Charlie Sheen says Denise Richards should 'complain to the judge’ over child support ruling
The two share two daughters: Sami, 17, and Lola Rose, 16
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Charlie Sheen has a suggestion for Denise Richards after a judge ruled he'd no longer pay her child support.
The two actors were married from 2002-2006 and share two children: Sami, 17, and Lola Rose, 16.
On Tuesday, a judge ruled that after one of their daughters moved in with the "Two and a Half Men" alum, 56, he would no longer be required to pay child support to Richards, 50.

When approached by paparazzi during a visit to Whole Foods in Malibu, Calif., Sheen said that if Richards has a problem with the ruling, she "should go down to the courthouse and complain to the judge," per Page Six.

After the ruling, Sheen told Us Weekly that he believed it to be "extremely fair."
"It speaks to not just today, but it speaks historically to that same fairness," he added at the time.

"Sometime in spring, in early April, Ms. Richards had a falling out with her daughters and asked Mr. Sheen to take custody," Sheen’s attorney, Gregory Pedrick reportedly told the judge in court. "That has been the reality since April of this year."
