Two and a Half Men cad Charlie Sheen is taking time off from his CBS comedy to enter a rehabilitation facility, according to his publicist. No details have been given regarding the length of his break or how it would affect the show’s production schedule. The brief statement from publicist Stan Rosenfield only offered that rehab is a “preventative measure,” and that the actor has “asked that his privacy be honored,” and that “no further statements are planned.” Sheen is following in the footsteps of his wife Brooke Mueller, who also went to rehab after an alleged Christmas incident of domestic violence. All this comes on the same day that TMZ reported that Child Protective Services visited the Sheen residence. Mueller is reportedly suing the rehab center she went to for a lack of discretion and invasion of privacy after a staffer allegedly leaked the news of her admittance into The Canyon, a Malibu treatment center that offers numerous detox programs.
