"I wanted to be able to get out of it what I really, truly could," Richards said of her time on the competition show

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star recounts how her implants burst after jumping off of a bridge during the grueling challenge series. Knowing something was wrong with them after the fact, Richards was more concerned about how the bridge jump may have affected her four repaired hernias.

The pair appeared alongside each other during a 1991 episode of Saved by the Bell, where Cynthia (Richards) attempts to meet A.C. Slater (Lopez). (The series, which aired for four seasons from 1989 to 1993, followed a group of teens — including Lopez — navigating the highs and lows of high school.)

Denise Richards revealed why she initially turned down Special Forces: World's Toughest Test and shared what she learned about herself after injuring her breast implants on the Fox reality series.

Richards competed against Trista Sutter, Stephen Baldwin, Brody Jenner, Christy Carlson Romano, Cam Newton and others on the third season of “Special Forces,” set in Wales. The home of British Special Forces Selection, the country proved the perfect spot for the celebrity recruits to face the harsh realities of ocean warfare.

Denise Richards got extremely vulnerable in the Season 3 premiere of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star referenced a 2022 incident where she was shot at while driving in Los Angeles, comparing it to another “terrifying” moment in her life that she’d never spoken about publicly before.
