“X-Files” star David Duchovny, who currently plays a womanizing writer on the cable television series “Californication,” released a statement on Thursday (August 28) that he has entered a facility for treatment of sex addiction. He asked for privacy and respect for his family while they go through this time.
At this point, not much else is known, other than the basic announcement, which many news organizations picked up. Duchovny has been married to actress Tea Leoni since 1997, and they have two children.
It’s sad to see anyone struggle with sexual compulsion, but our hats are off to Duchovny for at least getting help. Hopefully many others who need help will follow his example.
