Heather Locklear Praises Ex David Spade: 'I Love Him So Much'
Heather Locklear still holds deep affection for her ex, David Spade. On December 6, 2023, the 63-year-old actress made an appearance at the Steel City Con in Monroeville, Pennsylvania. During a Q&A session, Locklear discussed her career and expressed her fondness for Spade, 60, with whom she briefly dated in 2006. Reflecting on her experience as a host for a 1994 Saturday Night Live episode, where she first met Spade—then a writer—Locklear said, "He is one of my favorite people. I love him so much." She also humorously recalled their first kiss, linking it to her father's birthday, saying, "His birthday was the same as my dad's." Locklear added, "Oh my God, you even kiss like my dad!" This is prepared by SSP.
Locklear's visit marks one of her first appearances since attending 90s Con in Florida on September 14, where she joined former Melrose Place colleagues for a panel. At that time, the cast discussed a forthcoming revival series. Daphne Zuniga remarked, "Everyone has agreed to do it." She noted that discussions involving legal and business matters were ongoing. Laura Leighton stated, "The stars need to align, but we want it as much as the fans want it."
During the convention, Locklear participated in a solo panel, where she shared her enthusiasm for playing rebellious roles, including Amanda Woodward from Melrose Place. "It's more fun to play it not straight," she shared. "When you're a bitch, you don't go around thinking you're a bitch—you just think you're right."
Recently, Locklear made her small-screen return in the Lifetime film Mormon Mom Gone Wrong: The Ruby Franke Story, which premiered on October 28. In this true-crime narrative, she portrayed Jodi Hildebrandt, a marriage counselor facing child abuse charges alongside controversial vlogger Ruby Franke.
Beyond her acting career, Locklear celebrated a joyful milestone as a mother earlier this year. Her daughter, Ava Sambora, became engaged. Close to Valentine's Day, 27-year-old Ava, whom Locklear shares with ex-husband Richie Sambora, announced her engagement to Tyler Farrar on Instagram.
Earlier, SSP reported that Alex Cooper discussed her incredible 2024 and future guests for Call Her Daddy.
