UPDATE: This post was from early November. Re-posted so you awesome readers can go check out the comments, worth it if you are a fan. The couple insists that they are normal, happy and boring.
Rumor is that Heather Locklear's marriage is on the rocks. Her husband, Richie Sambora, is on tour right now with Bon Jovi and being separated is taking it's toll.
Sources say that it all started when Heather was working on the tv series LAX. She didn't spend as much time at home and they started to grow apart. A friend of the couple said, "Heather hardly saw Richie at all last year. At this point, it's like they're becoming strangers."
Meanwhile, there are rumors that her ex Tommy Lee may be hovering in the background. Heather turned 44 in September and sources say she was "begging" for Lee to help her celebrate. Damn, she's 44? As usual, a rep said that there are not any marital problems.

I always wondered why they had only one child. Poor Richie.
kat in da hat: who's the father?
heather: you can be my demi. i'll love you and when you hit the wall in a few years, i'll change your diapers.
I hope this story isn't true. I've always adored Heather and thought her marriage to Richie Sambora was a wonderful thing. They seem so solid. And btw, Heather has always said she only wanted one child to spoil. Ava is gorgeous.

XXXOOO
schrympfreidreyece: LOL!
gabsmash is my american idol.
omg! they only have one child because she's had trouble having any more- its not because they're drifting - shit like this always comes out when the husbands away!!! lets all calm down!
Seems like they're saying that it's more to do with Heather being away than Richie. Truth is she was with him in Chicago only the other week at a Bon Jovi gig, standing in the front row wearing a Bon Jovi T-Shirt. Sounds like a combination of a years worth of crap all rolled into a ball of crap that then makes a story because without their reference to LAST YEAR they don't have a story...in fact, I'm having trouble really seeing what the story is. Problems because she took on a demanding TV show LAST YEAR? Hang on a minute, they've got through a year of marriage since then and still seem pretty happy so what's the issue? I don't get it.
FUCK YOU Heather Locklear, FUCK YOU. She deserves EVERY LITTLE BIT OF THIS because she completely brought it on herself. I cannot believe that ANY woman would treat her husband the way she has treated Richie, and the saddest bit of all is that he loves her SO SO SO much he lets it all go and just carries on regardless because what else can he do? She has backed him into a corner; she took him away from his friends and family, only to make sure he stayed by only having the one child. Now he has no way out...he ADORES his little girl and there is no way he would ever EVER leave her, but the only people aside from his daughter who he really cares about are all on the East Coast. Heather orchestrated that very carefully let me tell you.
SHE went on national television and called him by her bastard of an ex-husbands name. SHE is the one who goes off working and doesnt come back for weeks on end (Richie makes a point of never EVER working for more than 10 days in a row so he can go home and be with his daughter). SHE is the one calling her bastard of an ex-husband and inviting him out. SHE is the one who CONTINUALLY puts Richie down publicly with blatant LIES...I just watched her A&E Biography and she spoke about him 'not being so supportive'.
EXCUSE ME YOU DUMB, INSOLENT INCONSIDERATE CALOUS COLD-HEARTED BITCH....WHO WAS THE ONE WHO GAVE UP HIS LIFE FOR YOU? WHO WAS THE ONE WHO QUITE HAPPILY PACKED HIS BAGS AND MOVED TO NEW YORK SO YOU COULD MAKE A FOOL OF YOURSELF ON SPIN CITY? WHO WAS THE ONE WHO TOOK NEARLY TWO YEARS OFF WORK TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR CHILD SO YOU COULD GO BACK TO THE DYING MELROSE PLACE???
I'll be honest here, she DOES NOT deserve him. He has been nothing but an incredible, and I mean INCREDIBLE, husband and father. He has done anything and everything to support, provide, protect and love his family only for her to completely disrespect him. Yet, somehow she continues to get away with it. Can you imagine what would happen if he had gone on National TV and called her Cher?! (given the way Heather looks these days she's about one injection away from being Cher)
My opinion is that Richie should WALK AWAY now with his head held high and fight tooth and nail for the child he has pretty much raised single handedly. Heather has never been much of a mother to the child, in fact she is the first person to say that the child couldn't care less about her, it's all Daddy in Ava's eyes. Daddy is the only person the little girl wants so if the courts have any common sense they'll award sole custody to Richie and let the cunt go back to her drug addled, wife abusing, alcoholic, child-murdering ex.
Wow. A lot was covered there in the previous post.
I think this is really sad that they may be splitting up. They have been such an adorable couple together and have had a lot of years together and hopefully they can work it all out and stay together.
