Did Patrick Muldoon Ever Have a Wife?

No, Patrick was never married. He was previously romantically linked to Denise Richards in the late 1990s, but their romance eventually fizzled out. They remained friends, though, since they worked together on several projects, including Starship Troopers and Dirty Hands, which came out last year. They also filmed a music video together for his song “Gray Again.”

Though fans wanted to believe Patrick and Denise still had feelings for each other, he recently denied that assumption in an interview on Tori Spelling‘s “misSPELLING” podcast in late 2025.

“The thing about Denise and I is everybody thinks we met on Starship Troopers, but we met in acting class when she was 19 and I was 21,” Patrick revealed. “We both don’t come from entertainment families, and our families got to know each other over the years and kind of checked in with each other on navigating the crazy stuff that we all go through.”

After acknowledging that they dated “on and off in the ’90s,” Patrick pointed out that he and Denise were “very tight buddies, and she’s going through a rough spot right now with everything. I wish her the best for sure, and we’re friends.”
