Denise Richards has been granted permission to include her two children in her new reality TV show.

The actress is said to be “very happy” after a Los Angeles court allowed three-year-old Sam and two-year-old Lola to be filmed for the series, which follows her life as an actress and single mum in Hollywood.

Her ex-husband Charlie Sheen had refused to give his permission for the girls to be appear on TV, but the judge ruled in Richards' favour.

The decision was subject to a number of conditions, which have not been revealed.

Richards' attorney spoke to the court by telephone, while Sheen attended the hearing with his lawyer.