Hmm.....that one long comment summed it up! I met Richie a couple of times before he was married and he is one kind gentleman. This is my take. Richie is an artist, first and foremost. Artist's appreciate beauty sincerely and is a romantic. By seeing Heather's biography and hearing what she DOES reveal, I've come to my own conclusion that I've held for years despite people saying what a sweetheart she is. I'm sure she is but she kinda stalked Richie and set her eyes on him from a far and knew the right person to set her up with him. And then she charmed and sexed her way into his heart. Face it-she is like winning another Grammy-the ultimate chick for a rock star, not that Richie is shallow but I'm sure he fell so hard. I just feel bad for lil Ava. She looks so precious and innocent and I know that Richie will stick it out for her sake. What will keep this marriage together will be PRIDE. She can't stand to lose and he can't bear the thought of losing the only family he has. His parents are older and she's denied him another baby-which is traumatic if you know anything about Richie. He's stated many times that he wanted to have kids, not just one, the way he grew up-an only child. But he's whipped and she has the power, sad to say. Heather Locklear is a very smart, astute woman who knows how to use her celebrity, beauty, and charm to get what she wants-and at one time she wanted Richie and she got him. No different than what Priscilla Presley did to Elvis. Now let's just hope Richie doesn't end up like Elvis. And yes, Richie has been the main parent and it shows. He LOVES that child-she is his soul mate and reason for going on, I'm sure. I must hand it to Heather-she's got him where she wants him and it irks me to hear her go on about how romantic he is and all she can say is that when he looks funny in his sleep, she just imagines him with a cowboy hat on singing again and loves him allover. She's in love with the image of him-not the real man. And he loves her so much..but I'm sure he's smart enough to see what's happening and soon will decide what's best for him. In my opinion, Richie needs to get back to his roots, forget everyone (except Ava and his family/true friends) and be appreciated for who he is. Just seeing him makes me want to cook him a great meal of linguine with pancetta and burgundy wine sauce and authentic Italian dessert. I just want to feed him and if I was her, I'd have had 4 babies with no complaint and still lived an artistic life and at least compromised. And take his name!!! She should be proud to be his wife. I think Heather's in love. With herself. It's all about her..and mark my words..she'll have issues when that lil girl turns out to be a knockout beauty and takes some of that spotlight away from her. Richie, we love you-hang in there! I've loved you near and far and you're still a star, no matter where you are! SD
I'm so sad to hear about Richie having problems but it doesn't surprise me.. I knew it all along..since the beginning. I could see it because it's all about HEATHER, from day one. She wouldn't have another baby for him, she's so focused on career (making sure she gets her fix of admiration) and won't take his name. The thing that I find most disrespectful is her keeping the house she shared with Tommy Lee. How Richie agreed to that is beyond me, but I suspect he was head over hills in love at the time. I'm sure these things have weighed on his mind but he focuses on his two truest loves: Ava and music. He's a loving, protective father and I'm sure that little girl knows she's loved by him. My wish is that Richie be true to himself, get back to his roots, and stand up for himself. There are so many beautiful women who would be honored to be with this beautiful, artistic soul. But unfortunately, only one is the mother of his child and has control.....and there is also pride..nobody likes to fail or admit their fairytale marriage isn't what it appears to be. I just feel sad for lil Ava-I hope that this is just a rumor for her sake, but something tells me it is truth and Heather will do all in her power to dissipate this rumor and make sure everyone knows she's boss and Richie does whatever it takes to please HER. There are many more things I could say but the bottom line is: Heather is beautiful-she's smart, and she knows how to use her assets to get what she wants and in 1994, she wanted Richie Sambora and indeed got him. She uses sex and her interviews are vapid and superficial at best. She goes on about all he does for her, but when asked what she does for him-she giggles "sexual favors". How far can that go? And she doesn't cook..she admittedly can only fix salad, boil water, microwave, and make tacos. That makes for ten years of great meals. If they were regular middle-class people, they'd have never made it. Money makes life easier and helps one escape realities. Just seeing Richie makes me want to fix him some authentic homemade pasta with pancetta and wine sauce and a great dessert. If she loves him, she should take his name and stop being so selfish. Heather's too into herself and needs to take care of Richie better or someone else will. Just my two cents. Richie keep shining wherever you are-among planets, you're the star! Love, SD
If what you say is true, it sounds like Heather is on a losing streak here...
yet another failed marriage. Who's going to want to touch her now eh? My heart goes out to Richie and Ava, Heather can go to hell. Seems like Richie won't have a problem meeting anyone new but Heather certainly will.
Someone please fill me in on the nasty things she has said about Richie over the years. I was unaware of it.
In addition, I've always beleived that she was a snake in the grass. My entire life I've always heard where she was a sweetheart and considered "The nicest woman in Hollywwod". No one, I mean NO ONE is that perfect epecially in the CUT THROAT industry they're in. I'd always beleived that was just the public image she wanted to project and she did. Well, at 44 years old the rest of the world is now seeing the real HEATHER.
i can't believe the crap some people write. You people talk like you know Heather and Richie personally. You all sound like pathetic groupies or obsessed rock star fans who actually think that Richie cares what you think or say. Get over it girls, he's not interested in you, and stop acting so juvenile and jealous. Get a life you losers!
Well, she's never put him first in any decision she makes. It appears as if HE'S the lucky one to have her and HE loves her more. You're right, no one's that perfect! I've heard her say that he bugs her watching TV when she's trying to sleep cuz she must arise at 4 am to make it to the set of LAX. I've also heard her say how goofy he looks with headphones but she closes her eyes and imagines him as he looks in younger years, in music videos. You know, she rarely brings up his parents-only family he has pretty much and doesn't seem to care that this man wants more children. All she talks about is her career, her figure, her wardrobe and how much Richie kisses her ass. I've just heard word that the rumor is TRUE and Richie is spending much time in NJ. He probably misses that part of him-she's all about show and having attention and so spoiled. He's such a simple guy who only wants to make great music and enjoy family and friends, and other hobbies. I always thought everyone bought into that whole "sweetheart" image of her. But if you look at the DVD parts with her in it of 1,000,000 fans can't be wrong, you'll see how she really is and how this has all been her set-up to land this rock star..but now as time goes on and age kicks in, she's not loving the man..but holding on to an image. Let him go, so someone can love him and cherish him for real! If I'm wrong, then sorry Heather, but I think people know you're not perfect and happy 24-7 but just great with PR and have great connections in the business. Love to Richie and Ava at this difficult time.
