Brooke Mueller Reflects on Addiction Struggles and Co-Parenting with Charlie Sheen

The actress discusses her recent relapse, ongoing recovery, and the supportive role of her ex-husband in raising their twin sons.

Brooke Mueller, 47, candidly shared details about her recent relapse involving ADD medication after a 2023 return to substance use following six years of sobriety.
Mueller now identifies as a 'stage four' addict, describing the persistent cycle of relapse and the mental health challenges tied to addiction.
She credits ex-husband Charlie Sheen for being her first call for help and a consistent source of support, despite their differing views on addiction as a choice versus a compulsion.
The former couple shares custody of their 16-year-old twin sons, Bob and Max, co-parenting amicably without legal involvement, with Sheen living in the same complex as Mueller.
Mueller acknowledges the impact her addiction has had on her sons, calling their exposure to her struggles 'unfair,' while expressing gratitude for their resilience and strong peer influences.
