Brooke Mueller doing "very well" in rehab

Highlights

  • The real estate investor - who has two-year-old twin sons Bob and Max with ex-husband Charlie Sheen - checked into a long-term, in-patient centre in December following her arrest for assault and cocaine possession and is said to be responding "positively" for treatment for drug and alcohol addiction.
  • An insider said: "Brooke is doing very well in rehab, this is the first time she has been in a residential treatment programme, and it's been a very positive experience for her so far.
  • "Brooke will be at the facility for approximately 35-45 days in total."
  • The 34-year-old beauty's lawyers are now hoping to postpone her upcoming court date later this month - which relates to the cocaine and assault charges - until she has completed her stint in rebab.
  • The source told RadarOnline.com: "Brooke's lawyer will likely ask for the arraignment to be taken off calendar because she is still in rehab.
  • "Her lawyer would like for Brooke to be out of rehab when she next has to appear on court, so the District Attorney and the judge has a full report on her recovery.
  • "The fact that Brooke went to rehab on her own, and took responsibility for her actions will show the court that she is taking this very seriously, and she is hopeful that a plea bargain will be made."
  • During her time in the facility, Brooke has requested to be "tested on a daily basis for cocaine and other illegal substances" and she is allowed home under supervision in the evenings so she can be with her children.