Thanks gypsyraven1973 for filling in some of the blanks for me. I think we can all agree that our hearts and prayers go out to Richie and Ava during their troubling time.
I hope the rumors aren't true, they make a great couple and have a beautful daughter together. After the delivary she had with Ava who could blame her for not wanting to go through another pregancy!I just hope everything works out for them!
For some reason I think they'll make it. One hint though...if Heather wants a man who is going to be home then she might consider not marrying Rock stars. LOL
Hell I'll take him. He's hot!
Well Rosie,
I hope for Richie's sake they don't make it. How many times has she done this before? It's just this time SHE GOT CAUGHT!!! Even I would know better than to party in public, knowing my celebrity status, knowing the papazarri is always around and espically knowing I had invited other celebs (Denise Richards), and then to phone my ex, c'mon, that was a vulcano waiting to rupture. Not to mention she called out Tommy Lees' name on the Live with Regis and Kelly show. I think that OPPS!!! right there was a window into her intermost thoughts. I pray Richie will do the right thing and pull out now before it gets and worse for him and that beautiful daughter he has. Thank Heather for the Daughter and bid her FARWELL WITH GOD SPEED.
Thanx! It's not like anyone wants to bash this chick Heather on purpose-she's probably a good person but just not Richie's true soul mate. And that comment about anyone commenting on his behalf makes one a "groupie" or whatever is just crap. Probably one of her friends (LOL) She is so transparent, come on! When has she ever been deep or REAL-she just comes across as someone who's not as innocent as she looks and I know she's a bitch. How? She laughed about an incident that happened where a fan had requested her to take a pic of the fan and Tommy Lee. Instead of taking a good photo, she bragged that she took a photo of their feet. Imagine that person going to develop their film and thinking they're getting a pic of them and their fave rocker only to see feet? That's not cool whatsoever. It just showed how she can be catty, jealous, and cold. She's so used to being told she's so frick'n gorgeous and being admired. She's not a genius-on many levels, she's dumb-can't even make her man a good meal or park her car parallel-I know this cuz it was my friend who had to park it for her. She locked her baby in the Jeep in the summertime. She picks dumb shows to be in and lets herself be seen in public with a Hanson shirt? You know Richie was embarrassed of that when he knows about real music. Then he lets her sing on one of his records but says it was her debut and finale..cuz she sucks. She's just pretty and that's it. Yeah, she can act.. as long as the role is a bitch, psycho, control freak boss, or slut-cuz she's just being herself. I was trying to be nice, but that's the truth. She needs to take care of her family first and screw that so-called acting. Richie has put his career on hold to be with her so why can't she be there for him and let him SHINE without trying to get some of it for herself. She always does that-has to be in everything. When Bon Jovi was on Oprah and they introduced the band, right away the association was made that Richie was married to Heather Locklear. And you could see the look on Richie's face like "damn, here we go again." It should be all about HIM for once and HIS way from now on. Tell the bitch, Richie! "Get your lazy ass in the kitchen and cook me some real food, #1! And we're moving the fuck out of this house and getting a house I WANT to live in cuz I'm not living in the same house and sleeping in the same room you fucked your ex-husband in. And you'd better be a damn good mother to my little girl and be around for her cuz I'm not the only one who should be reading to her, showing her how to do things, and putting her to bed. And you'd better start respecting me especially in public and take my last name cuz you're my wife. And if you don't like it, then get on bitch-but you're not taking my kid from me." That's what Richie needs to say and get some BALLS already cuz with all this, he's looking like a little bitch taking it up the ass. He can do better-she's not the only pretty girl in the world. And she stalked his ass and schemed to get him. No different than any other fan or groupie! Why is she different? Cuz she's famous? Fuck that shit-she's just like the rest of his fans, except we accept him and don't humiliate him. Right???

To all those who support Richie, I am whole-heartedly in agreement with you. And to the person who wrote that very long post which was clearly FOR Richie and AGAINST Heather, that was like a sigh of relief for me. I don't want to bash Heather, because Richie does love her to pieces. And I completely adore Richie, therefore would hate to speak badly of someone close to his heart. And while none of us truly know their entire situation and can't really speak on behalf of it, I will say this: based on reports I've heard, articles I've read, and things I've seen/heard in various form of media - Heather DOES NOT deserve someone as amazing, kind, caring, and giving as Richie Sambora. He is a man among the greatest men, and may he find all the happiness in the world no matter which direction things may lead for him.
Goodness gracious! Ok, I will behave. Thank you to that last person who posted...I shouldn't have bashed Richie's beloved-that didn't come out right. It's just unnerving to me that this man who clearly has devoted ten or more years to this woman and has shown nothing but admiration, love, and respect for..that she'd be selfish, inconsiderate, and walk all over him-you know..take advantage of his patience and kindness. These are the ones that ruin good men. They hurt them so deeply that when the next one comes along (if there should ever be one) they pay for what the first one did. If that made any sense. I just hope Richie keeps that golden heart in tact regardless of what happens. Love to RS, his lil Ava, and of course all you devoted fans who want the best for this artist who's given us the gift of his music! Love & Peace...
