Watch: Tearful Sami Sheen Reacts to Learning Why Charlie Sheen Got Sober

Sami Sheen takes food very seriously. 

The 21-year-old daughter of Charlie Sheen and his ex Denise Richards revealed the surprising reason she decided to move back into the city of Los Angeles from Calabasas—and it has everything to do with one of her favorite restaurants. 

"I feel like most people move to L.A. so they can pursue their dreams of becoming an actor," Sami shared in an Oct. 6 TikTok video, "but I'm actually moving to L.A. so I can be closer to Din Tai Fung."

And the OnlyFans model insisted that she wasn't just making a joke about the Taiwanese restaurant chain. As she put it, "You might think I'm kidding, I'm actually not."

"I found a house and before I submitted my application or anything, I went to DoorDash and made sure that Din Tai Fung would deliver to that house because I refused to live anywhere again that Din Tai Fung would not deliver to," Sami continued. "So yes, I am moving to L.A. so that I can be closer to my favorite dumpling spot."

She added, "I don't even think that's really that crazy, if I'm being honest."

And her address isn't the only thing that's different in her life as late. Back in August, Sami debuted a new bubblegum pink hair color that she dyed herself.

“Everyone's been telling me that I need to change my hair color,” Sami said in TikTok at the time while still sporting her blonde locks. “I'm finally listening, and I'm going pink. I’m really excited.”

Of course, the DIY process didn't come without a bit of trial and error. In fact, Sami admitted that she was a bit disappointed by the results after her first couple rounds of applying the new hue. 

“My hair looks so bad,” she complained. “I don't understand what happened. It developed really weirdly—the top layer is still kind of blonde, but then under here is really pink. I don't know what happened.”

In the end, however, she wound up being more than satisfied with her new appearance.

“I actually dyed my extensions and I waved it and I did my makeup,” she shared in a separate Aug. 3 TikTok, “and I don't really hate my hair anymore.”

Cassandra Estévez

Charlie welcomed his first child Cassandra with his high school girlfriend Paula Profit in 1984 when he was only 19 years old.

While Cassandra has mostly stayed out of the spotlight, she was escorted down the aisle at her 2010 wedding to Casey Huffman by the Two and a Half Men star.

Charlie and now-ex-wife Denise Richards welcomed their eldest daughter together on March 9, 2004 two years after they wed.

Sami first entertained the limelight when she appeared on Denise's 2008 E! reality series Denise Richards: It's Complicated as a child.

Over a decade later, she made a name for herself in 2022 when she became an OnlyFans model shortly after turning 18. And the young star's career move has proved to be quite lucrative ever since.

“It opened so many doors for me,” Sami told People in February 2025, “and I've met really cool people doing it, and it's been really rewarding being my own boss and making my own hours and being able to do the things I've always wanted to do.”

Lola Sheen

Lola, who was just 3 when It's Complicated premiered, grew up to be very different than her boundary-pushing older sister.

Born June 1, 2005, she is a woman of God and a devout Christian.

“I can't explain it other than it literally was supernatural,” the restaurant hostess told People in an interview published Feb. 2025 after getting baptized in the church. “Jesus rescued me and he completely rewired my mind. He became my Savior, but also my best friend.”

The teen also shared how religion saved her from the darkness of depression.

“I felt so lost and hopeless, and was just doing my best to make it to the next day,” she admitted on Instagram. “He gave me a light, when I couldn’t find my own, and rescued me from the darkness. Jesus saved me from battling severe anxiety, and gave me a peace that makes no sense.”

Eloise Richards

Following her divorce from Charlie, newly-single Denise adopted her youngest daughter Eloise as an infant in 2011. In 2016, she was diagnosed with a deletion in chromosome 8 which caused developmental delays in walking and speech.

"Eloise is a bright light," the proud mom told People in March 2025. "She just loves everything, and she just embraces it and is just so happy. And the older girls see it too. Sometimes if they go at each other, [Eloise will] just be like... And I'm like, 'I know.' And then they laugh, and then they can kind of get past whatever stupid thing they're fighting about."

Bob Sheen & Max Sheen

Charlie and third wife Brooke Mueller welcomed twin boys Bob Sheen and Max Sheen on March 14, 2009. The couple divorced less than two years later, with Bob and Max living with Denise during their parents' contentious split.

In 2023, Charlie got candid about raising his youngest children as a single dad.

"Their mom has been trying to figure some stuff out on her end, so she's not in the picture too much right now," he told People at the time. "They're really cool, really smart, and really funny."

While they mostly stay out of the spotlight, the twins made a rare appearance at their mom's 47th birthday celebration in August 2024.

The Estévezes

Let's not forget that Charlie (real name Carlos Estévez) was born into a famous family. His dad is legendary actor Martin Sheen (born Ramon Estévez), whose Hollywood career spans more than six decades.

Charlie's older brother Emilio Estévez also followed in their father's footsteps having starred in classic films like The Breakfast Club, St. Elmo's Fire, Mission Impossible and The Mighty Ducks

The stars also share brother Ramon Estévez and sister Renée Estévez.
