The possibly estranged wife of Charlie Sheen, Brooke Mueller, has been discharged from an L.A. hospital after being treated for pneumonia brought on by an oral infection. Mueller’s mom told E! News that she is hoping to take Brooke to a spa where she can recuperate in privacy and rebuild her immune system. Hopefully there is a spa somewhere that can build up Mueller’s immunity to her scary husband.
Brooke Mueller is one step closer to reunion and reconciliation.
E! News confirms that Charlie Sheen’s 32-year-old wife was released from the Los Angeles hospital where she spent most of last week in ICU for pneumonia in both of her lungs.
The embattled couple will return to an Aspen courtroom on Feb. 8 to try to have the state-mandated order of protection stemming from their Christmas Day debacle lifted.
In the meantime, Brooke is jetting off to an undisclosed spa for a little time off, her mother, Moira Fiore, tells E! News.
“Brooke is going to get some rest and relaxation,” she says. “We’re hoping to go to a spa, if she doesn’t get scared off.”
Fiore kept a tight lip about their actual destination, though.
“We’re going somewhere; I don’t want to say where right now. I don’t want a lot of people there,” she says.
Mueller contracted pneumonia due to an oral infection from having a wisdom tooth extracted.
While she continues the recuperation process, the couple’s twin boys are staying with their famous father.
In the meantime, Charlie’s ex-wife Denise Richards is on Oprah today talking about her relationship with the actor and father of her two daughters.
Here’s a question – why is Brooke’s mother talking to the press at all? It’s not going to be tough for tabloid reporters to track her movements now – sure, there are a lot of spas in the world but there are only a few really high-end ones that cater to celebrities. It’s fine that Brooke is focused on getting better and getting some rest, but I don’t think a massage and a pedicure are going to help solve her dilemma. Instead, perhaps her mom should be getting her some counseling and into a support system for women in abusive relationships. It still makes me ill to think that Charlie Sheen will probably walk out of this whole situation smelling like a rose, free to be a big bully once again, while Brooke is trying to repair her reputation and regain her health. It doesn’t seem very fair.
UPDATE (by Kaiser): Entertainment Tonight is now reporting that Brooke is in rehab, not a “spa”. Good for her. Maybe the third, fourth or fifth time will be the charm.
UPDATE #2: Or not. TMZ says she’s not in rehab. Whatever. At this point, I don’t even care.
No Brooke, a mani-pedi will not make it all go away.
These two jackasses.
A “spa” can mean a LOT of things! When I had some major personal problems a while back, I desperately needed to go away somewhere for a few weeks to get my HEALTH in order. I didn’t have the focus or discipline to make the healthy changes I needed on my own. However – as a single mother with sole custody of my 2 kids, there was no way I could leave my children and do that. Sometimes – things get so bad that leaving your responsibilities for a few weeks while you are immersed in a whole new way of living (a healthy way) without any outside distractions or temptations is necessary. If you’ve never been in that situation, please don’t judge!
He needs proper deliverance.
And soon Charlie’s team will say that spa is spelled r.e.h.a.b.
I know someone who did the same thing, Alexa, and it helped her a great deal. If Brooke were not a parent, I would say this would probably be good for her, to re-evaluate her situation. But who is going to be watching her babies while she’s gone? I wouldn’t trust Charlie for one second. Hopefully there’s a good nanny involved, or someone!
REHAB IS WHAT SHE NEEDS
Yup, didn’t take long for the rehab story to circulate. If she does need it, by all means go and get healthy. If it’s just rumors spread by Charlie’s team or someone else, gross.
