Duchovny Checks Into Rehab For Sex Addiction

X-FILES star DAVID DUCHOVNY has entered rehab in a bid to control his sexual urges.

The actor, who is married to Tea Leoni, has a sex addiction, according to his lawyer, Stanton Stein.

In a statement the attorney has handed to website People.com, Duchovny says, “I have voluntarily entered a facility for the treatment of sex addiction. I ask for respect and privacy for my wife and children as we deal with this situation as a family.”

Ironically, the 48-year-old, who wed actress Leoni in 1997, plays a sex-loving author in his raunchy hit U.S. cable show Californication.

Duchovny and Leoni have two children – Madelaine West, nine, and Kyd, six.

Like alcohol, drug and other addictions, sex addiction is devastating for the addict and those close to him. I’m sad for Duchovny’s wife and kids, and very glad to hear that he’s in treatment.
The disease should be out in the open, but it’ such a painful thing to deal with, particularly for partners of the addict who are often betrayed in the most profound ways as a result of the addiction. I hope the media covers this respectfully.
