“This is what drugs and alcohol can do!” Heather Locklear’s recent outing sparked reactions
American actress H. Locklear was recently photographed by photojournalists in Calabasas, California. Her appearance caused a stir – with a slightly disheveled appearance, a swollen face and pale skin. She was seen accompanied by her dog Mister and enjoying a walk in the lovely weather.
What many of her fans may not know is that Locklear has reportedly pleaded not guilty and received a 30-day sentence that she must serve in a rehab facility. Although no illegal substances or alcohol were found in her blood, she was charged with drunk driving.
In March 2008, a purported doctor called 911 concerned about Locklear’s well-being, leading to a police and emergency responder response to her home. A drug overdose was discovered there.
Locklear made her television debut in 1980 in an episode of ChiPs and later rose to prominence in the role of Sammy Jo Carrington on the series Dynasty. It was reported that she wasn’t wearing her engagement ring, fueling speculation of a split from Chris Heisser.
From 1994 to 2004, the iconic actress was married to Motley Crue musician Richie Sambora before entering into a relationship with Jack Wagner, which ended shortly after their wedding.
