Actor Charlie Sheen will no longer pay child support to ex-wife Denise Richards since their daughter Sami is now living with Sheen. Sheen confirmed the news in an interview with Us Weekly while leaving the courthouse.

The Rookie actor filed a request for change in the child support arrangement with Richards in 2019. The latter did not file any opposition paperwork. Sheen was available for the hearing along with attorney Gregory Pedrick, with the exception of Richards, who was out of state.

Pedrick pleaded the judge to order zero child support for Richards since Sheen had full custody of the children since April 2021.


The court date was reportedly not mentioned to Denise, leaving her blindsided and unaware. Sources say this was done intentionally. An insider mentioned that Sheen continued to postpone the court date and ignored Richards when she asked about it.

Gregory said that Charlie Sheen has overpaid for child support in the last few years and planned to put a trust fund worth $1.2 million for his daughters after filing the first petition.