I'm with all you anti-Heather peeps...I've just seen pictures of her up on WireImage.com and she is NOT wearing her wedding ring.
The thing with Heather is, you can't take that to mean anything because she simply picks and chooses where and when she decides to wear it...for example themovie premiere for her ''Perfect Man'' movie, wedding ring on finger....out parading her poor daughter in front of the cameras at a Ronald McDonald event, no ring.
Every opportunity to undermine her husband or so it would seem. I can't bear women like her, they manipulate and plot to get EVERYTHING they want and then shove it back in people's faces most of all the people who they hurt in Heather's case her husband and child. Her husband is in NY playing gigs and his ring is quite clearly on his finger as it has en every single day since she put it on his finger almost 11 years ago.
Leave the rotten slag Richie, she does not deserve you one little bit. You can do better, heck as someone said before at least Cher treated you with SOME respect..albeit very little but at least something's better than nothing.
Is that why he had to drink for most of those 11 years? Yes, he does wear that ring like it's a Superbowl ring or something. Maybe Richie thinks she's the best he can get-honestly, he's human just like us and maybe he loves having that "trophy". She is very pretty afterall..and he probably hears how lucky HE is to be with her. So that's gotta feed a man's ego. Still, he can do better and YOUNGER! But it would be HELL cuz she'd make it HELL with the little one..and poor lil girl probably thinks she's got a perfect lil family so that would hurt her. So the only logical solution is for Heather to come down to EARTH and realize she's been blessed and honor her husband and somebody please give this girl a Bible. Does she even believe in God? She never talks about anything deep so who knows....
Umm...maybe he's actually committed to making a marriage work? His wedding ring is extremely important to him as it SHOULD be to anyone who gets married and is a symbol of his commitment to her. She obviously doesn't feel the same way. Superbowl ring is a bit of a cheap shot. As for the drinking, he has NOT spent 11 years drinking...and to say so is downright slanderous. I would say there was an issue with alcohol from mid-2003 to early 2004 but that was quite obviously his way of dealing with being on tour, simple as that, and it has happened to him before. His drinking has never been an issue, he has always been in control of it and has always said so himself. He's far too moderate a person to allow extremes like that, and far too in control of himself.
As for him seeing her as a 'trophy', I don't believe that's true for a minute. He fell in love, simple as that, and I guess it's fair to say that there's an obvious attraction there but he has dated girls that aren't like Heather, for instance Ally Sheedy who spent her entire relationship with him looking like a piece of crap and now rarely even shaves under her armpits. Charming.
For the record, Heather is Methodist and has said that their daughter was christened into the Methodist faith. Richie is Catholic and as such has also been teaching their daughter about Catholicism, saying prayers with her each night.
Richie is fine! He looks great and if he had any alcohol issue it would be apparent but it isn't! I saw some pics of the three of them and in all but one pic, either the photographer can't get it right or they can't look in the same direction all at once. Sheesh! And she has lil Ava dressed horribly in that R. McDonald thing. I'm not rich or famous but I will tell you my 9 year old daughter is always well-groomed and I make sure she's dressed well. And by that I mean for her sake-not designer bs type stuff. I think she can do better as a mommy. But Heather is always camera-perfect and born to pose. It's clear who's queen and princess. Hell, how did she get between Jon and Richie in some of those Philly Soul pics? She's no part of that! There she is, smack between Jon and Richie.
Here's a brain twister?
We all have our opinions about lil' mis' prissy but do you think Ritchie has a clue as to the type of woman he married to? Or is his head still in the clouds and he's clueless ABOUT HOW HORRIBLE SHE TREATS HIM?
HIT ME BACK
I think its a little bit of him ignoring what he sees because realistically that is what marriage is about, give and take as well as compromise, but I don't think he realised it would be as much giving with very little if any taking. He isn't clueless about it he just has class and deals with each day as it comes because that is what it means to be adult and in an adult relationship.
as to whether they've seperated or not, only time will tell. I certainly hope not.
Why are you all picking on Heather?!! She's such a sweet girl and doesn't deserve this. Jealousy must be rearing its ugly head. She's having to deal with not working and everyday life in this world as a human being-just as everyone else. Just because she's gorgeous and famous doesn't mean she doesn't have moments of despair and I don't think interviews, articles, and photos can tell you EVERYTHING about how she treats him. He's obviously the more sentimental one-but that doesn't mean she feels any less-maybe she internalizes her feelings more and in private probably showers him with love. He's 46 years old-I don't feel sorry for him in any way. He seems to be fine with her AS IS, so what is everybody's problem?? If it's not your family, your friend, your spouse-then it's best to mind your own business. Look at her-she must have a lot on her mind and she's much smarter than people give her credit for-probably the logical one that Richie needs-he's too much of a dreamer. They balance each other out and if he does leave (which he never will) then any man would be lucky to have her. She's too good for him.
SHE'S TOO GOOD FOR HIM? I don't see him going around calling her by some ex's name (and then continually bringing that ex up in interviews whilst saying ''I wish people wouldn't ask me about him''-YEAH RIGHT, that shows intelligence. I don't see him hissing at their child on national TV the way she did on American Idol, and I'm not the one saying that, the press were- gold star for mothering techniques. poor child didn't know where to look, aside from the fact that she shouldn't have been there in the first place. Heather was so upset that people might see her as a bad mother that she went on EVERY chatshow and brought it up in a futile attempt to defend herself from what the whole world had already seen.
