The Execution of Private Slovik. Sheen has been playing the role of Charlie Harper on the sitcom
Two and a Half Men, which debuted in 2003. In the
Empire magazine interview, he stated that he took a bullet for the industry when he was called into court to "name names."
In 1995, Sheen married Donna Peele. The marriage lasted a little more than a year--
September 3,
1995 to
November 19,
1996. In 1996, Sheen announced that he'd become a
born-again Christian.
Although Sheen was involved with a number of Hollywood personalities, his long-term relationship with
Ginger Lynn in the late 1990s garnered the most media attention. He was also involved for a time with former porn star
Heather Hunter. On
June 15,
2002, he married actress
Denise Richards after meeting her while filming
Good Advice in 2001. They have two daughters, Sam J. Sheen (born
March 9,
2004) and Lola Rose Sheen (born
June 1,
2005). On
April 19,
2006,
Denise Richards filed for
divorce from Sheen. Sheen and Richards's divorce was official on
November 30,
2006.
Sheen and Richards are engaged in an acrimonious custody dispute over their two daughters, with Richards requesting a custody evaluation, no overnight visits for Sheen, and authority to make decisions regarding the care of the children. Richards alleges abusive behavior by Sheen toward her and staff, paranoid behavior regarding the care of the children, and that he continues to have gambling and drug addictions. Sheen denies these allegations and further alleges that Richards later requested sperm from him in order to have another child. Richards also cited Sheen's beliefs about 9/11 in the divorce proceedings.
Sheen was the 2004 spokesperson for the
Lee National Denim Day breast cancer fundraiser that raised millions of dollars for research and education regarding the disease. Sheen stated that a friend of his died due to
breast cancer, and he wanted to try to help find a cure for the disease.
As of 2007, Sheen is engaged to Brooke Mueller, a real estate investor.
Jason Itzler, owner of the escort service NY Confidential, claimed in March of 2008 that Sheen paid $20,000 for the services of two prostitutes, one of which was
Ashley Dupre, of
Eliot Spitzer prostitution scandal fame. Sheen denied the allegations.
9/11 Truth Movement involvement
On
March 20,
2006, Sheen revealed during an
Alex Jones interview that he questions the official story concerning the
September 11, 2001 attacks. Sheen stated during the interview, "...it just didn't look like any commercial jetliner I've flown on any time in my life and then when the buildings came down later on that day I said to my brother, 'Call me insane, but did it sorta look like those buildings
came down in a controlled demolition?'" During a
March 22,
2006 appearance on
CNN's
Showbiz Tonight, Sheen stated "...19 amateurs with box cutters taking over four commercial airliners and hitting 75 percent of their targets, that feels like a conspiracy theory". On
October 27 2007, his views on 9/11 were echoed by his father
Martin Sheen.
"Living Legend of Sex"
In a 1997
Empire magazine interview, Sheen was asked what was the largest number of people Sheen had sex with at any one time. He replied: "...five girls at once. It was a pile-up...and it wasn't so much about going
Caligula, it was very organized. Very ordered...all six people in that room came out of it pretty satisfied". Sheen was listed as #2 on
Maxim's "Top 10 Living Legends of Sex", citing an alleged 5,000 women that he's slept with.
