Charlie Sheen admits in his upcoming book, “The Book of Sheen,” that he struggled with sex addiction and was extorted by partners during the height of his drug abuse. In an interview with Michael Strahan on “Good Morning America,” Sheen revealed he kept parts of his life hidden out of fear.

A Life of Secrets and Extortion

Sheen said he engaged in relationships with men but stayed silent because of blackmail.

“I was just like, ‘Alright, let’s just pay to keep it quiet,'” he told Strahan. Over time, he felt “held hostage” until he decided to speak openly in his memoir.

Sobriety and Health

Sheen, now 60, shared that he quit drugs in 2015 after announcing his HIV diagnosis and later gave up alcohol in 2017. “My body was starting to reject it,” he explained, saying he has remained sober since. Today, he says he feels “pretty good.”

Looking Back at ‘Tiger Blood’ Era

The star of “Platoon” and “Two and a Half Men” reflected on his notorious 2011 public meltdown, when phrases like “tiger blood” and “winning” made headlines. Sheen admitted he no longer recognizes the person he was then. “It’s weird. It’s like there’s a possession going on,” he said.

Family and Second Chances

A father of five and grandfather, Sheen said sobriety has improved his relationships with his children. While his bond with his daughter Sami remains strained, he hopes for reconciliation. “I have absolute faith that it’s not a forever thing,” he said.

‘The Book of Sheen’

In addition to personal struggles, Sheen’s memoir covers his career highs and lows, from his Golden Globe-winning roles to his HIV battle. The book will be released on Sept. 9.
