Heather Locklear, renowned for her role as Sammy Jo Carrington in the TV show Dynasty, has evolved significantly since her days on the show. At 61, she remains stunning, but her appearance has notably changed, leading some fans to struggle with recognition.

Recently, Locklear was photographed with her fiancé, Chris Heisser, while they were shopping near her $4.8 million home in Agoura Hills, California. The actress appeared makeup-free and wore a “biting lips” skull logo t-shirt by Lauren Moshi, with a beaming smile, suggesting a pleasant time with her partner.

Locklear has faced well-documented challenges related to substance abuse and mental health but seems to be on a positive path towards better health and vitality.

In the past, concerns arose when she was seen talking to herself while Heisser waited in the car. Fans defended her, speculating that her behavior might have been a reaction to bad news received before the photos were taken.

Locklear and Heisser got engaged in April 2020, but Locklear has expressed that a formal wedding is not a priority for them, emphasizing their strong and supportive relationship.

Locklear is a mother to her daughter, Ava, from her second marriage to Richie Sambora, the lead guitarist of Bon Jovi. Prior to this, she was married to Tommy Lee, the drummer of Mötley Crüe, with whom she divorced in 1993.
