Dennis Hopper, wife, agree to stay away from each other; Hopper to visit with daughter daily

Dennis Hopper, wife, agree to stay away order

LOS ANGELES — Court records show Dennis Hopper’s wife has agreed to stay 10 feet away from the ailing actor and not contact him directly as they wrangle through their divorce.

Documents filed Thursday in Los Angeles show that Hopper, who is battling prostate cancer, will also have daily visits with the couple’s daughter.

Hopper sought an order Thursday barring his wife, Victoria, from contacting or communicating with the “Easy Rider” star and his adult children.

The actor filed for divorce in January and both sides have cited irreconcilable differences for the breakup. Victoria Hopper claimed in court papers that the actor smoked marijuana around their daughter and his illness had left him unable to make sound decisions.

Hopper denied those claims in court filings Thursday.
