Denise Richards has reportedly claimed that she often enjoys casual sex with her friends.

According to The Sun, the actress, who split up from boyfriend Richie Sambora last year, is not interested in settling down.

She told Globe magazine: "Friends with benefits are awesome. I used to be like, 'Oh no, you have to be in a relationship'.

"But after going through a divorce, I'm like, 'Life is short, I wanna have a good time'."

Richards was married to Charlie Sheen from 2002 to 2005, while they have two daughters together.
