The actress showed proof to her Instagram followers, sharing a photo of the uncashed check, tagging Sheen and adding the song “Money” by Pink Floyd.

The reality star wrote in her Instagram story, “Found this during my recent move. I never cashed it, @CharlieSheen. Is it still good?!”

The check was dated Dec. 24, 2011, five years after their divorce was finalized.

DENISE RICHARDS TESTIFIES CHARLIE SHEEN MARRIAGE WAS EASIER THAN LIVING WITH ‘NARCISSIST’ AARON PHYPERS

She posted it days after Sheen said he wrote her a check for a million dollars, claiming she cashed it one month after he gave it to her, much to his surprise and shock, while appearing on the “KFC Radio” podcast.

Sheen did not clarify when he wrote her the check, noting he forgot if it was during their marriage or after their divorce.

The “Two and a Half Men” star said it was more of a symbolic gift to her, noting it was most likely for her birthday, but he couldn’t exactly recall.

Richards’ birthday is Feb. 17, and the check she shared was dated December.

“I mean, I don’t think she’ll be too mad,” he said on his podcast, referring to Richards being upset that he told the story.

“I wrote a check to Denise once for a million dollars on her birthday kind of as a joke, and she kept it not as a joke,” Sheen, who has been sober nearly eight years, explained.

“And then, like a month later, f—— cashed it,” he added. “Which makes it sting more.”

Sheen, who said he would have most likely cashed it too if it were him, said, “She couldn’t let me know just maybe the day of. ‘Hey, you sound like you’re driving somewhere.’ ‘Yeah, to the bank, actually!'”

He recalled feeling grateful that the check didn’t bounce.

Richards and Sheen wed in 2002 before separating in March 2005, when she was 6 months pregnant with their second child, daughter Lola.

In 2020, Richards reflected on leaving Sheen while she was pregnant with their second child during an episode of the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”

“When I got pregnant with Lola, things started to change rapidly. It was a very dark time and very toxic. And I filed for divorce when I was 6 months pregnant with her. I always did whatever I could to hide Charlie’s behavior.”

Richards and Sheen now have an amicable relationship.

Richards is also on good terms with Sheen’s third ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, whom he shares twin sons Max and Bob with.

The Grammy-winning singer revealed on social media she’s stepping away from the concert stage amid a wave of online body-shaming.

“I have decided to step away from performance for the foreseeable future and pursue some other creative and personal endeavors that I feel would better suit this next phase of my life,” Furtado wrote in an Instagram post marking the 25th anniversary of her debut album, “Whoa, Nelly!”

“I have enjoyed my career immensely, and I still love writing music, as I have always seen it as a hobby I was lucky enough to make into a career. I’ll identify as a songwriter forever,” she added.

The Canadian-born artist, best known for early 2000s hits including “I’m Like a Bird” and “Promiscuous,” reflected on her career journey in a nostalgic post celebrating the milestone.

“Twenty-five years ago today, my first album, ‘Whoa, Nelly!’ was released. In the first slide, I am 20 years old, about to play my first show as a professional artist at Lilith Fair,” she recalled. “I went down to a store called ‘Original’ on Queen West in Toronto and bought that pink dress and some sparkly platform shoes to perform in. It was so meaningful, and my artist self felt so actualized.

“Twenty-five years later, my music has reached a whole new generation of fans, and I couldn’t be happier about that.”

The singer expressed gratitude for the resurgence of her music, which has found new life through streaming platforms and social media.

Fox News Digital has reached out to Furtado’s reps for comment.

Furtado’s announcement comes just months after she addressed online critics following her bold fashion choices at Manchester Pride. At the time, the “Say It Right” singer hit back at trolls and celebrated her confidence, sending a message of self-acceptance to fans.

This past summer, Furtado wore an oversize white T-shirt featuring a cartoon image of a woman in a crop top and mini skirt while headlining the Manchester Pride festival.

She appeared to wear the shirt as a subtle response to body-shamers and had previously discussed pursuing legal action against online “charlatans.”

Earlier this year, Furtado shared a glowing selfie in an orange bikini and revealed that “body neutrality” was part of her 2025 wellness mindset.

“This year I became aware of the aesthetic pressure of my work in a brand-new way, while at the same time, I experienced new levels of self-love and genuine confidence from within,” she captioned the post.

Furtado also revealed that she recently took a stand against online scammers who were profiting off her name.

“I had to pursue legal action against a few charlatans online selling services based on health and beauty myths about me,” she wrote. “For whoever cares, I have never had any face or body surgeries or augmentation, except for veneers on the top row of my teeth, quite recently.”

The pop singer clarified that she has avoided cosmetic procedures altogether.

