Gossip & Rumors
Is Denise Richards Really Engaged?

Denise Richards arrived at LAX yesterday sporting a ring on her left ring finger, leaving everyone wondering if she and her boyfriend, Richie Sambora, are engaged.

Richards, who is in the middle of a bitter divorce from Charlie Sheen, flew in from France after spending time with Sambora while he's on tour with Bon Jovi. Sambora is also in the middle of divorce from Heather Locklear - Richards' former best friend.


Don't get too excited, however, sources tell TMZ she is not engaged. But this could possibly be a foreshadowing of what's to come once all the divorces are finalized.... only time will tell.

Richards flew back to the States to perform with the Pussycat Dolls in Vegas tonight.

Denise's rep declined comment.

3. Denise Richard's is such an opportunist & a sleazy whore. Granted Charlie is no angel, but clawing into his pension as part of the divorce settlement?!! I hope she loses custody and spousal support. It's undeserved. Anyone who leaves their young children for days at a time to sneak off with a lover is disgraceful. Also being that the lover is the husband of her former best friend is truly despicable. To put it bluntly, Denise is a scumbag !

5. Oh please..Leave the girl alone. She is in Love after a bad marriage to an idiot who prefers porn. Heather screwed up too..and she filed for divorce. The kids are fine and with the Grandparents. Now she has to go to work and make money...so stop your holier than thou attitudes...

6. Id like to say a few words to the rude person who made a comment about "Denise Richards being an opportunist & a sleazy whore". Look here you jealous snake in the grass. You have no right putting someone else down that you dont even know. Im sure if you had the opportunity to go on a trip with the hottest guy in the Bon Jovi band, and leave your kids for a few days, you would probably jump in a minute, but, since it wasnt you that had that chance, you feel the need to down grade someone else. Denise Richards is a beautiful girl who deserves to be with a really nice guy like Richie Sambora. Oh, and about the other stupid comment "the lover is the husband of her former best friend is truly despicable". Well,guess what, friends can come and go at anytime for any reason. Maybe, Denise went with her feelings, and followed her heart, and thats where her heart is, with Richie, so get over it, and move on, and leave Denise,& Richie alone! To put it bluntly......YOUR THE SCUMBAG!!!!!!!!!

9. Denise Richards should be ashamed of herself, she had the children not the grandparents, she said she is trying to get her girls through this crisis. I'm glad she is able to do that from France. So, what if Heather filed for divorce, who wouldn't if they found nude pictures of another woman on their husband's email. Richie is no saint him self.

10. I'm glad Ritchie and Denise have found each other. Both have put up with a lot from their exes. RIichie is a down to earth, really nice guy. He and Denise deserve to be happy together.

11. Richrds filed for divorce from Charlie Sheen in March 2005. They attempted a reconciliation after the birth of their second daughter in June, even spending the 2005 holidays together. They filed again for divorce in early 2006. If everything she said about him in the court papers is true, why would she have a second child with him? Why would she attempt to reconcile? And if she was REALLY such a good friend to Heather, what gave her the right to take away the possibility of a reconciliation between Heather and Sambora? Granted, they may have never wanted to reconcile, but she took that chance away for good. How does she know whether AVA, their daughter, would not have been able to convince them to try once more? Her babies are too young to offer an opinion, but Ava certainly isn't. Richards may not have done anything wrong LEGALLY, but she sure broke the laws of COMMON DECENCY and MORALITY. Who is immoral here? She's setting a GREAT example for her kids, who are .... (wink, wink)... "her first priority!"

12. She's just another famous homewrecking slut. Hope she's proud of herself, some "best friend" she turned out to be. I'd rather play with snakes than call her my friend.

13. Okay, so here's the scoop.... Denise moved on after Chuck screwed up. Then she totally betrayed Heather by rebouding with Richie. Happened forever ago, you are all just now finding out. Enjoy the trash sessions.

14. Like so many celebrities these days...."what"s the big deal?" Denines Richards looks haggard and worn....better looking women at any Bon Jovi concert, same with Ms. Locklear. Also, what's the big deal with Lohan??? I don't see it....not even cute. I LOVE Paris...the "Old" Paris...before she became sleezy, slutty and a boy chasing classless woman. So many celebrieties...so little class, sophistication, healthy good looks or lifestyle. Seems the media makes these people male and female, for, honest to god, bettter looking people in the local nightclub. Nick Lachey, Timberlake, Lohan, Richards, and on and on....no big deal! Where's the beef?

15. I think Denise is wrong, how can she do this to a friend, i sure know i would'nt want her as a friend. she a tramp. her poor kids, she should worry about them instead of whoring around after richie. Charlie should get custody of the little girls. Kelly
