Heather Locklear (Heather Locklear)

- Dad, I'm getting married. We decided ...
- Marry? - Interrupted the daughter of Mr. Locklear.
There was a pause - just heard the faint hum of a telephone line.
If this news and alerted Bill Locklear, the more likely simply surprise. Mark Harmon, the gentleman's daughter, seemed to him a good young man. They met several times when Heather brought him to dinner. While Mark and was one of "those" in the words of Mr. Locklear (made a successful career on television), he made a favorable impression - seemed to be the clever guy who knows what he wants out of life. Just such a party for her daughter and wanted Bill. It has been several years since, as Heather has become a celebrity, but he still feared that this brilliant fake little world of show business ruin and corrupt his daughter. How wild, horrible stories of "those" printed tabloids! Mr. Locklear, of course, never read such nonsense, but quite rightly felt that smoke without fire. However, it seems, his fears were not confirmed.
- Dad, can you hear me?
- Well, what - he said thoughtfully. - Your Mark I always liked. In general, you probably correctly decided ...
Heather just opened his mouth in amazement. I suddenly remembered that my father does not know anything - she forgot to tell his father that no longer meets the Harmon. However, to say "forget" it would not quite honest. Just not had the courage. Similarly, Heather "forgot" to tell him about Tommy Lee and a tattoo - to delay unpleasant conversation, because I knew: my father all this is very not like it.
Heather Locklear has always been my father's daughter. When in their home in California came to visit and someone, . lisp with baby, . asked this stupid eternal question: "What, . Heather, . you have already chosen a zhenihaN ", . girl briskly replied: "I'll grow up and marry Daddy!" I sincerely puzzled, . why do these words evoke a burst of laughter from adults and delight.,
. William Locklear, a retired naval officer, believed that in the upbringing of children must be firm
. Most importantly, he believed that children are well taught, believed in God and loved their country, the rest - nonsense. Not surprisingly, little Heather in childhood dreams of becoming a helicopter pilot, but certainly not an actress. Every Sunday the family Locklear, living in a small town Vestleyke, attended a local church. Sermons priest and father's instruction, formed the basis of firm conviction Heather: be a good means to do so, as advised parents, and never disappoint.
At school she was a nobody. The boys simply refused to notice her existence - it is no surprise, given the blatant leanness Heather, the number of pimples on her face and ugly brace to correct the teeth that the girl had to wear. From their appearance defects Heather struggled as best she could. But damn acne was, it seems, do not care lotions flows, which she stubbornly rubbed every morning. Similarly, matters stood with sharp blades and collarbones - despite the futile attempts to hide them under the very thick sweaters, they are still deadly bulging outward.
. Once Heather, the courage, decided to run for the post cheerleader high school football team
. I wish she did not do it: a hefty moose-players so rude and tactless commented on its negative first dimension "that poor girl a week could not recover from the insult. Pope advised Heather to spit on these mindless idiots and do something else - sign up in the chorus, for example, or in the school dramatic circle. Father, Heather, as always, listened to, but easier it has not become. Complexes of the girl became more and more. Chest, by contrast, betrayed not want to grow.
Heather became a closed, almost no one was friends at school and never struck up a conversation first. "It was easier to get" a couple "than to go out and respond to the class learned by rote monologue" - so she says "light" times its weedy pimply youth.
. After graduating from high school, Heather enrolled in a college psychology major (Mr. Locklear believed the profession of psychologist and the reliable prestige and is unlikely in this wrong)
. During the first semester of study Heather learned many interesting things about the nature of human systems - including their own. Fortunately, knowledge of these it is not useful - by the time nature, apparently, and very tired mockery of the poor ugly duckling. Young Miss Locklear was changing right before our eyes - like a nasty pimples disappeared, Heather added a little weight and its shape became markedly rounded. Moreover, she finally broke up with the hated bracket and now unabashedly gifts to the surrounding charming smile, which a few years will cause tenderness at the fans, "Dynasty."
. Inspired by newfound beauty, Heather plucked up courage and went to a model school, where her self-esteem immediately got another slap in the face: it was found that with the growth 1b5 walks the catwalk she ordered
. Mr. Locklear, as always, was nearby - Heather again needed his help. Amendment own conservatism, Mr. Locklear's daughter offered to try yourself as a model for a magazine published by a local university. (Incidentally, he worked there in the entrance examination and had no doubt that her daughter will be left unattended.) Heather wiped her tears, nodded happily - and went to the shooting.
. Mr. Locklear was worried needlessly - the personal life of his daughter in those days was a very chaste
. First, she never forgot the covenants of the parents and not do anything that could even hypothetically they upset. Secondly, the temptations, to be honest, it was not so much - even though the metamorphosis from the exterior, the stronger sex has continued to ignore the future star. "I have long had such a baby face that guys, in my opinion, were simply afraid to come to me" - recalls Heather.
. This situation has changed radically as soon as Heather has appeared in Hollywood (one of the agents saw her promotional photos, the girl offered the role in a TV series)
. Naturally, wishing ohmurit a pretty a young debutante on the set proved to be plenty. Another thing, . that the most Heather at the time was simply not up to it - she was so afraid of not coping, . that day in the dressing room protorchala, . bison text of his role: "Tell them, . that they stop! Please, . Let them stop! "The diligence and hard work have made his case - saying this complex monologue, . Heather is not never faltered, . and her film debut was "Hurray".,

