Yet another celebrity couple finds their good-looking marriage on the rocks. Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards are the latest Hollywood couple to file for divorce. The actors filed the court papers on Wednesday, reports USA Today.

Charlie, son of screen legend Martin Sheen, met Richards while shooting Good Advice in 2000. They began dating after Richards guest-starred on Sheen's television series Spin City. They married in June 2002, and were seen together in the spoof, Scary Movie 3.

Richards, a 34-year-old former James Bond girl, is six months pregnant with Charlie's second child. The couple have a daughter, Sam, who will be a year old next week.

Sheen, 39, was married once before the wedding with Richards. Currently starring in the CBS sitcom, Two And A Half Men, he's remembered for his work in films Platoon, Hot Shots, Wall Street and Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

Richards is best known for glamorous roles in films like The World Is Not Enough and Wild Things. She's currently working on Stuart Gordon's Edmond.
