After finding out that her husband cheated on her, Hollywood actress Denise Richards went immediately to a clinic to verify whether she was HIV positive or not. Her representative said that she had checked in Thousand Oaks in the state of California to check if her ex husband, Martin Sheen, has given her any disease that could be the result of her sexual interaction with him. Also checked were the possibility of any other kind of disease that it could have brought. The actress had been trying to make peace with her ex husband for about ten months now. The break was initiated when the couple was on holiday in Barbados where Denise saw Sheen kissing another woman at the seaside. They have appealed to have a private judge adjudicate their case, according to such a request filed on the fourth of January.

Martin wants joint custody of their two children while Richards wants sole custody. The couple were married on the 15th of June, '02. They separated two years and nine months later. Their two children are Sam and Lola, a year and eleven months and eight months respectively.