I don't see him walking around without his wedding ring, even when their marriage is under such scrutiny. You would think she would want to diffuse the situation but no, Heather does as Heather damn well pleases. I don't see him behaving the way she is, out partying with the lovely (not)Denise Richards every opportunity.
I don't see his friends telling everyone that she loves him more than he loves her, as her best friend said a few years back of Richie. To have YOUR best friend say publicly that your husband loves you more than you love him is just heartbreaking.
I don't see him demanding she move to New Jersey and sleep in the bed he shared with various exes. I don't see him causing problems with her career (quite the opposite; where she goes out of her way to cause problems for him he has only ever bent over backwards to please her.)
Yeah, right, Richie's the lucky one (NOT)
I didn't know she scolded her child in public..Wow! Can someone please elaborate and fill me in? Thanx. And again, she's the lucky one..not vice versa.

So saying she doesn't deserve him may have been too strong a statement but who really knows? As for the posts i find it amusing that this gypsygirl wrote such long tirades on Richie's behalf then on her last remark she's in the dark about an incident! You are the most irritating-go away. I've seen your profile and your nowhere near heather in looks or anything, just another pathetic obsessed Richie fan. Change your haircut-it's obvious you're trying to emulate the person you keep bashing. And the rest of you are pathetic as well!
I LOVE ALL THE REMARKS!!!
It just goes to show, although we are a selfish and corrupt society, we still cher for the underdog, and hate to see when people mistreat/abuse the kindness of others.
Much the same way we rallied around Jennifer Aniston during her troubled time with what's his name, (Oh Yeah, Brad).
Keep posting, I love them!!!
I'll ignore that ugliness. Yes, I love RS and will keep supporting him in everyway. This forum is for people to say what they feel and I make no apologies. HAVE A NICE DAY!

Got a question?
Does anyone know if they've got a pre-nupitial. I hope for his sake they do? I get the feeling he has a little bit more money that she does.
Write back
I'm sure they have one. But nobody answered my question.. What's the story on her yelling at her child at the American Idol show? That really bugged me-poor child! I only know she openly supported the competitor of Bo Bice (whom Richie played guitar for his CD) She's Republican, he's Democrat. She's Methodist, he's Catholic, and on and on..these are not trivial things but she says they never "discussed" anything when getting together. So another story goes of love at first sight, or lust at first sight-then years later realize they're not so compatible???
With regard to Heather scolding Ava, this happened on American Idol LIVE and was merely because the child was a little NERVOUS and didnt know what to say...what 7 year old wouldn't be a little shy?!! Instead of helping the child Heather was INCREDIBLY impatient and just hissed the answers at her. To be honest the child came off as more mature than her mother. The press labelled Heather the celeb Mom from Hell. Wonderful title.
With regard to a pre-nup, it was widely reported that they did have one though I personally never believed that. Richie DOES have far FAR FAR more money than her (she actually told Howard Stern that that was the reason she was 'keeping him') though I doubt money would ever be an issue from his part. He has always been the one to shar everything with her, whereas she has been quick to keep everything seperate. Richie has always had a beach house in Laguna Beach, and even after they married Heather used to say that they were going to 'Richie's' house for the weekend. EVERY TIME she said it he corrected her and ended up getting so frustrated he put this beautiful plaque up by the front door that said 'Heather and Richie's Chateau' to remind her that everything he owned was now hers too. He has given her everything, and it's very mch been a case of what's yours is mine and what's mine is mine on Heather's part.
Wow! Poor lil girl. That's a lot of pressure for an adult, let alone a child. Well, she's not really a "kid" person anyhow. As far as everything else everyone's shared, you've noticed things even I didn't see or read. Really! All I had was my perception from day one and I remember when their wedding was splashed allover the tabloids and magazines, I felt sick because I KNEW that Richie had hurt other girls who truly, truly loved him and chosen this one for apparent reasons and was blinded in love. I still remember thinking, "Good job Heather! You're no different from me-just rich, famous, and thinner and blonde." So I went back to my true music (Beatles, Hendrix) and left my Bon Jovi records alone for a long time. Couldn't even hear a RS song without feeling crushed. Because I'd met him and experienced him so I knew what SHE HAD and still has and that is something very wonderful!! No lie either. Swear!
DO TELL GIRL!!!
What do you mean, you'd had and experienced him for yourself?
Tell us what's he's like in person.
WE'RE WAITING!!!
Just reading about how someone mentioned Heather as the Mom from hell...I found one of the press things that was written at the time and it's heartbreaking to read but an exact account of what happened...except Heather actually ROLLED HER EYES every time the poor little girl spoke. What mother DOES that to her child?!
Heather Locklear was in the audience, part of her program to recover her career after "LAX." Her pretty little daughter was sitting on her lap; only the girl blows all the cues Seacrest and Locklear give her. Seacrest asked if she likes "Idol" and she answered, "Um." "Say yes!" snapped Locklear. Seacrest then asked who her fave is; she was supposed to say Anthony Fedorov because he was up next, but she cannot tell a lie and so she says nothing. "Anthony!" Locklear hissed, and the girl then says, "Anthony." Really hope ABC News was watching; another great May sweeps story: Celebrity Moms From Hell.

