Sheen, Mueller Seek Private Deal on Child Support Debt
3 Feb
Summary
- Brooke Mueller accused Charlie Sheen of owing $15 million in back child support.
- The ex-couple agreed to postpone a court hearing to resolve the issue privately.
- Sheen must provide accounting details to Mueller by January 30, 2026.
Charlie Sheen and his ex-wife Brooke Mueller are attempting to reach a private agreement regarding $15 million in alleged back child support and interest. Mueller initially filed court documents on January 29, 2026, claiming Sheen owed her this substantial sum, stemming from their 2008-2011 marriage and the subsequent support of their twin sons, Bob and Max.
As a result of their planned private negotiations, Mueller requested that the scheduled February 2, 2026, court hearing be postponed to after April 3, 2026. Sheen has consented to this delay and agreed to provide Mueller with detailed accounting records by January 30, 2026. This move indicates a commitment from both parties to resolve the financial dispute outside of the courtroom.
Mueller's filing detailed Sheen's alleged child support payments from 2011 to 2025, stating he was supposed to pay $660,000 annually but often made partial payments or none at all. She also claimed significant interest accrued on the unpaid amounts, bringing the total to $15,386,000. The filing also noted a prior 2024 agreement regarding custody of their twins, which stipulated Sheen would gain full custody if Mueller relapsed, given her history with addiction.
