“Exclusive”: Charlie Sheen Shares Insights on Single Fatherhood with Teenage Twin Boys

Charlie Sheen’s life is very different now compared to 2013. Back then, he and his ex-wife Brooke Mueller couldn’t take care of their 4-year-old twin boys, Max and Bob. So, they stayed with Charlie’s ex-wife Denise Richards temporarily.


But things have changed. Charlie, who is now 58 and has been sober for six years, has full-time custody of the boys. He spends most of his days taking care of them.

“I’ve mostly been raising my 14-year-old boys,” he says. “Their mom has some things to figure out, so she’s not around much right now.”

The boys are doing well. “They’re cool, smart, and funny,” Charlie adds.

However, like many parents, he faces a common problem: his teens being addicted to screens.

“You know, the time they spend on their devices…” he says, chuckling. “But on the flip side, it gives me a little break from dragging them all over the city. Still, screens take away other opportunities for them to learn and explore.”

Despite the screen time, Charlie is proud of his kids. Bob won a horror movie competition at 8, and Max plays the guitar. “They’re into cool stuff, not just Fortnite.”

Charlie mentions that being a famous actor doesn’t impress his kids. “It doesn’t matter what important job or responsibility I have; the kids don’t care,” he says. “The other day, I was at the dentist, and Max asked me for a gift card for a game. It’s like, when have I ever had a gift card? I’m not into gaming at all; I’m just trying to supervise their screen time.”

Charlie is proud of all his kids, including daughters Sami and Lola and Cassandra Jade Estevez, who’s 38. He’s grateful that his family, including dad Martin Sheen and brother Emilio Estevez, never abandoned him during his worst times with addiction.

“The only times we were ever distant were because of me,” he says. “Sometimes, shame keeps you away from those who care about you the most. But they never shut the door on me. It was always, ‘We’re here when you need us.’”
