Denise Richards has banned Charlie Sheen's parents from seeing their granddaughters.

The 'Wild Things' actress is reportedly so furious with her estranged husband - who she is going through a messy divorce with - that she is cutting legendary actor Martin Sheen and his wife Janet out of their grandchildren's lives.

A source revealed to America's New York Post newspaper: "They are devastated. Both grandparents are devoted to those children. They didn't think they would be treated like this."

Richards was apparently unimpressed by Charlie's attempt to make amends when he told TV chat show host David Letterman that he had been a fool.

The mum-of-two has a restraining order against the 'Hot Shots' actor and has accused him of abuse, having a gambling problem and looking at pornography involving "young girls".

A representative for the actress, who has a restraining order issued against Charlie, has denied she is cutting Martin and Janet out of her children's lives.

The spokesperson said: "Denise would love for her daughters to have a relationship with Charlie's parents."
