Charlie Sheen’s child support battle ENDS with Two and a Half Men star on hook for stunning amount of back pay

Charlie Sheen has been ordered to pay $500,000 to his third ex-wife Brooke Mueller as their legal battle finally draws to an end.

Mueller sued Sheen for over $15 million this past December, insisting he owed her back child support with interest for their 17-year-old twins Bob and Max.

In her initial complaint, Mueller argued that Sheen had been ordered to furnish her with a monthly $55,000 from April 2010 onwards, but alleged that in July 2011 he began making either partial or no payments.

Sheen’s representative argued that Mueller was ‘not entitled to any child support’ because he had cared for the children while she battled addiction.

Now, in court documents obtained by the Daily Mail, the pair have arrived at an arrangement in which he will pay her far less than the amount she first demanded.

Under the terms of their agreement, Sheen owes Mueller a total of $500,000, half of which is due by July 10, with the remainder to be paid by September 1.

The Daily Mail has contacted Sheen and Mueller’s representatives for comment.

Mueller and Sheen exchanged vows in 2008, commencing a turbulent marriage buffeted by their respective substance abuse struggles until they divorced in 2011.

In 2013, Sheen’s second ex-wife Denise Richards stepped in and temporarily cared for the twins after the government took them from Mueller because of her drug use.

Sheen has retained his sobriety since 2018, while Mueller relapsed in 2023 and has confessed to another ‘slip’ since but remains committed to staying on the wagon.

The agreement they have just struck over child support covers the period from March 1, 2011 to July 1, 2026, after which any financial responsibility for Bob and Max rests with whichever parent has ‘physical custody’ at the time, per court documents.

Although Mueller and Sheen technically have joint custody, the exact terms are contingent on Mueller’s ability to remain sober.

When Mueller first sued Sheen this past December, she demanded an eyewatering sum of $15,386,243, comprised of $8.9 million in back child support from March 2011 to December 2025 and a further $6.4 million in interest.

Mueller insisted that her ex-husband provide her with the sum stipulated – plus $25,000 in attorney’s fees – within 30 days.

Sheen’s representative retorted: ‘Brooke has been in and out of rehab for the past 15 years, while Charlie has had 100% custody of the kids, which is why she is not entitled to any child support,’ according to TMZ.

Earlier last year, Mueller remarked that Sheen remained ‘my first call for help,’ saying: ‘He gets it. He’s always there to help me and pick up the pieces.’

Nevertheless she explained that they held dramatically different views of sobriety, which he appeared to attribute more to willpower than she did, via People.

‘He knows his whole addiction history, and [thinks]: “If I can just stop without one AA meeting or without needing any whatever, then why can’t you?”‘ she said.

‘I think he thinks it’s more about just making a choice, and then with the addiction [mindset], sometimes we don’t have a choice,’ Mueller added.

‘But if I look back at our marriage, he was always one that could shut it off and turn it off and go to sleep, and I would be taking the car sneaking out to Skid Row.’

She allowed that the circumstances were ‘unfair’ to her sons, whom she said had gotten ‘used to’ the ‘sad reality’ that ‘Mommy is going to relapse again one day.’

Along with the twins he had by Mueller, Sheen shares two daughters with Richards – Sami, 22, an OnlyFans model, and Lola, 21, a born-again Christian.
