Bad news for Two and a Half Men fans: you have bad taste in television. Just kidding. The bad news is that Charlie Sheen has entered a rehab program. According to E News, just two weeks after wife Brooke Mueller began in-patient treatment—and two days after child services made a “routine” visit to their house – Charlie Sheen has also checked into rehab. Again.
Details are sketchy about what exactly Charlie is seeking help with, but with his family issues and mysterious car theft, he’s been having a rough couple of months.. “As a preventative measure, Charlie Sheen has entered a rehabilitation facility,” says publicist Stan Rosenfield. “He will take some time off his series Two and a Half Men. He has asked that his privacy be honored.”
In a separate statement, CBS said the network and show producers “support Charlie Sheen in his decision today to begin voluntary in-patient care at a treatment center. We wish him nothing but the best as he deals with this personal matter.”
It’s unclear where Charlie is staying or how long he’ll be undergoing treatment – and it’ll most likely stay that way. Yesterday, Brooke’s attorney lashed out at both the media and officials at her previous rehab center for revealing the location of her treatment.
So what about Charlie’s hit show? According to Deadline Hollywood, “production on Two and a Half Men will be temporarily suspended.”
