Sami Sheen, the eldest daughter of exes Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards, is slamming her younger sister Lola for sharing “homophobic and transphobic” posts, particularly during Pride Month.
The 21-year-old said in a TikTok Wednesday that she was blocked by Lola, 20, after challenging the latter for reposting hateful rhetoric.
“My mom did an amazing job raising me and my sister to be very accepting of everyone’s sexuality and gender identity and everything else under the sun. So that’s why it is so sad for me to see that my own sister is homophobic and transphobic now,” Sami said, noting that she wasn’t planning to air the issue on the internet but that her sister’s reposts are “public for everyone to see.”
Sami said she’s “disgust[ed]” by the posts and how “conformed to her religion” Lola has become. The 20-year-old recently embarked on a newfound faith journey and got baptized earlier this year.
While Sami said she understands that people have their different beliefs, they “don’t need to be transphobic or homophobic to follow your beliefs.” She called on her sister — and anyone else who takes umbrage with a person’s identity — to “stop trying to tell people that there’s something wrong with them because they identify a certain way.”
“Someone’s sexuality and someone’s gender identity should not affect you,” she insisted.
Adding that she herself is part of the LGBTQ community and wishes Lola “was a f–king ally,” Sami said she’s both “really sad” and “embarrassed” that her own sister holds such views.

“It’s just honestly disgusting, close-minded behavior and I really hope she snaps out of this eventually,” Sami said. “Just for five minutes, put the Bible down … and pick up the Pride flag and support the f–king community, because I don’t know if you’ve realized, it is Pride Month and you reposting those things during Pride Month is just otherworldly. I don’t know who you are anymore. This is not you. … Do better, seriously.”
