Charlie Sheen And New Wife Expecting A New Little Dependent

That sound you just heard was Denise Richards' head exploding.  Twice.

Yep, ol' Charlie is at it again...he and new wife Brooke Mueller, whom he married in May, have announced that they are going to have an addition to their family:

The actor is expecting a child with wife Brooke Mueller, Sheen announced Monday in a statement.

"Brooke and I are thrilled!" the star of the CBS hit "Two and a Half Men" wrote. "She's the best stepmom Sam, Lola and Cassandra could ever hope for. Seeing her love and affection with those three, I know she'll be an amazing mom. Unless I bat 100 percent, perhaps a boy awaits us."


The last statement refers to the fact that he already has three daughters; 25-year-old Jade (from a relationship with Paula Profit), 3-year-old Sam, and 2-year-old Lola.

Okay.  Let's stop and think about this for a second.  He has managed to clean up his sex/drugs/rock-n-roll lifestyle, and that is to be commended (in 1995, he revealed that he had spent $50,000 on prostitutes in four months; he's allegedly slept with 5000 women [hmm...methinks the number is somewhat exaggerated]; he's been in rehab at least six times, one of which was the result of his own father calling the police on him) but he already has three children, two of which are being raised by a woman of questionable mental stability and who are in the middle of a rather contentious custody dispute.  And he can't seem to shake controversy...allegations against Sheen have continued, mostly from his ex-wife Denise:

In a searing court attack on Charlie Sheen, actress Denise Richards alleges that her estranged husband is unstable, violent, addicted to gambling and prostitutes, and visits pornographic web sites featuring young men and girls who appear underage. In a remarkable sworn declaration (a copy of which you'll find below) filed today in Los Angeles Superior Court, Richards also charges that Sheen, 40, assaulted her and threatened her life during a December 30 incident at the actress's Los Angeles home. Richards claims that an enraged Sheen--who was over for a visit with the couple's two children--told her she was "fucking with the wrong guy" and called her a series of vulgar names in front of the children. The actor, Richards said, then shoved her to the ground and screamed, "I hope you f--king die, bitch." As Richards, 35, tells it, Sheen was angry because she had told her divorce attorney about discovering details of Sheen's porn-surfing practices.

I guess my question is this:  If you're already involved in what is turning out to be one of the most nasty custody cases of Hollywood's already nasty history, and if you're already dealing with an ex-wife who is at best a bit loopy and at worst a money-grubbing harpie, why bring more children into this mess?  I can understand Brooke's desire to be a mother, but couldn't they have waited a bit, at least until this current crop of allegations against Charlie have been settled?
