Actor Denise Richards has broken her silence about ex-husband Charlie Sheen’s wild behaviour and says she will not restrict the pair’s two daughters from seeing him.
The 40-year-old, who has two daughters with Sheen, seven-year-old Sam and six-year-old Lola, says her daughters will continue to see their father despite his unstable behaviour, Us magazine reported.
“I’ll never cut off contact with Charlie,” she said.
“He’s my girls’ dad. As they’re older they’ll deal with him how they can.
“A lot of women can’t relate to being married to Charlie Sheen or divorcing Charlie Sheen, but they can relate to feeling sad, angry, scared and upset.”
Richards has spoken for the first time about the night of Sheen’s October 2010 meltdown at a New York hotel where he trashed his hotel room and held a knife to porn star Capri Anderson’s throat.
“Charlie invited me to this dinner with ‘friends,’ and once I realised what these women did for a living, I thought, ‘It’s one meal; you can suck it up and get through it’,” she said.
“It’s not my place to judge how they make a paycheque.”
Richards details the event in her new book, Real Girl Next Door. “After I quieted [our daughters] down, I climbed into bed,” she wrote. “I had to get up early for my press. About an hour later, I was awakened by sounds outside my door, including walkie-talkies, which is never a good sign. A few minutes later, the cops showed up. Several officers went into Charlie’s room, and a sergeant came into mine.”
After being questioned by police and telling them everything she knew, Richards accompanied Sheen to hospital.
“Charlie was put into an ambulance, and I rode with the sergeant to the hospital, though I insisted I had to be back at 4.30am,” she wrote.
“After making sure Charlie was stable and settled, the nice policeman gave me a ride back.”
