Former "Two and a half Men" star Charlie Sheen claims that he pays his ex-wives, Brooke Mueller and Denise Richards, USD 55,000 each per month.

The 50-year-old actor has six-year-old twins Bob and Max with Brooke Mueller and daughters Sam, 11 and Lola, 10 with Denise Richards and revealed he pays both women the astronomical sum, reported Female First.

Speaking on "The Dr Oz Show", Sheen said he paid them "$55,000 each a month, tax free," before quipping to the audience "You could all live on that right?"

It was revealed on the show that Sheen's payments to his exes were part of what he dubbed 'Operation Harmony', a plan to have his children and ex-wives live nearby.

"I bought houses in my neighbourhood for Brooke and the boys, and then for Denise and the girls. I wanted everybody to be in the same neighbourhood. And that all went bad," he said.
