Los Angeles Oct 4 (IANS) Actor Charlie Sheen says his former wife Denise Richards has definitely grounded him more.
"She s definitely grounded me more although when I met her I was pretty straight and pretty narrow. But it... she certainly helps solidify a much greater desire for responsibility and for you know giving that part of me " Sheen said in a statement to IANS.
Asked if it is nice to read articles that aren t about the bad boy Charlie Sheen he said: "Yeah. I just saw a mention of that last night. My wife did the cover of one of these fitness magazines you know and it says something -- something Denise Richards settled down with reformed bad boy Charlie Sheen and I just thought When can I just be Charlie Sheen again? "
"It just seems like there s a lot of guys out there carrying the torch right now that are doing a pretty good job " said the "Two and a Half Men" star.
Who s filling in his shoes best now?
"Colin Farrell. He s doing a great job. I tip my hat to him because it s a tough one. It s a full-time job when there s no benefit. But there s really no controversy or there s nothing as print-worthy... in the way my life is today with you know -- through that filter with that perception so I can t get too upset about things I have no control over.
"All I can do is just move forward and then hope eventually enough time goes by and enough example is set that it sort of undoes itself."
"Two and a Half Men" will air on Comedy Central in India starting from October 28.