It's really not something that I ever bragged about or tried to get attention for because there's enough that have done that. It's very much my own experience and I realize that others will blow me off as just another girl..and I am.
I swore to him I'd never tell because of my age then. I can only say that he was born to love and naturally has a very earthy scent but then he kinda smells like an oatmeal cookie? Very charming and hilarious-his jokes at the time were very "soul" and he can do excellent impersonations of Al Pacino, Eddie Murphy-that was one thing that I so loved and remembered was his sense of humor. And everyone has a different kind of humor but his was just-I mean he could quote JJ from Good Times and just have you in stitches cuz he did it so good. And yes, he was Dy-no-MITE!!!!! (lol) Is that specific enough??

I LOVE IT (LOL)!!!
Yes, that was specific enough. I didn't want the nitty-gritty. Cherish those memories, I would :)
But a serious question.
What is the relationship like between him and Jon? Are they really as close as they appear?
Reason I ask, it seems as if Heather is just picking up where Jon left off. What I mean, it seems that his personality is so kind and agreeable he becomes a doormat for people.
You know, I can honestly tell you that I don't know exactly what their relationship is but later on they had that bust-up then Jon did "Blaze of Glory" and Richie did "Stranger In This Town." You are welcome to e-mail me but I don't feel comfy disclosing anything else. I feel like I was lucky and that he was good to me and I'm grateful. I can't give him anything back but his dignity. It hurts for me to hear of people bashing him-for someone who's given much of himself, it's hurtful and I'll die defending him-he deserves it.
To whom it may concern..I elaborated more in my blog. You are welcome to read it. Have a great weekend. And pinkie-swear, double-crossies! Only truth..
Hey guys...quickie note. This post is by far one of the most elaborate, informing and respectful comment participation areas on this site. Thank you for your input- and for taking the time to share!
I was reading this blog...interesting comments but where is everyone getting their info from about the American Idol incident? I've never heard half of this stuff.
That's a very good question. I was wondering the same thing. I pulled up wireimages.com and there was a picture of Heather and her daughter at American Idol but no negative comments. I even search www.highbeam.com, where it chronicles all the articles you can possible imagine from endless sources (e.g. mags., books, tabloids etc.)and I couldn't pull it up. Someone please fill us in.
It was posted in various places, you're obviously not looking hard enough...
FACT IS, it didn't even HAVE to be printed by the press, THE WHOLE OF THE US and indeed THE WORLD got to see her behaving like a completely self-absorbed bitch towards her daughter. God forbid the child should get nervous and find it difficult to know what to say for fear of embarassing her deluded ''mother'' (rolls eyes).
Ok...well I'm just asking because I like to read it for myself..so say where it can be found and I'll read it for myself! One thing I did read was about Heather dissing other women who even looked Richie's direction while she clutched his hand walking through the Four Seasons Hotel..after a gig in Chicago. So..she might be insecure..but then again she knows there's a bunch of women after her man! Who knows one would be in that situation, esp. with rumors of trouble in your marriage.
Still didn't say where it came from??? I like to read things for myself. Well there's a note from E! News that recently after a gig in Chicago, Heather was having a drink with Richie in the hotel lobby and spotted a female and gave her a very dirty look. So looks like she's getting insecure...
I agree with the previous post. To the SMART-ASS who claims it's posted in so many places. TELL US WHERE!!!
Like I previously stated I've checked various sites and did not find it.
I hope this an adult site and not a kiddie porn site.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE INTELLIGENT POSTS. PLEASE DON'T POST!!!
what on earth is that last person going on about?! Weird.
I think the article in question is posted above from what I can see...
A GUILTY CONSCIENCE WILL ALWAYS TALK.
I read the E! News story and I think Heather has a lot of explaining to do. I agree with the person who posted the comment about her being insecure at this point. I certainly think she is.
I say that because if it was me and I KNEW I HAD NOT PHONED TOMMY LEE, and I had nothing to hid, there's no way in HELL I would have taken my behind to Chicago just to see him perform. How many times has she seen him perform over the years? Hundreds!!!
I would have been in L.A. with my daughter, who I'm sure is in school, making sure she completed homework and all that mommy stuff and been saying to the media, "SCREW YOU"
What the hell was she doing having Tommy Lee's number anyway? Unless they had a kid together and a reason to talk, then she had NO business with his number-she has NO class, despite what her image is. Screw her for doing that-especially with Lee, who cheated on her with a porn chick and is so gross compared to Richie. She's a PHONY and now she's exposed herself. Why should she care if another woman looks his way if she's the grand dame? She's a shallow, arrogant, spoiled broad and Richie should listen to that voice telling him to run!! I also find it odd that his bandmates, including the nice Jon Bon Jovi can't stand her. I wonder why..Hmm.
Thanx Gabs! You're a cool chick! Ok, ok, I scrolled down and read all the comments and WOW! The consensus is that Richie should move on. Ok... Well, let's see: He's on tour right now...The holiday season is here...Lil Ava is #1.. I'd say that Richie has enough on his mind and if he makes any move, it will be next year when he comes home and has a chance to rest and think things over. I think he'll assess where things are by then-if she's made any changes, meeting him halfway. I truly think he's willing to give her a chance to save herself. But if she keeps this crap up, her days are numbered. That's just my thinking though. I do think that I've had it up to here with HL and her antics. She is disgracing at every turn and looking pathetically desperate these days.