Furtado added that she has never had any “face or lip injections or fillers of any kind,” instead crediting her natural glow to simple skincare habits.

“I rely on my old-school facialist, from whom I purchase serums and creams — and I started that when I was 20,” she explained.

Jenner’s post comes just days after she marked the celebration of a decade of Kylie Cosmetics with family and friends, fueling buzz about a throwback to her “King Kylie” era.

A recent promo for her new King Kylie Cosmetics collection left fans divided, with critics describing it as “deeply out of touch.”

After sharing the teaser, Jenner’s comments section lit up with excitement from fans and friends alike. Hailey Bieber wrote “exactly,” while Lauren Sánchez Bezos added a raised-hands emoji. One fan exclaimed “KING KYLIE IS BACK,” as another chimed in, “We’re back.”

Still, not everyone was on board with the new campaign. Jenner drew criticism earlier this month after posting a short Instagram clip showing her walking handcuffed down a jail hallway surrounded by officers as part of a promo for the King Kylie relaunch.

Some social media users called the imagery “out of touch,” pointing to ongoing ICE raids and protests across the country and saying the video felt tone-deaf amid renewed conversations about law enforcement.

Kylie Cosmetics first hit the scene in November 2015 with the launch of Kylie Lip Kits, three lip shades that sold out in minutes. Just a few months later, Jenner expanded the line and officially reintroduced it as Kylie Cosmetics in February 2016.

Her fans have called on the star to do a nostalgic King Kylie era that brought colorful hair, statement lips and the start of her beauty empire. She shared a tweet and selfie Oct. 10, writing, “If I just so happen to do a King Kylie collection what products would u guys like to see.”

The “Selling Sunset” star shared that she and Tarek are currently in couples therapy, calling it a powerful tool for growth — not a sign of trouble.

“Tarek and I are in couples therapy, which I’m not ashamed to say,” Heather told Fox News Digital. “I think people are shocked to hear that.”

Heather, who married Tarek in 2021, said building a healthy partnership takes work, especially when blending families and bringing past experiences into a new chapter.

“Creating a healthy partnership … there’s ebbs and flows in marriage. There’s ups and downs,” she said. “Everyone starts out like, ‘Oh, this is going to be perfect, we’re going to be a happy little family’ … a lot of real life comes into play.”

The HGTV star said therapy plays an important role in their relationship — not as a last resort, but as a way to deepen understanding and connection.

“Therapy in general can be a beautiful thing,” she added. “You learn a lot about each other, about yourself, past traumas, past childhood issues … that you bring into your marriage.”

Despite their differences, Heather said she and Tarek are committed to growing — together and individually.

“In the end, we’re two completely different people just trying to grow together, grow individually, raise happy, healthy little humans and be the best versions of ourselves.”

“To be honest, we’ve thrown around the idea of swapping partners for Season 2 — me and Christina going against Tarek,” Heather told Fox News Digital. “Because Tarek thinks he’s unbeatable, and I truly think Christina and I joining forces … we could beat him.”

“It would be very hard. He knows so much about flipping houses, but Christina and I have learned a lot,” she said.

In a candid conversation with Howard Stern, the “Zoolander” star reflected on his complex childhood as the son of beloved comedy legends Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara.

While his upbringing gave him an inside view of show business, it also offered a glimpse at the toll fame can take behind closed doors.

“Growing up around it — and we talk [in the movie] about all those things I saw with my parents — you actually, as a kid, see the dark underside of it. The stress. The effect it has on relationships,” Stiller told Stern, referring to his upcoming documentary, “Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost.”

“You see that up close as a kid, and you still want to go into it.”

Stiller, 59, explained that while his parents’ success opened doors, it also gave him an unfiltered look at the highs and lows of Hollywood life.

His new documentary explores his parents’ partnership — both professional and personal — and how their relationship helped define his own sense of humor and ambition.

Despite seeing the struggles that come with fame, Stiller said he never doubted his calling.

“If you have the passion, you do it,” he shared.

The actor and filmmaker, known for hit movies like “Meet the Parents” and “Tropic Thunder,” admitted that revisiting his parents’ journey through the lens of the documentary taught him as much about himself as it did about them.

“I cut you out of ‘Secret Life of Walter Mitty.’ It’s probably the worst decision I ever made in my life,” the 59-year-old told his daughter, 23, according to People magazine.

Ella Stiller admitted the decision made sense creatively, saying the scene where she was meant to play Mitty’s daughter “didn’t really make sense in the movie.”

But for Stiller, the choice carried more weight.

“For me, it kind of goes deeper,” he explained. “What it relates to is my own issues with my own obsessions with my work, or perfectionism.”

