Charlie Sheen
Charlie Sheen – Embattled sitcom star Charlie Sheen checked into rehab Tuesday in what a close friend insisted was a precaution against a possible relapse.
The move – which led to a temporary suspension of his hit CBS show “Two and a Half Men” – came after a tough couple of months for Sheen, 44, since his Christmas Day arrest on charges of threatening his wife, Brooke Mueller, with a knife.
“Charlie is just tired and worried about his wife, his court case and his kids,” the friend, who’s connected to Sheen’s show, told the Daily News. “This is a pro-active measure because he knows himself.”
Warner Brothers, which produces Sheen’s hugely popular show, “has been very understanding,” the friend said. “We’ll still finish. We’ll change the season around a little bit.”
CBS, Warner Brothers and show creator Chuck Lorre released a joint statement supporting Sheen’s decision to begin “voluntary in-patient care at a treatment center.”
“We wish him nothing but the best as he deals with this personal matter,” the statement read.
