David Duchovny has confirmed he is receiving treatment for sex addiction.
In a case of life imitating art, the Californication star - wHO has been married to actress Tea Leoni for 11 age � appears to be having difficulty controlling his sexual urges.
"I have voluntarily entered a facility for the treatment of gender addiction," the actor tells People.
�I ask for respect and privateness for my wife and children as we trade with this situation as a family."
