Charlie Sheen is said to be so furious with ex-wife Brooke Mueller for skipping rehab treatment that he has cut down the child support money.

Mueller has temporarily lost the custody of her twin sons while trying to get sober. Sheen's another ex-wife, Denise Richards, has been taking care of Bob and Max.

"This is extremely distressing because Brooke's actions show she just isn't taking rehab seriously. Her approach to treatment is very unorthodox to say the least. What is very bothersome is that the facility is allowing Brooke to do this," radaronline.com quoted a source as saying.

"There is no indication that Brooke is being drug tested as required when living in the sober living facility. Brooke knows that custody of her boys is on the line, yet she moved out of the sober living house so that her boyfriend could visit... Brooke said she was a celebrity and couldn't have any privacy at the sober living facility," the source added.

 

Sheen has asked a judge in the family law court to reduce the monthly child support payment of $55,000 that Mueller gets from him.

A source said: "He didn't want to do this but Charlie didn't want to be contributing to her drug habit because the child support is Brooke's only source of income."
