Gossip & Rumors
Denise and Richie -- NOT Engaged

Denise and Richie are not engagedAs reports swirl that Denise Richards and Richie Sambora are engaged, TMZ has the real deal-- it just ain't true.

Richards, who filed for divorce from estranged hubby Charlie Sheen in March, and rocker boyfriend Sambora, who is divorcing Denise's BFF Heather Locklear, have NO wedding plans.
Richards' attorney Neal Hersh tells TMZ "There is no truth to any rumors that Denise and Richie are engaged. They are not."

TMZ's cameras were at Fashion Rocks on Thursday night when the two showed up hand in hand.

The power couple, who have have been dating for months, have been spotted together many times by paparazzi but this is this first time the duo has attended a public event as a couple.

61. I don't know what the real story is, but heather was with Spade pretty quick, and Im not sure what kind of a relationship they had, I did see pics of them playing touchy feely, and they were suppose to have gone on vacation together..theres probably a lot of things the public doesn't know..I don't think Denise broke up Heather and Richies marriage, but she was definitly a back stabber to her former friend...

62. When it comes right down to it, you know we're not getting the whole story here. We'll never get the whole truth. Heather was supposedly cheating on Richie for quite a while with her little scumbag David Spade, so why can't he move on, why is Denise and Richie the bad guys here? If they're in love then so be it, why deny your feelings and be miserable? Life is too short to be miserable Heather is the lowlife in my opinion!

64. I am so sick of her screaming about how poor of a father Charlie Sheen is when she can't even find the word "morals" in the dictionary....We are talking about the woman who took her "show" to Vegas and stripped with the Pussy Cat Dolls...."Yeah, she is one fine upstanding, concerned parent!"

66. #61, your right we may not have the whole truth, cause no one is perfect.

BUT I dont care what Heather was doing to Ritchie, the bitch of Denise didnt have to go and take her man.

Why, would you complaint about your ex husband cheating and the girls hes with, if your the same type of whore as the girls hes cheating on you with.

She has no morals as a person or as a mom, and you dont do that to a friend, theirs alot of guys you can be happy with that arent married, especially with your friends.

67. I normally wouldn't even read anything about these two, but it must be a slow day for TMZ, there isn't much else here to read. Since I'm here I'll comment. Other than being Charlie Sheen's ex, why is this nasty looking ho famous?

69. Blazeon, post #45 has it right. It's human nature. Humans are not bioligically wired to be w/one partner. Religion and society are the ones who put those restrictions on relationships. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, for who am I to judge. But, I have to laugh at the majority of these oh so holier than thou, indignant posts. No one, and I mean no one, really knows what goes on behind someone's door. Things may look oh so rosey and nice and they could really be mean and miserable. Sure, I think that Denise & Richie should have cooled their heals for a few months before going public, but that would have probably just made it worse, at the least no better. Besides, when you live in the spotlight, your life is not private. This type of thing happens every day to every day people. The difference is that the press is not there to broadcast it to the whole world. Unless you are the "perfect person", live and let live. After all, it doesn't even affect you personally.

74. Sambora and Richards a "Power couple?" Get real. The power in the Sambora--Locklear union was Locklear. The power in the Sheen-Richards union was Sheen. Without those two you have nothing. Nada.

75. Before Denise set her sights on Richie, Heather's marriage was DOOMED. her priorities changed. She was always putting her friends 1st. She was partying all the time and her drug use had escalated. She verbally abused Richie and at times even slapped him. Her constant put downs and her ' ALL ABOUT ME " attitude was taking a toll. She had become HIGH MAINTENANCE and very hard to please.

Richie's female assistant ( the one that sent the naked pictures to him ) was slowly easing into Heather's absentee role of wife and mother. By the time that assistant was fired, the damage had been done. At that point they both pretty much knew it was over. Richie also had a girlfriend in Jersy he was seeing during this time.

The fact that the marriage was over, isn't the point. DENISE WAS HER FRIEND. YOU DON'T GO THERE. She minipulated Heather into filing for the divorse. WHO KNOWS, maybe with some counciling they could have savaged the marriage. Now they will never know. THIS GIRL IS BAD NEWS. I doubt she has a real girlfriend. I certainly wouldn't want any part of her.

For post # 54 Livewire : Very funny, but very true. Keeping it REAL , as always.lol
