Lorenzo Lamas Calls New Girlfriend Heather Locklear the ‘Most Amazing Woman That I Think I've Ever Met'

Lorenzo Lamas is gushing with praise for his new girlfriend, Heather Locklear.

Lamas, 68, who got his start on Falcon Crest, is widely known for his role as a cop framed for murder on the popular TV series Renegade. Locklear, 64, rose to fame as Sammie Jo Carrington on Dynasty and the wild Amanda Woodward on Melrose Place. The dynamic duo, who confirmed they were dating back in April, made their first public appearance as a couple this weekend at the Chiller Theatre Expo in New Jersey. Now, Lamas is speaking out about his new lady love.

When asked if he ever imagined his relationship with Locklear would come full circle four decades after they first met, Lamas said he never predicted this.

"The short answer is no," Lamas told Fox News Digital. "I mean, I've been through a lot of trial and error, and she is the most amazing woman that I think I've ever met."

The couple first met back in 1983 during their TV days while shooting the cover of Playgirl magazine.

"I cannot believe that this was 43 years ago! Side note, speedos on request only," Lamas tweeted back in December.

What Has Locklear Said About Finding Love Again?

Back in December, Locklear spoke candidly about her hopes to find love again in the near future.

Asked about her holiday wish for the season, Locklear shared a touching message that included wishes for health and happiness for her mother, daughter, and friends. But she also spoke about her optimistic perspective on finding love again after her two divorces.

"I pray about my family every night, and my mom especially, and my daughter being happy, and especially my dog staying alive," Locklear shared. "But honestly, what I want is for God to direct me towards who I'm supposed to be with, because I can't always make good decisions, and, um, that's my immediate one."
