Celebrity Rehab: Family Edition
A couple of weeks ago, Brooke Mueller checked herself into rehab to get the crack devil (that’s the rumor) off her back. Well, E! News says that Charlie Sheen has also shuffled off to rehab AGAIN. And if that isn’t messy enough, TMZ says that Brooke and Charlie’s twin sons are in rehab with their mother! This reminds me of how my friend said his mom would take him to AA meetings when he was a child and tell him to go play with the coffee filters in the corner while the grown-ups cried.
Sources tell TMZ that Brooke changed rehab facilities, because one of the staff members was trying to sell her private information to the media. Brooke is now staying at a house that offers inpatient rehab services. The joint allowed Brooke to bring her kids and their nannies.
As for Charlie, his rep seemed to downplay his rehab stay by calling it a “preventative measure.” Here’s the full statement:
“As a preventative measure, Charlie Sheen has entered a rehabilitation facility. He will take some time off his series Two and a Half Men. He has asked that his privacy be honored.”
I hope Irv Richards is wearing his Blublockers today, because Denise Richards’ halo is probably shining brighter than usual.
