By SARAH ABRAHAM FOR DAILYMAIL.COM Published: 17:35 EDT, 20 December 2020 | Updated: 18:59 EDT, 20 December 2020 Denise Richards and her family are getting out of town ahead of the holidays.

  The 49-year-old Wild Things actress and former Real Housewife Of Beverly Hills was seen arriving at LAX late Saturday night with her daughters Sami, 16, Lola, 15, and Eloise, nine.  Not

present for the outing was Denise's husband Aaron Phypers, 48, and while it was unclear where they were heading, she was ready with a passport. Putting on her usual casual display,

Richards wore jeans and a peach sweatshirt with sneakers, layering a black puffy jacket over the look.  She left her blonde mane down while carrying a Gucci bag as she wheeled a carry-on

sized suitcase behind her.  Adding a pop of sparkle she rocked a pink glittery face mask for the trip as mandated during travel.   All three daughters rocked comfortable attire as her

adopted daughter Eloise was seen clasping a doll in her hand.   Denise shares Lola and Sami with ex husband Charlie Sheen and current husband Phypers in the process of legally adopting

Eloise.   Speaking to People on Thursday about using social media to dispel rumors after she had a drama-filled last season on the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, Richards said: 

'It's hard being misunderstood and having stuff that is not true out there.'  'My older daughters, they're teenagers now and I can't keep stuff away from them

at all. They will hear everything.' She continued, 'I miss the time when I was able to shelter them from the negative publicity around our family quite frankly.' Richards

notoriously made headlines this past year after the plot of the hit Bravo show predominantly focused on her alleged affair with former castmate Brandi Glanville - which she vehemently

denied.  Getting the boot from the upcoming season of RHOBH back in September, many thought it was because she was over the drama that surrounded her but others reported she wanted too much

money.   'People think that she didn't want to come back and that it's because she got 'mean-girled'. The truth is she did want to come back. But [Bravo] didn't

want to pay her what she asked for. It was way out of her pay grade,' a source told Page Six.  With a reality career behind her for now she has been back to focusing on The Bold And

The Beautiful, saying that she was taking a break from shooting for the holidays.  She shared a photo of their family holiday card as they all looked radiant in white for the camera.
