Troubled star Charlie Sheen's ex-wives have accepted his plea to reduce their monthly child support payments.
Actress Denise Richards, mother to his daughters Sam and Lola, and Brooke Mueller, who shares twins Bob and Max with the actor, have agreed to have their payments halved after Sheen claimed he could no longer afford to keep up with the financial obligations due to a significant change in earnings, TMZ reported.
Both Brooke and Denise were receiving USD 55,000 a month from Sheen, but he filed papers seeking to reduce their child support payments in March, and they have now agreed to the reduced amount of USD 25,000 a month.
Sources said both women fear if the case goes to court, the sum would likely have been reduced to next to nothing, with reports suggesting it could have been slashed to around USD 10,000 a month, or lower.
Sheen is also said to have included property in the child support deal, while he reportedly agreed to appear in a new show with Denise, although the details of which have yet to be revealed.
