Though Sheen privately issued a strenuous denial when confronted by The ENQUIRER in November 2014 about his double life, his HIV status is an “open secret” in Hollywood.

TMZ reported that the incident began when Sheen took exception to someone filming him on their cellphone and angrily slapped the device out of their hand, damaging it as it hit the ground.
The Today show touted the forthcoming Sheen Q&A on Twitter, teasing that the actor would give a “revealing interview” to co-host Matt Lauer.
Sources told TMZ that the announcement will confirm he has HIV.
Last week, a “Hollywood superstar” with a string of famous former girlfriends was reportedly outing as having HIV by the Telegraph, who reported the actor was unwilling to admit the diagnosis publicly for fear of law suits from the women.
RadarOnline.com and The National Enquirer were the first outlets to report this shocking news but it has yet to be confirmed.
“His lawyers are bracing for the threat of potential action”.
Sheen has been married three times and has five children – a daughter Cassandra, 21, with high school sweetheart Paula Profit; Daughters Sam, 11, and Lola, 10, with second wife Denise Richards; and twin boys Bob and Max, 6, with third wife Brooke Mueller.
