The Sheen Family

Martin Sheen is extremely proud of his talented and famous children! Emilio Ramón Estévez, Emilio Estevez, Charlie Sheen, and Renée Estévez are the children of this Golden-Globe-winning actor and his partner, Janet Sheen.

Martin - whose real name is Ramón Gerardo Estévez - used the stage name Sheen very early in his career as an actor. Janet Sheen and Charlie Sheen also use this name to call him, although, throughout his career, Ramón has been listed as both Estévez and Sheen.

In a June 2022 discussion with a magazine called Closer, the actor said that he never anticipated his children to enter the entertainment industry. But they eventually did, and at least he was relieved that Emilio never altered his name.

"I was so preoccupied with myself that I was unaware of their desire to be performers," he recounted. "At one point, when I was performing in a concert, Emilio appeared. I thought he came to pay me a visit, but he had been cast in the same production. The only impact I had on my child Emilio was to preserve his name. His agency advised the child to change his real name to Sheen when he first began his career, but he refused. I thank God that he did not change his name."

In spite of the fact that some of his offspring are recognized by the name Estévez while others are renowned for their works as Sheens - there are no doubts about the Sheen family's exceptional talents. In many magazine conversations, the Sheen family's children often describe how it felt to grow up with a celebrity father and inherit some of his brilliance.
