HEATHER'S MELTDOWN

IS IT A CASE OF THE ACTRESS HAVING A BAD DAY OR IS SOMETHING MORE SERIOUS GOING ON?

- Kylie Walters

Since her breakout role on Dynasty in 1981 launched her to stardom, Heather Locklear’s life has been filled with some very public dizzying highs and devastating lows. But has the woman who earned a reputation as being a lifesaver when it comes to turning around struggling TV shows found the only thing she can’t rescue is herself?

Fears for the wellbeing of the 61-year-old star were sparked after Locklear was spotted looking distraught and dishevelled following an appointment in Malibu on June 29. The Melrose Place actress also walked around the high ledge of the building before taking a seat to write in a notebook while muttering to herself.

Witnesses claim that while she did this, her fiancé, Chris Heisser, waited patiently across the road in his car for an hour. Eventually, Locklear sprinted across the road to join him before they drove off.

The mum-of-one has been open about her battle with drugs and alcohol in the past. However, Locklear had hoped her troubles were well and truly behind her in 2020 when she publicly celebrated her sobriety. “Hugs will come later. One year sober today,” she posted on April 21 of that year.
