“(Mr. Sheen asks that his privacy be respected at this time and that no additional informational will be provided).”
RadarOnline.com reported exclusively early Friday that Charlie’s father Martin wanted the star in rehab and had been pressuring him.
“Charlie has been smoking and snorting coke for a long, long time,” a source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com. “He preferred smoking it because he’s had problems with his nose from snorting so much coke in the past.
“The party hasn’t stopped in months."
The 45-year-old actor had barely slept since Monday and was smoking and snorting cocaine before being rushed to by ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Sheen was released from the hospital on Thursday night after being treated for what doctors suspect was an ulceration.
As RadarOnline.com reported exclusively he was anemic with an elevated white blood cell count and dehydrated when taken to the hospital.