Wow, I didn't know the bandmates didn't like her. What the story behind that?
Someone gives us the dirt on that?
Well she's always demanding attention.. Jon is a very down-to-earth person. SO are the other guys. Why should she be queen bee and be treated any different than the rest of their wives? Oh, another quickie. A friend saw her up-close after on of the concerts recently and said she could see the scars where she's had plastic surgery on her face. Is that something or what? I knew those L'Oreal commercials were fake. No way could she be that flawless. I hope she doesn't get too stiff though. Friend also said she slapped Richie on the butt for show but he didn't look amused. She's beginning to make an ass of herself and who's buying that statement released?? Of course they will deny it-it's embarrassing to admit there's trouble, especially the way she brags about her "perfect life." I think reality has just slapped her silly!
They have a young child who needs security and DOESN'T need to see her parents marriage being ripped apart by the media. This is such a horrible situation and I'm glad they did release a statement because that poor little girl needs to be allowed to get on with her life and not see her parents marriage ripped apart like this. At this point it is all we have to go on and we should respect the fact that they have released it. THAT is why they have every right to deny everything. Leave them alone now, everything that needs to be said has been said and they should be left in peace to raise their child.
Good Morning All.
It's 9 A.M. in my neck of the woods, don't know what time it is where your are, But I thought I'd add some additional comments to "THE BANDMATES HATING HEATHER"
There's a very good article on the NY daily News website about the state of their marriage. It says that Richie (poor Richie) has begged Heather for another child and she refuses, claiming she wants to ressurect her career (LOL).
It also says that she was present in Chicago with the other bandmate wives, but has gone missing from other dates. I inferred from that, that the other wives were present on the other dates but not Heather.
And lastly it said how on the last tour (BOUNCE, I presume) Jon Bon Jovi was so irrated with her that he requested, and rode on a separate bus, by himelf. NOW, ISNT'T THAT SAD? She's that irrating.
And the comment about the face lift. I've believe it. There was a plastic surgeon "to the stars" on TV a while ago, talking about all the stars who have had work done and he said something very profound, "if their over the age of a mouseketeer {forgive my spelling} they've had work done."

State of the union not Bon Jovial for Sambora, Locklear
Heather Locklear and Richie Sambora
Richie Sambora and Heather Locklear are due to celebrate their 11th anniversary Dec. 17, but to hear some people talk, their marriage may not last much past that.
Long seen as one of show business' sturdier couples, the Bon Jovi guitarist and the actress are said to be struggling to keep it together for the sake of their 8-year-old daughter, Ava.
"Richie is a sweetheart, but I don't know if he can take it much longer," one of his pals tells us.
Sambora, who's 46 and grew up an only child, is said to have begged the 44-year-old Locklear to try for another baby.
"She refuses," hisses the source. "She's more concerned about resurrecting what's left of her career."
Locklear, who starred on "Melrose Place" and "Spin City," has had a busy year — with regular appearances on "LAX" and "Boston Legal" and a movie, "The Perfect Man."
After waiting for her to come home, Sambora has now hit the road with his band. And though Locklear joined the other Bon Jovi wives at the band's show in Chicago, she's been missing from other dates.
Celebrating her birthday recently in L.A., she invited her ex-husband, rocker Tommy Lee, to join the party at Koi. Sambora was not present.
Meanwhile, friends say she keeps her Richie — who, like Lee, is famous for his endowments — on a short leash.
"If he wants to go out for a beer with some friends, she's on his case," says a source. "He's loyal to her. But she needs 24-hour-a-day [butt]-kissing."
Heather and Richie wish their "friends" would shut up. "The real story is that there is no story," they told us in a joint statement. "The truth is that after 11 years together, we are still happily married. Boring but true."
It's also said that Sambora's bandmates barely tolerate her. During one stretch of the last tour, Jon Bon Jovi insisted on riding along in a different bus.
"If Richie divorced her, nobody would be heartbroken," says a source.
POWERED BY MIVA
I saw that incident on American Idol... and in my opinion, ya'll are making something out of nothing. I don't think she hissed or snapped at all at her daughter... not ... at ... all.
So which one of you are Heather's personal confidant that you have the inside scoop on their marriage?? Just wondering.
Shell, NO SHIT!!!!
I saw the American Idol thing and thought she was horrible to her daughter. How could a mother be so mean to her own child? And then when Jay Leno asked her if she gets up to bring her daughter to school she practically shouted out 'hell no!' God forbid she could be bothered to get out of bed even though she's not working. All you ever hear with nearly all of Richie's interviews is how he has just got back from dropping her to school, or him apologising for being late because he got caught in traffic on the way back from a parent/teacher conference. Didn't hear word of Heather being there...yet he's the one working at the moment not her.
who's Ritchie Sambora?
He is best known as the guitar player in Bon Jovi.
I just read a story in the Radar Magazine where it says that Richie and Heather fell out over his desire to have antoher child.
And want to know the sad part?
I remember years ago when Heather was pregnant with Ava, Tommy Lee spoke out against her saying she didn't like kids and never wanted to have kids. I also remember in the article where he said kids would come over to the house and she would have a fit if they touched or jumped on the sofas. And it was him (beleive that)who was the kiddie person and didn't mind them doing WHAT KIDS DO. I remember her blasting him back in the tabloids for his comments, and he said, "well maybe she's changed but I doubt it."
