Soleil Moon Frye has revealed that her first consensual sexual partner was Charlie Sheen.
The Punky Brewster star reveals the secret affair in her just-released documentary, Kid 90, currently playing on Hulu.
“It’s been the most strange and incredible day ever,” Frye recalled as she read a diary entry dated Dec. 18, 1994, which she spent with Sheen. “He’s somebody I’ve had a crush on for years. He’s a person that intrigues me and excites me.”
Frye was 18 years old when she romantically linked up with the then 27-year-old Sheen, whom she likens to Mr. Big from Sex and the City. In an interview with USA Today, the actress recalled their relationship with fond memories.
“He was really kind to me, and I can only speak to my experience and my story with him,” she told the outlet. “In opening the diaries and reading back the diary entries, it was very sweet and he had been really kind to me and treated me really beautifully. And for all these years afterwards, in some of the most pivotal moments in my life, has checked in and (lent) his support.”
In the doc, Frye also opens up about a nonconsensual sexual encounter when she was 17-years-old and a man forced himself on her.
“He asked if I would say he raped me, but I wouldn’t. I was also to blame for my forwardness,” a teary Frye says as she reads from a diary, according to the outlet.
Charlie Sheen has nothing but positive things to say about Soleil Moon Frye after she detailed their past sexual relationship in her Hulu documentary.
“She’s a good egg,” Sheen, 55, told Us Weekly on Mar. 15, 2021, via his longtime publicist, Jeff Ballard, who also previously represented Frye. “I wish Soleil well in this resurgence of hers.”
Sheen told Us that he has yet to watch her documentary, Kid 90. “It’s on my list to watch and very near the top,” he said.
