2007.
"Denise and Eloise's big sisters couldn't be happier and feel incredibly blessed," the actress' rep tells Us.
The Wild Things star has two daughters -- Sam, 7, and Lola, 5 -- from her previous marriage to Charlie Sheen.
Tell Us What You Think
18Good for her and how lucky the little girl is to have such a caring and loving mother...
I think it's awesome, and I think Denise is a very caring mother, and this new daughter is very lucky.
Is she nuts!?? What is her source of income? This just blew me away. Crazy, to my way of thinking.
it's interesting how things, no matter how good they are, can be turned into bad things. Adopting a child (whatever their age and where they are from) is a good thing - period. I'm happy for Denise and her girls and Eloise is a cute, normal name.
There is a long line of couples waiting for a BABY to adopt, but this lady gets to take cuts and doesn't need to be married to get that BABY. Meanwhile, children who are not BABIES are still waiting, because everyone wants an infant. Yay for Denise and Sandra, but I'd have liked it if they had adopted an older child.
She is obviously a loving, caring mother who has done her best to shield her kids from the unstable and destructive behavior of their father and the darker side of Hollywood. I say congrats!
Domestically! Wow, usually people like Jolie and Madonna go overseas, thanks to this and people like Sandra Bullock there is a realization that American babies need adoption and love also.
@Jesse, WOW you are a bitter, hateful person. I have read your comments in the past and never a nice word. She adopted a baby, that is a beautiful thing. Im sure you dont do anything beautiful..just hate and bash. Get some help before you hurt someone!
Nobody was referring her as a saint.
Wake up people! Yea, she is a lot more sane than Charlie Sheen but not a winner! Stop acting like adopting a child makes you a saint! Just cause you can sign a piece of paper doesnt make you an angel.
Denise is evil
Congrats to her and her girls!
why is anyone hating on this woman for doing somehthing good and offering a child a home who might not have got one?
Never thought she would have turned out to be the sane one. Good for her for adopting and domestically at that. Great name, too.
Whats wrong with her adopting a child?? Huh? You don't know what kind of mother she is.
Why in the world would she adopt a child?! And more importantly who the hell who would let her?!
a good distraction from her kids nutjob father.
Cute name, Congrats to her.
