Actor's newborn isn't home yet
Friday, 3 April 2009
At just over 2 weeks old, Max Sheen is already in the spotlight as questions swirl about why he has yet to leave the L.A. hospital where he was born – along with his brother Bob – on March 14.
'Charlie and Brooke's infant son Max remains in the hospital, not because of a heart condition as reported, but because he has not gained the weight necessary to leave the hospital,' Sheen's publicist, Stan Rosenfield, says in a statement. 'Max is expected to reach the weight requirement shortly and will join his brother at home.'
Proud papa Sheen jokes that his son is suffering from a common affliction: aversion to hospital food.
'The weight issue is very common among infants who were born before reaching full term,' Sheen says. 'I know a lot of people are not fond of hospital food; I just didn't realize that they started so young.'
Max and Bob were the first for Sheen, 43, and wife Brooke Mueller Sheen, 31. The Two and a Half Men actor has daughters, Sam, 4, and Lola, 3, with ex-wife Denise Richards, and another, 24-year-old Cassandra, from a previous marriage.
'The Sheens appreciate the outpouring of concern,' his rep says, 'but have assured everyone that both Bob and Max are fine.'
