The split comes less than a week after the Two and a Half Men actor was hospitalized in New York. His rep told TVGuide.com that Sheen suffered an "adverse allergic reaction" to medication, though a law enforcement official told the AP that Sheen checked himself into a hospital for a psychiatric evaluation after a woman told police he threw furniture in his hotel room.
