Denise Richards shared the limelight with her youngest daughter, Eloise, on September 9 as the duo made a rare appearance together in Los Angeles.
The 55-year-old walked the red carpet at the 2026 Daytime Beauty Awards with her 15-year-old, who matched her mom in a floral print dress.
Eloise opted for a floor-length white frock with dainty pink floral embroidery, spaghetti straps, and a crochet trim along the hem and neckline.
Denise, meanwhile, wore a sheer, sleeveless dress with large green and blue embroidered flowers and open-toe strappy silver heels.
The duo's joint appearance comes four months after Denise celebrated Eloise's 15th birthday with a heartfelt tribute alongside a compilation video of Eloise's fun-filled year with her family.
"Wishing my beautiful Eloise Happy 15th Birthday! I can't believe 15 yrs old already," Denise began in her May 25 post.
"Having a special needs child in a lot of ways gets more challenging with me worrying more about her future the older she gets. My mom always had said, a special needs child is an angel from God and Eloise is the biggest Angel with the biggest selfless heart."
She continued: "I'm so proud of her strength and kindness. I'm so grateful for her older sisters, my friends who are my family, and my dad who is the best Grandpa & father figure for Eloise. Always there for her, no matter what.
"We [love] you girlie! Happy birthday weezy oh and she loves this song," Denise added, referring to the track "HUNTR/X" from the Netflix movie KPop Demon Hunters, which accompanied the video.
Ahead of Eloise's big day, Denise told People: "She's turning 15 and it's crazy to think. It's hard, too, because she's not going to be able to drive, but she's at that age… But yeah, no, it goes so fast."
Denise adopted Eloise in 2011 when she was an infant and shares her with her ex-husband, actor Aaron Phypers, whom she married in 2018. Aaron filed for divorce in July 2025 after six years of marriage. She is also mom to daughters Lola, 20, and Sami, 22, with ex Charlie Sheen.
Eloise's diagnosis
In 2016, Eloise was diagnosed with a deletion in chromosome 8 at age five, which affects her development and speech capabilities.
In a candid interview with People in 2019, Denise described the emotional rollercoaster of caring for Eloise, whose understanding and emotions vary significantly.
"And there are times when she feels like her age in understanding, and then other times where it feels she's emotionally 3 years old. It's been challenging," Denise admitted.
Despite these challenges, Denise remains an unwavering advocate for Eloise. "I'm learning every day because they don't really have a road map for her particular case," she explained.
"You take care of your children no matter what is going on with them. I don't know if [Eloise] is ever going to talk like a typical child. But as a parent, you want what's best for your children, and you just do it."
