Actress Heather Locklear recent slew of disturbing reports about her health and recent arrests is in stark contrast to the reputation of TV icon she held in the '90s. Prompting many of her fans to wonder what exactly happened over the years to lead her to this current situation?
Heather Locklear is starting off 2019 as a single woman as she tries out a new approach to her ongoing rehab, according to reports.
