An insider has told how Denise Richards’ two daughters “are still very much in the dark” about their father Charlie Sheen’s latest run-in with the law.

Last week Sheen was found in the company of an adult film star in a trashed hotel suite, naked and intoxicated.
“Denise knows the girls are going to go through hell when they get old enough to understand all the ugliness,” the unnamed source told Us Weekly, and she has not opened up to the girls about their father’s indiscretions and unlawful incidents.
Richards has also chosen not to tell her daughters about Sheen’s Christmas Day brain explosion where he allegedly threatened estranged wife Brooke Mueller with a knife and told her, “If you ever tell anybody, I’ll kill you.”
Six-year-old Sam and five-year-old Lola are reportedly “a little afraid” of Charlie and stuck close to their mother’s side at a family outing to a performance of Mary Poppins.
The girls followed their mother to the bathroom, the magazine was told.
