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.

78. Remember Liz Taylor and Richard Burton eons ago. Same story different era.
He was married. She was married. They got hot on the set of Cleopatra. This was after she stole Eddie Fisher from his then wife Debbie Reynolds. Hollywood never changes. Second verse same as the first.

79. Can someone hold my hair back while I barf please? Seems Richards always is holding her hair back for a papparrazi photo so they can get a click of that pissy mug of hers when she is macking on Sambora. Aren't her 15 minutes up yet? As for Locklear, Wayne from "Wayne's World" said it best -- "there is a God and Heather be thy name." We love you Heather baby. Yum to you.

80. The fact that Denise Richards can get a break and get away from her kids is healthy for her as well as for them. Kids can "get through" most anything if they are loved and being cared for, which they are. I think the fact that everything everyone in Hollywood does is grossly over-publicized leaves them all little room for living a sane life. Charlie Sheen and the rest of the Sheens are creeps to the max if you ask me...have thought so for many years. Richie Sambora wanted to keep his marriage but his wife walked away from it, and by the way didn't even have to decency to tell him herself. If he and Denise had been friends and neighbors for years and now want to seek a relationship, more power to them.
Whoever said Denise is a sleezy scumbag is probably one herself...the pot always tries to call the kettle black.

81. When was the last time you "star bashers" had lunch with those celebrities. It seems so odd that they would tell all of you their business. WHAT? you really don't know them?! You coulda fooled me, the way you ran your mouth off.

85. Denise "has" to chase Richie down on tour (or he'll probably take off with some groupie). LOL! She's no better - leaving her kids to run around. Nice... Back-stabbing tart!

86. I think Denise Richards is fake and she is just after the money and using poor Richie. And I dont think they are engaged, she probably got that ring from a lolly machine cause it looks fake to me.

87. Denise Richards is a scum-bag. One does not ever date or sleep with a friend's ex....ever. To air ones dirty laundry in public is also classless. Charlie wasn't so bad....she married him and must have loved him once. You do not trash your childrens father in a public forum. She is the one guilty of a form of child abuse to her own children by doing this. Look at her choices.They are not the choices of one who has class and one who is in control. If you want a divorce get one...don't do everything you can to destroy you children's father. She is a selfish nasty whore in my opinion.

88. Denise "has" to chase Richie down to stop him from getting together with hords of groupies. LOL! Well she's no better - leaving her kids to run around. Can't say I feel sorry for her, or feel she is deserving of a good relationship. After back-stabbing her best friend (and that's exactly what it was). You don't go after a friends husband/exhusband. It's just trashy.

89. Denise "has" to chase Richie all over the globe - she's scared of all those groupies getting together with him. LOL! She's no better than they are though. Back-stabbing a friend to get to her husband/exhusband (whatever -it's no better). She should focus on being a good mother, and that doesn't mean leaving your kids. What a trash bag!

90. Your comments: Since I've been a BJovi fan for over a decade, I've been watching
Heather & Richie from sidelines. For the past 1-2yrs, she's treated
Richie like crap. Richie always had the best to say about Heather &
only once did I hear her say something nice. She always commented on
herself & career; even when she was on Oprah after she had baby, you
could see that she had difficulty bonding w/baby (since she's so
self-centered); she made comments that no one told her that it would
be so hard to be a mom, complained non-stop (but tb fair, as Ava got
older, Heather became warmer towards her). Then no more kids from
her, you'd think she'd have another for Ava's sake, but it's all
about Heather & her career. Richie was SO good to her, spoiled her &
even BJovi people said that they were sick of her cuz Richie had to
kiss her ass all the time. It seems that when he started this last
tour in U.S., she no longer had control of him cuz he wouldn't quit
BJovi & he was spending a lot of time in NJersey (when recording the
new music). She had reports fed to the tabloids that she was
partying & even mentioned Tommy Lee, in the hopes of getting a rise
out of Richie, but this time, it didn't work. Then she came out
w/magazine article, kinda knocking Richie. And then the worst,
humiliates him in front of America! He gets notice of divorce while
on air doing an interview. I think she carried it too far & then
lost him. Denise....what did she tell Richie??? Probably all the
smack that Heather was saying 'n doing. I think something was
revealed that even hurt him more deeply; so he's now returning the
favor w/Denise, except that it got "special" w/Denise & he doesn't
give a damn what others think. And I luv it (becuz I had seen how
badly Heather had been treating him) & I now have my respect back for
him. Heather is never going to find another man like Richie who
loved her, spoiled her, who would do anything to keep her happy &,
really, he's a super-nice guy. Heather was all about control, I
could see the transformation, she got ugly & now she's alone.
Richie & Denise in Paris (where he married Heather....), I hope they
make it. (And for comments that Denise is leaving her kids; geez,
give her a break (she's a great mommy & the only parent that has been
a constant for those kids) & it's alright to leave your kids, she
always comes back to them w/lotsa love.)
