The Tragic Real-Life Story Of Heather Locklear

In between those arrests — both occurring in June 2018 — Heather Locklear was once again hospitalized — this time, reported TMZ, after a family member called 911, claiming Locklear had threatened to shoot herself. Unlike the false alarm a decade earlier, this time Locklear appeared to be serious — serious enough to be taken to a hospital for an involuntary psychological evaluation. More details emerged, alleging that Locklear had become so agitated during the day that her parents rushed over — only to be attacked, with Locklear reportedly striking her father and choking her mother, who was reported to be the family member who made that 911 call. 

Locklear was clearly spiraling out of control, given that her second arrest that month came days after her psychological examination. Even more concerning: Hours after she was released on bail, for allegedly battering a cop and an EMT, emergency personnel were once again called to her home. This time, reported TMZ, they were responding to a call claiming that someone had overdosed. She was later reported to be in stable condition, and subsequently released.

“She really needs a proper evaluation, different medication, and clearly more help than she has been getting to truly determine what her mental health issues are,” a worried source told People. “Right now, it’s heartbreaking for her friends and family, they are really worried, but unfortunately, their hands are tied with what that can do. Everyone just wants Heather back.”
