Charlie Sheen And Brooke Mueller have mutually agreed to change custody details of their 14-year-old twin sons.
This is evident from court documents obtained by We weeklySheen, 58, requested joint physical and legal custody with Mueller, 46, on Thursday, January 19. He was granted the emergency request with provisions including that he “immediately” be given “sole legal custody” of sons Bob and Max “in the event that Brooke tests positive” for drugs or alcohol.
The paperwork shows the children live primarily with Sheen, while Mueller was given “reasonable and flexible periods” of custody and visitation. She will be required to undergo drug and alcohol testing as often as required by her probation officer, within 24 hours of a written request from Sheen or his attorney.
Sheen will continue to provide Mueller with additional financial assistance from time to time, but he will not sign a new lease or monthly renewal on any homes, the documents say. He will also continue to pay Mueller's rent in her current home as long as she is clean and sober.
The former couple previously agreed to the terms in formal documents in November 2022 and August 2023. However, Sheen was granted permission to file an ex parte motion, granting the request without a response from Mueller. Sheen did not clarify in Thursday's documents why he chose to request the changes.
The documents specified that Sheen and Mueller signed the child's second child custody modification in August 2023, which came a month after she “relapsed and engaged in abusing alcohol and controlled substances.”
Sheen and Mueller have faced many public ups and downs since their marriage and high-profile breakup. They exchanged vows in 2008 and welcomed their twin sons a year later. After two years of marriage, they called it quits in 2010.
Over the years, Sheen and Mueller have both struggled with addiction issues. Mueller voluntarily entered an East Coast treatment center in August 2019 after multiple drug-related incidents. After her departure from the facility, Sheen and Mueller continued to work on co-parenting their children.
While reflecting on life as a single father, Sheen recently revealed that he has been sober for six years. (Sheen is also father to daughters Sami, 19, and Lola, 18, with Denise Richardsand daughter Cassandra Jade Estevez, 38, met Paula Winst.)
“I mainly raised my 14-year-old boys,” he said People in December 2023. “Their mom has been trying to figure some things out, so she's not in the picture as much right now.”
Sheen joked that his youngest children don't care that he's an actor, adding, “It doesn't matter, whatever we do, it can be important and related to our work, or to a high moment of responsibility , the children don't matter.”
