Actress Denise Richards Suffers Breast Implant Tragedy During Filming

Sometimes itโ€™s easy to think that celebrities live an easy, glamorous life, but thatโ€™s not always the case. In fact, sometimes the projects they work on are anything but glamorous and are actually very dangerous.

Denise Richards recently competed on the celebrity reality competition show โ€œSpecial Forces Season 3.โ€ She told SiriusXMโ€™s Jeff Lewis Live that she signed her โ€œlife awayโ€ in order to compete on the show, and she told PEOPLE that her daughters were scared for her and didnโ€™t want her to compete on the reality show.

Richards explained that her daughters โ€œdid not want me to do it. They were afraid I was going to get hurt or get killed, and they were actually really angry.โ€ She added, โ€œIt was the first time of all the times Iโ€™ve done different projects or traveled they were very upset with me.โ€

They probably had good reason to be worried. Richards describes herself as โ€œnot athletic at all.โ€

So why did she agree to do the project anyway? She said, โ€œI thought, โ€˜This is the most challenging thing Iโ€™ll ever do, and why not do it?โ€™ I was terrified, but once I made the commitment to do it, I was there.โ€

While Richards survived, she did suffer one big tragedy during filming. She joined her husband Aaron Phypers on โ€œJeff Lewis Liveโ€ and explained that during one challenge when she jumped off a bridge the harness she was wearing ruptured both of her breast implants.

She added, โ€œI still have to get them redone.โ€ She explained, โ€œI was supposed to a month ago but couldnโ€™t because we were filming, so yeah, no, I still have to get them redone.โ€

She also added that she thinks sheโ€™ll have to pay to get them redone herself. Insurance doesnโ€™t cover it, and she assumes that the show wonโ€™t cover it, but her husband added, โ€œMaybe we can work that in after the fact.โ€
