I really do NOT want Richard to be Audrey's son. One thought I had about this is that in episode 5, Jerry Horne appears very briefly smoking a joint and watching porn on an iPad. I wonder if Lynch through that scene in there as a hint that Jerry is Richard's father.
Jerry was watching Jacoby's "show", like Nadine, wasn't he?
Richard could still be his son (or even grandson, who knows?), but I don't see any hint other than the last name and ages. Or Ben's or someone's we never saw. If he's Audrey's, he'd hardly be called a Horne.
Could be nothing, but I noticed the time when Dougie left the office was 4:30, possibly a reference to the Giant saying "430".

Unless Audrey never married and the father of the child left her for some reason. That boy would've been spoiled rotten by grandpa Ben and would definitely be a dick who goes around thinking he owns everything and everyone.
Richard reminds me of Jerry. One thing for sure is he is a douche bag. I would think that Audrey's son would have dark hair.
Son of Audrey and John Justice Wheeler.
Some people are latching onto Audrey having sex with John Wheeler ( a character that S. Fenn did not like, BTW ) in original TP. It could have been protected sex ( pregnancy is not statistically impossible with a condom, of course, but unlikely ).
That's Eamon Farren. Australia's own:
Put glasses on him in that picture, I'd say he looks like a young Jerry Horne.
But he does look more like Audrey 😉
Richard Horne smokes Morley's, like Cigatette Smoking Man from "The X-Files". He reminds me... Christopher Walken.
I think he's son of Audrey and J.J. Wheeler. He gave the deputy a big bribe in cigarette box, so he could be a kid of millionaire, Audrey.
Audrey Horne could be the sponsor of glass box experiment in N.Y. 😉
First of all, I know more than I can chew about miscarriages and abortions, and I also know of Lynch's hatred towards Season 2. I KNOW Richard is not John Justice Wheeler's son.
Second, after making my own assumptions about Richard Horne's heritage, that he's probably Jerry Horne's son (due to his uncanny resemblance to David Patrick Kelly especially in his younger years, The Warriors and such) and falling flat after reading several theories on the issue, I have also come to the conclusion that he is the son of Audrey and Evil Cooper. His behaviour is not that of a misguided, mischievous little brat, he kind of reminds me of BOB. (Or Frank Booth, as many have pointed out, but let's stay in this universe.)
Also, judging by how Ben treated his wife, it's very unlikely he would've seeded another child, and Jerry was always a loser - I can't imagine anyone signing such a warrant with that guy as birthing his child.
@Kuzpo: I genuinely love your last thought - unfortunately, in my experience, the world is full of people willing to have child with the worst a-holes conceivable (and I'm talking about both women and men here), especially if said a-hole is filthy rich. So, as scary as it sounds, I have the utmost certainty that even a psichotic little bastard like Jerry Horne could find a way to spawn.
Going OT a tad, here: do you feel TP and Blue Velvet are set in different 'universes'? I'm curious because, with the exception of The Elephant Man, Dune and The Straight Story (and, maybe, not even those), I always assumed Lynch's other works - TP/FWWM included - to be set in the same narrative universe. Heck, Blue Velvet even has a strong "Fire theme" going on ; -)

The phrase "Fire Walk With Me" goes back to Frank Booth and Blue Velvet. Lynch wrote the phrase on a Post-It note along with a small drawing of a flame while filming Blue Velvet. He later said that if Frank had a tattoo that it would say "Fire Walk With Me".
Here's the drawing:
John Kealy: thanks mate, great tidbit of information : -)
Good points, both of you. @Häxan L. and @John Kealy
I have read the Lynch on Lynch book multiple times, and also/thus considered the possibility that at the very least: Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks, Lost Highway, Mulholland Dr. and Inland Empire, would have taken place in the same universe, although Dave himself never gives a straight answer to that question (IE wasn't even out then, of course).
Could be he's just a simple tribute to Dennis Hopper's magnum opus. I'm not ruling anything out.