. She never ventured to speak to his father
. Only then, has already received several proposals withdrawn, Heather had the courage and ... asked my mother to tell him that she decided to quit college for an acting career. Bill came to a terrible outrage - Hollywood was the last place where Mr. Locklear would like to see his girl. However, he was unable to change anything. "Try to at least do not communicate with those with whom removed - the father sighed, seeing his daughter in this world of hypocrisy and wickedness. - It is very dangerous ... indecent.

Heather, of course, promised ... She really believed - so, anyway, it taught the parents, Heather and they used to believe in everything - that love really can be only one time in my life. In 1981, fate made her a generous gift - Heather won the role of Sammy Jo in the TV series "Dynasty". Critics called it "opening 80" girl's bank account grew rapidly, and the ideal man somehow is not declared. From fans, however, was not lights out, but striking up an affair with another handsome, Heather could not stop myself pull up: "He's just a pretty nice guy, no more. Do not get carried away - around you twenty more of the same. "


Mark Harmon was not the first man, with whom Heather had serious relationships. Before him, it some time met with actor Scott Beyo and almost married him. To be honest, Heather does not really want to marry. But Scott's upbringing was even more radical than that of Heather - at least in matters of religion. A few months after they met, he said that they can not continue to live neobvenchannymi - such a sinful relationship is unlikely to enjoy Jesus. While Heather puzzling how to do it, appeared on the scene the father of Scott and said that marriage with the actress' son ruin his career ". What was meant, no one understood, but Scott hung his head dejectedly (he also used throughout to obey the pope), Heather sighed with relief - and they broke up peacefully.

. And here is Mark Harmon's career issues did not care the least - he's already been a sex symbol, the star of "big" TV series
. Love never parted for a moment. Heather even the make parents, and that - a miracle! - Its accuracy and rationality was able to win the sympathy of such harsh criticism, as Mr. Locklear. A few months later Heather ran away from him: "Mark repeated every minute about what I'm wonderful and how much he loves me. At the end of all this, I just was not myself. "

"Please, not me" - this phrase that has become almost a ritual, Mr. Locklear repeated each time when he met with daughter. Heather tried. Even on the hottest days she came to visit his parents in tight black tights: Heather could easily imagine the reaction of his father, finding he had that ankle of his dearest girl now adorns a frivolous tattoo ...

. For several months she lived as if in different worlds
. Day - brilliant telediva, surrounded by renowned partners in the "Dynasty", omnipotent power producers and agents, at night - girl in torn jeans from some crazy rock 'n' roll hangouts. About Tommy Lee, drummer known "metal" team "Motley Crew", Heather did not tell anyone - neither the family nor the shooting.


They accidentally met at some party. "I saw the most beautiful heifer from everyone who ever met - Tommy shared his impressions of that evening. - And she was squeezed into the very narrow and short mini-skirt from all that I have ever seen ". A friend introduced the young TV star Tommy. Heather, little knowledge of "metal" uniforms, first decided that her acquainted with some fagot - a Tommy was a long shaggy hair, and "war paint" made him look like a shaman of the tribe Cheyenne. "Hello!" - "Lee said, shaking the handle Heather. - It is pleasant to you squeezed "After ten-minute conversation doubt Heather completely disappeared: Tommy was cool guy
He interrupted phone her manager, asking for a meeting. Heather did not answer - or rather, barely able to restrain themselves so as not to call back ..
Tommy did not look at either of her past suitors. The wild rock-n-rollytsik with a dubious past and a scandalous reputation - if Mr. Locklear learned that for her daughter this is the "perfect man", it immediately would be enough to blow.


