Heather Locklear life and biography

Heather Locklear is an American actress best known for her television roles as Sammy Jo Carrington on Dynasty, Officer Stacy Sheridan on T.J. Hooker, Amanda Woodward on Melrose Place, and Caitlin Moore on Spin City.

Locklear was born in Westwood, Los Angeles, California, the daughter of William Robert Locklear and Diane (née Tinsley). She was raised in Thousand Oaks, California and graduated from Newbury Park High School. Locklear is the youngest of four children. She is also of part Lumbee (Native American) descent.

Classic California blonde Heather Locklear became TV royalty with concurrent roles in the classic '80s primetime soap Dynasty and the cop show T.J. Hooker.

But Locklear cemented her fame on FOX's Melrose Place as calculating Amanda Woodward, and followed up with a similarly possessed turn as Michael J. Fox's (and then Charlie Sheen's) fellow politico on the sitcom Spin City.

Her rock-star oriented love life has long obsessed tabloid readers with failed marriages to Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee and Bon Jovi lead guitarist Richie Sambora. In June 2008, the golden TV goddess sought treatment for anxiety and depression before having multiple run-ins with the law.

On the mend, Locklear found love again with Melrose Place costar Jack Wagner, who she plans to marry.
