Martin Sheen has reportedly spoken out in support of his son Charlie Sheen‘s reveal that he has HIV.
“He had been leading up to this sort of story for several months, and we kept encouraging him to do it,” the 75-year-old actor said while on stage at the CME Group’s Global Financial Leadership Conference, according to E! News. “He kept backing away and backing away because it was like going to his own execution, I guess. It was the most difficult thing he’d ever done. And he kind of sealed it when he called Matt Lauer last week and asked if he could go on.”
“This morning, as I watched him alone, reveal his deepest, darkest secret, I couldn’t believe the level of courage I was witnessing, and that it was my son. I left him a message, and I said that if I had that much courage, I would change the world,” Martin continued.