His documentary, “Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost,” focuses on his parents, a mid-century comedy duo who later became sitcom regulars on “Seinfeld,” “Sex and the City” and “The King of Queens.”

Lockhart died of natural causes at her home in Santa Monica, California, with her daughter, June Elizabeth, and granddaughter, Christianna, by her side, Fox News Digital has learned.

“Iconic and legendary actress of stage and screen June Lockhart dies, leaving a legacy of nearly 90 years of American entertainment history,” her rep shared.

Lockhart was born in New York City on June 25, 1925. She made her stage debut at just 8 years old in the 1933 production of “Peter Ibbetson” at the Metropolitan Opera House. By 13, she had already appeared on the silver screen, joining her parents, Gene and Kathleen Lockhart, in MGM’s 1938 adaptation of “A Christmas Carol.”

She quickly shared scenes with Hollywood legends, appearing in “All This and Heaven Too” with Bette Davis and Charles Boyer and, in 1941, playing Rosie, the sister of Gary Cooper’s character in “Sergeant York,” directed by Howard Hawks.

By 19, Lockhart was under contract with MGM, earning acclaim as Lucille Ballard in “Meet Me in St. Louis,” directed by Vincente Minnelli.

In 1947, Lockhart made her Broadway debut in “For Love or Money,” earning a Tony Award — then called the Antoinette Perry Award — for “best newcomer.” She made history as the first-ever recipient of the honor. At the time, The American Theatre Wing presented men with lighters and women with small gold medallions.

In the 1950s, she won hearts as the gentle, soft-voiced mom in “Lassie.”  (Getty Images)

Lockhart’s own medallion — the first Tony ever presented — was donated to the Smithsonian Institution in 2008, where it remains part of the museum’s permanent entertainment archives.

Lockhart’s warmth and grace translated perfectly to television, where she became one of America’s most beloved matriarchs.

In the 1950s, she won hearts as the gentle, soft-voiced mom in “Lassie,” often working from scripts written by blacklisted writers during the Red Scare. In the 1960s, she boldly went from the family farm to the stars, portraying Maureen Robinson, the steadfast “space mom” in “Lost in Space.”

LONI ANDERSON’S DEATH THRUSTS TURBULENT BURT REYNOLDS ROMANCE BACK INTO THE SPOTLIGHT

“The premise of the series [intrigued me],” Lockhart told Fox News Digital in September 2024 of her involvement in “Lost in Space.”

“It was a view of family dynamics of a marooned group of scientists and two children and how they survived,” she shared. “It was ‘Space Family Robinson,’ a play on ‘Swiss Family Robinson.’ … Each of my costars was a wonderful professional. It was a very happy set with lots of laughs and genuine affection between us.”

Lockhart also told Fox News Digital it was “great” that many still recognized her as their favorite TV mom.

Despite having a secret rebellious side on set, she’s always been proud of her squeaky-clean image. She was never tempted to take on a sultry role in Hollywood, nor did she feel pressured over the years to look a certain way.

“I was not offered those parts,” she said. “[And] I always eat carefully. … In that silver spacesuit, you had better be in shape.”

Later, she joined “Petticoat Junction” as Dr. Janet Craig and even lent her voice to Nickelodeon’s cult favorite “Ren & Stimpy,” showing her range and humor spanned generations.

While Lockhart shined on screen, her passion stretched far beyond Hollywood. With two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame — and five total for the Lockhart family — she also became a beloved figure in the space community.

A lifelong science enthusiast, she served as a NASA spokesperson and attended countless launches and landings, often standing beside astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.

In 2013, NASA honored her with the “Exceptional Public Achievement Medal,” recognizing her decades-long advocacy for space exploration. Her daughter, June Elizabeth, said that tribute meant more to her than any Hollywood accolade.

“Mommy always considered acting as her craft, her vocation, but her true passions were journalism, politics, science and NASA,” her daughter shared. “She cherished playing her role in ‘Lost in Space,’ and she was delighted to know that she inspired many future astronauts, as they would remind her on visits to NASA. That meant even more to her than the hundreds of television and movie roles she played.”

Astronauts even carried her father’s 1921 composition, “The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise,” aboard the International Space Station.

Her father’s activism as a founding member of the Screen Actors Guild in the 1930s also shaped her lifelong belief in fair working conditions. Lockhart joined AFRA (later AFTRA) in 1938 and SAG in 1940, eventually earning the Guild’s prestigious Founders Award in 2018.

Her adventurous spirit never dimmed. Encouraged by her dear friend, architect and environmentalist Harry Gessner, Lockhart embraced every opportunity life offered, from singing onstage with Willie Nelson to attending White House press briefings dating back to the Eisenhower administration.

Her family said her energy and humor were “endless.”
