DENISE Richards denied she was “on drugs” during last night’s RHOBH reunion after fans were alarmed by her bloodshot-red eyes. 

The 49-year-old was in the line of fire from her Housewives co-stars and host Andy Cohen, 52, during part one of the Bravo special on Wednesday.

As she confronted this season’s explosive drama head-on, fans couldn’t help but notice her red pupils.

“Was Denise Richards high or had she been crying on the #RHOBHReunion? Her eyes are red,” one viewer noticed.

While another agreed and questioned: “So was Denise high?? Her eyes were very red.”

“Denise’s eyes were extremely red and her entire look was crazy. I want to like her but she’s coming off so sloppy,” one critic wrote.

The comments caught the attention of Denise herself, who clarified the look in her Instagram comments.

“I am allergic to powder, I’ve tried so many. I hate it. As soon as it’s used on my face, my eyes get bright red immediately.

“And my nose runs (so lovely). At first, drops help but as the day goes on, nothing does.”

The Wild Things actress then asked her fans for recommendations or tricks to help with the cosmetic problem.

She then took to Twitter to clap back at online trolls who also slammed her RHOBH reunion appearance.

One viewer said that “all” Denise does is “run away from her real problems” and alleged she is also “clearly on drugs” during last night’s episode.

The soap opera star defended herself: “I don’t run away. I like to deal w/ stuff & move on.

“When it’s brought up over & over a person can only take so much & I think it can become boring I work my a** off shooting a few jobs at the same time & taking care of my kids.

“Would not be able to if I did drugs & have never have done them,” she insisted.

Denise then fired back at a fan who demanded she loser her TV job after looking “ugly” at the reunion.

“Oh I’m so sorry you don’t like my ugly smug look. You’re so kind. However I would love to know, why do you follow me? Please don’t,” the cover model quipped.

When one fan said they thought Denise was “allergic to the bulls**t” from her cast mates, the TV personality agreed and said it was “maybe that too.”

The mom-of-two had to also standup for herself on the episode which aired last night – as she was caught in a heated feud with Lisa Rinna.

The rivals had an emotional night of yelling at one another on Wednesday’s episode, Lisa, 57, screamed that Denise “cannot keep lying” in a promo for next week.

“You can’t keep playing this card either and playing this game,” the actress clapped back.

Andy then chimed in: “Now you’re saying she’s not a friend and she’s just an acquaintance.”

Denise – who has had behind-the-scene drama with Bravo in the past – slammed the host for his role in the feud.
