LOS ANGELES (AP) - David Duchovny has entered a rehabilitation facility for sex addiction. In a statement released Thursday by his lawyer, Stanton Stein, the actor said he did so voluntarily, adding: "I ask for respect and privacy for my wife and children as we deal with this situation as a family."

The actor's publicist, Flo Grace, confirmed the rehab report, which first appeared on People.com.

She and Stein both declined to elaborate further.

Duchovny, 48, plays a sex-obsessed character on the Showtime series "Californication," which earned Emmy nominations for casting and cinematography. The show's second season begins Sept. 28. Showtime had no comment Thursday.

[View Full Quote]The actor appeared in the film "The X Files: I Want to Believe" earlier this summer. He has been married to actress Tea Leoni since 1997. They have two children.

The truth--and whores--is out there.

When I read the title I thought it was just a lead up article to the new season of Californication. If you have seen the series you would understand.

We shouldn't pick on the guy, that's a serious and tragic condition...

Or so I've heard...

This can't be a good situation for anyone in that household. Family turmoil and pain isn't much fun.

[Cochese]

This so much like the character he plays on Californication its not even funny.

I wonder if Tea is tired of walking with a limp, or if David loves the role of Hank Moody waaay too much,

Wow... I dont have an addictive personality(well maybe to cowboyszone)lol

But hey... if you are gonna have one then why not that one.


Question: Why is it "addictive"? - because society or some shrink says so??

BS!!

Come on..............................

I love Tea Leoni. If I was married to her I would have a sex addiction problem to and I would not go to rehab.