All these years we, the media, and everyone else slammed him for the type of person he was; and now it seems as if he was the only one who really had her figured out, and had his pulse on the situation.
God I hate this bitch...you're probably right, Tommy maybe did have it right about her and kids, though when I read it some parts I agreed with Heather over. I don't know if I'd be too happy with kids jumping on my couch as what would happen if they fell and hurt themselves? So that part I kid of agree with Heather over but I do think (and she said this herself to Howard Stern so I know I'm right) that she was definitely not a natural mother whereas Richie certainly seems to be a very natural father. He has said how he has wanted children since he was 15 and prayed for it all his life but when he met Heather he fell so deeply in love it suddenly didn't matter any more because he didn't marry her to have children. The issue with Richie seems to be more to do with his little girl growing up on her own which would break any father's heart especially if that father grew up as an only child himself and remembers being 'surrounded by so much love but being incredibly lonely''. Heather has seriously let her daughter down in Richie's eyes and that's been a problem for many years between them. Heather has battled with having another child for a long time and to be quite honest has been absolutely pathetic about it to the point where even her mother has got frustrated with her. To quote Heather, she has said that there are days when she turns round to Richie and says 'I want 10 more!!' and then the next day will say 'never again'. Some way to treat your husband and family, she could at least have been clear with him rather than leading him on, and indeed their whole family.
I have just seen pictures of her at Wireimage and she's STILL not wearing her wedding ring, though she does have a ring on her finger. You would think she would try a little harder right? Surely protecting her daughter from this would be paramount (if she was even half a mother) and she would put on her wedding ring for at least one night. Total and utter bitch. Here's hoping that she and her botoxed to death face disappear and then maybe she might wake up to the fact she has ruined something that was very special and broken her husbands heart into a million pieces, as well as hurt her daughters. How soul destroying to read an interview and Heather saying how their daughter keeps saying 'not without my Daddy' every time Heather goes out or puts on a particular outfit. Their daughter is obviously VERY VERY affected by her mother's behaviour, and was clued up to this a year ago. Even then Heather still didn't protect or even really listen to her child.
Here's the story from the Washington Post, for all you doubters.
Heather Locklear was in the audience, part of her program to recover her career after "LAX." Her pretty little daughter was sitting on her lap; only the girl blows all the cues Seacrest and Locklear give her. Seacrest asked if she likes "Idol" and she answered, "Um." "Say yes!" snapped Locklear. Seacrest then asked who her fave is; she was supposed to say Anthony Fedorov because he was up next, but she cannot tell a lie and so she says nothing. "Anthony!" Locklear hissed, and the girl then says, "Anthony." Really hope ABC News was watching; another great May sweeps story: Celebrity Moms From Hell.
That's printed above, just not attributed to anyone. Thanks for finding the source though.
Not a good time to be Heather Locklear. Husband can't bear to be near her; daughter who would rather be with her father and has told her mother so; career down the pan; media woken up to the fact that she really is just a first class bitch who has manipulated everyone yet has mediocre talent to back it up hence the lack of work offers; media siding with Richie over her, which is highly unusual since usually the sympathy lies with the woman yet everything I've read and heard has been completely anti-Heather; friends all talking to the media so she now has very few people left around her who she can trust.
Seriously, I can't see her recovering. The worst thing for everyone is that no-one is going to take this 'marriage' seriously ever again. This mud has stuck and Heather's name is attached to it. Serves her right.
Who's anonymous?
PPFFFF what a hell!!
Heather is a bitch and a terrible mother I hope Richie leaves her . There are a million great women out there .
...ok, just want to say one thing about this whole thang, and that is this...YOU PEOPLE NEED TO GET SOME RESEMBLANCE OF A LIFE!
Why are there so many people interested in these poor people's private lives? Leave them be. Let them sort out their own problems and stop posting nasty comments about Heather as none of you know all the facts and it is obvious most of these comments are speculative, jealous trite by lovesick groupies. Get a life.
I am not female like most of you that have posted and although I value Richie Sambora as a talented musician who produces some of the finest quality (and most of my favourite) music that is ridiculously underrated in the music scene in my opinion as he didn't receive proper commercial saturation for his solo albums as he should have, I respect him as an artist but don't concern myself with his personal life like most of you.
In a relationship it takes two to tango, and his marriage problems with Locklear could very well be equally his fault. Stop speculating, and stop beleiving everything the media seduces the public with. Focus on when Mr. Sambo is bringing out his next solo album. Which, might I add, does anyone know anything about? I've read he's reported saying he has practically written about twelve songs and has a new album "in his pocket" waiting ready to go, and hopes to start recording sometime in 06'.
Just questioning if eBay permits you to market [url=http://www.ticketchoice.com.au]concert tickets[/url] on-line? Do you know if there are any restrictions based on what country you're in?
My parents have just known as me and asked if i could "get rid" of their two tickets to some concert as they wont have the ability to make it as a result of another family event.
Besides asking buddies etc, i thought ebay would be a great place to market them.
But whats ebay's policy on promoting tickets? Ive heard alot about it within the news but ive forgotten what happened.
and if it matters, the concert is inside this coming month
Thanks in advance for your advice.
