David Duchovny Enters Rehab for Sex Addiction


David Duchovny (48), who is married to Téa Leoni, has entered rehab for what he describes as an addiction to sex. 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."
Duchovny plays a sex-obsessed character on the Showtime series Californication, which earned Emmy nominations for casting and cinematography. The show’s second season begins September 28.
Showtime said in a statement:
"All of us at Showtime wish David and his family the best during this very private time."
Showtime also hopes that David is cured of his sex addiction, but not his ability to play a sex addict.
