Burt Reynolds has declared he’s not at all surprised about Charlie Sheen’s HIV-positive diagnosis and in fact, he thinks it’s what the actor deserves for the fast lifestyle he lives.
Reynolds talked about Sheen during an interview with ITV’s Loose Women, saying he’s actually good friends with Sheen’s father, Martin Sheen, but has no sympathy for the former Two and a Half Men star.
"He's handled it badly, I think," Reynolds said. "His father is a very, very decent man and a dear friend of mine. I feel bad for him but Charlie, I don't feel bad for him. He's getting what he deserves.”
The 79-year-old actor added, “If you're going to misbehave like that, they're going to get you."
Sheen revealed his diagnosis on the Today Show recently during a revealing interview with Matt Lauer. He admitted he’s had the virus for four years now, though it’s virtually undetectable in his system.
“He misbehaved badly,” Reynolds continued. “Very badly. But you know, when you're that age, it's tough. All those things are coming at you and it's difficult.”
His comments are just another slap in the face to Sheen, who’s facing a serious lawsuit from his ex-fiance, Brett Rossi, who claims he forced her to have an abortion among other things.