... For ten minutes, Tommy impatiently signaled the bottom. Heather once again looked at herself in the mirror, thinking and sharp movement disheveled hair neatly arranged. It was the evening of their first meeting. "Yesterday I called my mother and said that I had a new girl - told her the next morning, Tommy. - As the water looking ... "Soon, he made himself another tattoo on his forearm - a black rose, which was crossed by the name" Heather ". Tommy phoned her from the tour: "Do you hear that buzz? "What is it?" - Did not understand it. "This is a tattoo machine, I missed you, but now you will always be near!" A few days later Heather also did a tattoo, that's only to show her parents did not dare. As well as tell them about Tommy.

In 1985, two of the world finally met Heather at a great reception - Miss Locklear still presented her beloved film team "Dynasty". "I do not think that all these chinnye ladies and gentlemen, glad to see me - then cheerfully recalled Tommy Lee. - We arrived in a luxury limousine. Imagine, out of the car of their incomparable Heather, another second - and the next I appear,. Producer Aaron Spelling told me that when Heather introduced him to Tommy, he was beside himself with rage: what should be a fool to all guys from California to choose this shaggy razdolbaya!

. In Hollywood, the talk was that this strange couple of
. Nobody understood. Heather explained vaguely familiar, that under the shell "bad guy" Tommy is hiding in "remarkably good man with a terrific sense of humor". Familiar doubts. Achieve something from it have been impossible: "I myself do not understand. Heather - sex symbol of millions of viewers, I - the usual rock 'n' roll kid. And she loves me! Yes, it is simply "To get you can!"

At Christmas he proposed to her. They raced along the highway, and suddenly Tommy, standing on the seat, waist and leaned out of the hatch, holding the steering wheel with his foot, screamed: "Come here!" She got behind him, and it is up there, he put on her finger a diamond ring. At this point, Heather thought about what we need to still call her father ...

... In response to her confused explanation that it was not Mark, that Tommy's a great guy and they all have already decided, again followed by a long pause. Then Mr. Locklear said dully: "I'm coming to you. This ... Your Tommy ... Well now tamN excellent.


Tommy was sunbathing by the pool. Hearing that his future father in law was going to visit them, he was terribly flustered: rushed into the house, began frantically pulling the earrings from the nose and ears. Then he popped into the bathroom, where several minutes of unsuccessfully trying to somehow smooth out sticking in all directions Patli. "Where are the devil take her, has got my shirt with long rukavamiN!" - Yelled Tommy, rummaging in the wardrobe. Heather watched as her fiance, like a wounded antelope, rushing around the house, and could hardly restrain himself from laughing. She suddenly remembered a few days ago, after the morning run panting Tommy said: "You know, if my fans will see how I'm here with you running around in this retarded suit - all of Khan's career ..."

Mr. Locklear, arrived half an hour. Tommy was sitting in the dining room - straight as a stick, with a view chinnym sipping orange juice. Despite tridtsatigradusnuyu heat, he was dressed in a suit, buttoned up. To "body art" is not climbing out from under the collar, the sufferer had to retract his head desperately shoulders. In general, the future wife's father Tommy Lee made an ambiguous impression. "Strange it is you have some! - Growled Mr. Locklear said goodbye to Heather. - In general, see herself ... "
Their wedding was some odd mix of luxury champagne and frantic music "Motley Crew". 24-year-old Heather told reporters that a child was sure that would marry only once, and Tommy - this is just what she needed. Lee was absolutely agree with this: "You'll see when we will celebrate on 90, we will remain the same as now: I - rocker, it - perfect glamorous lady". Heather was so sure of his feelings, that would not even sign a marriage contract. Newspapers nevertheless wrote that this marriage will not survive long.


Home newlyweds looked very exotic - it was a recording studio for Tommy and a gym for Heather. In one corner of the room was attached home solarium, another flashed a huge drum kit. Tommy took her to rock 'n' roll parties, Heather got used to the strong cocktails and a fun night. Tommy insisted, . that she had her breast augmentation surgery: "You are so stunning and, . and with a large bust of going to class at all! "During the operation was entered infection, . Heather tortured pain, . Doctors stabbed her strong antibiotics, . but then everything healed, . Tommy and delight knew no bounds.,

. "Not me" - with anguish repeated Mr. Locklear's daughter, when they met
. Heather Pope smack on the cheek - and raced to another party. "I always knew that my wife - a born rock 'n rollytsitsa" - once shared with the press his joy Tommy Lee.

