""I was like, 'Sh--!' Because I never drank and drove," he said, adding that he asked his best friend Tony to help him get his daughter to the hair salon. "So we got her up there. We were on time and everything was smooth and cool," the actor said. "But it was the drive back, you know? It was the drive back that broke my f------ heart.""
""I knew that she was back there wondering, 'Why isn't this just a me-and-Dad trip?'" he said, adding, "Just the way I felt in that moment, after that moment, thinking back on that moment, it felt like I'd let her down." "I carried that moment forward," he went on. "And I just thought, OK, what can I do? Scheduled or spontaneous, when she or any of my other kids need something - I'm the guy. I'm the go-to.""
Charlie Sheen, 60, has been sober for seven years and attributes his sobriety to a pivotal father-daughter moment with his daughter Sami. When Sami was about 12 or 13, a planned hair appointment was attended, but the return drive was handled by a friend after Sheen had been drinking earlier that morning. Seeing his daughter in the side-view mirror made him feel he had let her down and motivated him to commit to being the dependable parent his children could count on. Sami, 21, posted a tearful TikTok expressing surprise that she inspired his sobriety and reacted emotionally to the film.
