Brooke Mueller has reportedly
checked out of the Betty Ford rehabilitation centre.
The actress left the facility
where she was being treated for drug addictions in order to seek help elsewhere.
The star has gone on to
another establishment in Orange County, California which she is hoping will
provide a different experience.
According to TMZ, Charlie
Sheen’s ex-wife felt the place was good for "detoxing" for 30 days.
However she desired a
contrasting accommodation to help her prepare for life back at home.
Brooke isn’t the only
celebrity to have ditched the upscale Betty Ford building recently.
Lindsay Lohan also exited this
week because her judge and prosecutor felt the programme had value for 30 days,
but not the full 90.
The actress apparently agreed
with the sentiments.
Brooke, 42, is currently
embroiled in a custody battle with actor Charlie over their four-year-old twin
sons Bob and Max.
Charlie’s former spouse Denise
Richards is temporarily taking care of them while she sobers up.
Her rehab stint is said to be
the 20th she has entered treatment for substance abuse.
Denise thinks Brooke’s breakdown
has actually improved her relationship with the father of her two daughters Sam
and Lola.
“This is awful to say, but
it's true. When his third marriage started to fall apart, he and I started to
become friendly,” she told HuffPost Live. “In the last few years, things have
gotten really great with us. We're very close and we're good friends, which is
great because it's great for our kids.” (Source)