But it was not so. So far, so it became harder for Heather to pretend that her life - a happy and cloudless. The point here was, of course, not in rock 'n' roll.

Tommy almost never "got dry". Previously, Heather was not paying attention to it, and now binges Tommy irritated her more and more. Also found - in their spree Lee can be ... different. Her friends repeatedly tried to clarify with Heather nature of bruises and abrasions, which occasionally appeared on her body. Heather laughed it off, or did not talk, but soon began to flicker in the tabloid reports that de "drummer" Motley Crew "Tommy Lee would often give a rest his drum set, training hands on his wife."

. In addition, to Heather often heard rumors that since the marriage of Tommy's tour, his sexual escapades become neither less frequent or less vehement
. Tabloids talked about how one day Heather herself "spotted" her husband on the other, but soon forgiven, believing prayers and vows that henceforth it will not be repeated. Heather tried to change something, recorded Tommy courses Alcoholics Anonymous, but it did not last long exposure. Once "well-wisher," said Heather, on the eve of her husband spent the evening in the bathroom in the society of several female fans. Heather called her husband and asked whether it was true - he did not deny anything. Held for several years, "marriage for life" after all collapsed.
"No, I do not feel any broken or wasted - Heather confessed to journalists after a divorce. - But be that as it may, still hurts when you break the heart. However, it was not entirely lost years, - she added - I learned a lot. "
While Heather was going through a divorce, Richie Sambora, bass guitarist of Bon Jovi's, "went for it as a tail, however, he had been indifferent to Locklear. "Why did you not brosishN - Sambora surprised when Heather complained to him of the futility of attempts to remake Tommy. - These guys, like Lee, will never change ". Sambora was a good friend. He knew how to listen and, from the standpoint of Heather, had only two drawbacks - an ugly mouth and bad taste (all in Hollywood knew that Richie meets with Cher). Unlike Tommy, Richie not conquered Heather at a glance. To Miss Locklear discerned in him the long-awaited "ideal man", Richie had to work hard.

He called her almost every night: "Just so - to find out whether all you have in order". A few months, . When Heather was already considering, . not show whether the initiative itself, . Richie suddenly timidly asked: can, . she agrees with him one morning pouzhinatN, . When Heather gave phone interviews to radio journalist and once again began to elicit her, . true, . it meets with Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi ", . Heather could not stand it: "You know what?, . ask him yourself "- and gave up sleepy Richie.,
. Once Sambora talking about getting married, but Heather did not want to hear
. She said - maybe a little bluff - that have not yet departed from the past divorce, and not yet ready to start all over again. Richie anxiously nodded and hurried to change the subject. But since then regularly once a fortnight, he invariably asked: "Well, not yet gotovaN" - and Heather thought it was very nice and touching. Ritchie gave her a magnificent diamond suite from Cartier, and the next day couple appeared together on the presentation of awards "Emmy". Friends of Richie told that had never seen such a happy Sambor.

Friends (and, of course, parents) Heather was seriously scared - it seems their favorite again going to do something silly, or contacting rocker. Heather assured them that they have nothing to worry: "I'm not going to attack twice on the same rake. If I find out that Richie's deceiving me, then leave him immediately. "

Between lovers a kind of pact was signed. Sambora Heather promised absolute fidelity. In addition, he vowed that he would not communicate with Cher even on the phone - at this point the contract insisted that Miss Locklear especially. She, in turn, assured him that from now on will not be removed in the sex scenes.
. Heather pleased to note - Sambora is changing right before our eyes: now he preferred to alcohol orange juice, forgot about all the hangouts, and even - a real shame for the rocker! - Has to wear seatbelts
. "I'm head over heels in love with Heather - has joyfully told journalists Richie. - It is classroom girl! "" I'm in my childhood dream to marry her father - smiling Heather. - And Richie awfully like him - he is the same reliable, kind and loving ". About ugly mouth, it seems, no one even remembers.
They were married Dec. 15, 1994. And two days later flew to Paris and got married there again - Heather has always dreamed of a wedding in the city of lovers. Guests at the Paris wedding was a lot - each of them a week earlier, got a nice gift basket in which lay an invitation ticket to Paris and a bottle of luxury champagne. This time, Bill Locklear Heather was pleased with the choice and do not even hide it. "Only you know what, - he whispered to her daughter on the eve of the wedding - you would still signed the marriage contract ..."
As always, my father listened to Heather. And the contract signed - just in case ...
