Charlie Sheen settles lawsuit with ex who claimed he exposed her to HIV and agrees to pay her $120k
Charlie Sheen has settled a 2017 lawsuit with his ex-girlfriend who claimed he exposed her to HIV.
The actor, 56, has agreed to pay the unnamed woman $120,000 in monthly installments over the course of a year, according to the stipulation filed to LA County Superior Court.
Charlie publicly announced that he was HIV positive back in November 2015.
The anonymous woman who filed the suit, also referred to as Jane Doe, previously informed court that, upon meeting Charlie, she signed an NDA out of fear.
The lawsuit filed five years ago said the woman claimed that Sheen had unprotected sex with her before revealing that he was HIV positive.
Charlie Sheen has settled a lawsuit with his ex-girlfriend who claimed he exposed her to HIV.
Back in 2016, authorities considered launching an investigation against Sheen amidst claims that he had exposed several other women to the sexually transmitted disease without warning them.
The actor had revealed on the Today show that he had hidden the diagnosis from at least two sexual partners, but said he used protection both times.
California law prevents people with a communicable disease from willfully exposing themselves to someone else.
Sheen was diagnosed as HIV positive around 2011, but did not reveal that information publicly until November 2015.
In 2015 Sheen’s ex-fiancee, Brett Rossi, filed a lawsuit saying they had had sex five times before she found out he was HIV-positive.
The same year another of Sheen’s exes, Bree Olson, said he had never disclosed his status to her.
