Sami Sheen shared her candid reaction to finding out that her dad, Charlie Sheen, spoke about her in his Netflix documentary, “aka Charlie Sheen.”
The social media influencer, 21, posted a TikTok on Thursday, of herself staring into the camera with a solemn look on her face as somber music played.
“I didn’t know I was the reason he got sober,” she wrote. “Honestly a 10/10 documentary.”
Sheen, 60, revealed in his documentary and his new memoir, “The Book of Sheen: A Memoir,” that his eldest daughter contributed to him cutting out drugs and alcohol.
“It was December 10, 2017, and by 9 a.m. I was on my third Macallan-spiked coffee,” the actor penned in his book that was published on Tuesday. “My phone rang and when I picked up, it was my daughter Sam asking what time we were leaving. S***; her appointment that day had slipped my mind. I’ve never mixed the cups with the wheel, so I called Tony T. to come bail me out of a situation he was all too familiar with. There’s reliable and then there’s that dood.”
Sheen, who shares daughters Sami and Lola, 20, with ex-wife Denise Richards, then explained how the car ride panned out.
“My man was there in twenty-two minutes,” he wrote, “and in very short order we were on the road with 13-year-old Sam in the back seat and the two adults up front. (Well, one adult for sure). Thanks to T, the trip was handled with a combination of precision and grace.”
The “Two and a Half Men” alum recalled Sami being “very quiet” while they drove back home.
“I didn’t need to be clairvoyant to know exactly what she was thinking,” Sheen continued. “Why is Dad not driving-again? Why isn’t it just the two of us in the car like it used to be? When will that moment ever return? When will Dad ever return? I miss him. I missed him too. There was only one thing that felt worse than betraying myself, and that was failing my children.”
The author explained he chose to get sober so he could be more present for Sami and Lola.
“In that car, on that day, with my best friend and a child I adore, I joined Sam in those mirrors and saw a guy who was desperate to finally come home for real,” Sheen shared. “The details of that home were no longer scattered, and at long last I did have all the puzzle pieces to define it.”
Elsewhere in his memoir, the star recounted the moment he began to get clean.
“I knew exactly what had to be done,” Sheen explained. “Like I’ve always said, life comes down to doers and talkers, and there was really nothing left for me to say — it was time to shut the f*** up and get busy doing. Sam wasn’t my final straw; she was my first harvest. On December 11, I took two Valium and drank three beers. On December 12, I quit drinking for good.”
Earlier this year, Richards’ half-hour reality series, “Denise Richards & Her Wild Things,” debuted on Bravo.
The show gave an inside look into their family dynamic, including Sheen’s ex-wife Brooke Mueller and their 16-year-old twins Bob and Max.
During an April episode, Sami got candid on where she stood with Charlie.
“I would rather do literally anything else than go to lunch with my father,” the 21-year-old said after declining a lunch meet-up with her parents and Lola.
Speaking in her confessional, Sami explained that she and Charlie “haven’t really spoken much in the past five months.”
“It goes in very big chunks with him. I think for the first 13 years of my life, it was pretty bad, and then we were okay for a couple years, and now it’s just like, okay,” she added.
Later, Richards, 54, said she understands “why Sami feels the way she does.”
“It hasn’t always been perfect with he and Lola, either — with any of his kids. So I hope that he does recognize that because he’s missing out,” the actress confessed.
“He really is missing out,” Sami added.
While on Gia Giudice’s “Casual Chaos” podcast that same month, the OnlyFans model elaborated: “My whole childhood, I want to say like the first 13 years, my dad was very in and out of my life. It was the worst if we had an event and he said he was going to show up and then we wouldn’t hear from him or he would show up, like, 10 hours late. So we kind of just stopped asking him to come to stuff.”
Last week, Sheen touched on his current dynamic with Sami while talking to People.
“There’s some stuff going on with Sami, but we’ll fix it,” he said. “I’ve got more days behind me than in front of me and that’s fine.”
“That’s the deal we get when we show up [on Earth],” Sheen went on. “But what I try to tell my kids is, ‘Dude, you’re going to be here so long after I’m not. So try to hang on to at least 10% of what I’m saying. I guarantee it will come in handy somewhere, I promise it.’”
