Charlie Sheen's wife Brooke Mueller has not checked into a treatment center despite a flurry of internet rumors Wednesday morning, her attorney insists to UsMagazine.com.

Entertainment Tonight had reported that Mueller was in a drug and alcohol center in North Carolina. RadarOnline even goes as far to say she was smoking crack before going to rehab.(Mueller, 32, was arrested on a DUI charge in 1996 and for cocaine possession in 2001.)

Mueller was hospitalized last week for pneumonia. She was released this past Monday. Her lawyer tells Us, "She is still recovering from her recent infection and pneumonia."
