Hollywood bad boy Charlie Sheen has been released from hospital where he had been treated for severe abdominal pains after a reported 36 hours of hard partying, dpa reported.
"Charlie Sheen left the hospital last night and is at home," his representative told People.com Friday morning. "He will be on the set of Two and a Half Men on Tuesday."
There was still no official word on what prompted the 45-year-old sitcom star's emergency evacuation to hospital Thursday morning. Celebrity website TMZ.com maintained that cocaine played a part in the incident, after a dealer reportedly delivered a designer briefcase to his house filled with bricks of cocaine.
However Extra TV quoted a friend of Sheen's as denying that drugs were involved and explaining that the comedy star suffered a hernia when he laughed too hard at a TV show. A spokesman for Sheen also denied the latest report on the star's cocaine use.
Sheen was in the headlines earlier this month for allegedly consorting with porn stars and prostitutes in Las Vegas. He was hospitalized last month following an alleged cocaine-fuelled rager with another porn star, during which he trashed his hotel room, and prompted his guest to lock herself in the bathroom.
