Heather Locklear Gushes Over Relationship With Boyfriend Lorenzo Lamas for the First Time

Heather Locklear can't help but gush over boyfriend Lorenzo Lamas!

The 64-year-old Melrose Place actress opened up for the first time about her relationship with the Falcon Crest actor, 68, during an appearance on the latest episode of the Hollywood & Divine podcast, calling him her "new boyfriend."

"My new guy is very … everything," Locklear said in the episode published on Tuesday, June 2. "I'm just like, when I tell this person I love him, I'm really saying, 'I love you, God.' Because that's what happened. It's from God."

"I'm [in] the best time [of my life]," she added.

Locklear and Lamas were first romantically linked in late 2025 and made their first public appearance as a couple at the Chiller Theatre Expo in April. The two stars have since been spotted together numerous times, attending the wedding of Locklear's daughter, Ava Sambora, last month and celebrating the graduations of Lamas' grandchildren earlier this week.

Locklear and Lamas' romance may still be in its early days, but the couple has history dating back more than four decades. The pair first met while posing for a 1983 Playgirl cover together as Locklear was at the height of her Dynasty fame and Lamas was best known for his role as Lance Cumson on Falcon Crest.

Lamas has spoken out about his romance with Locklear in the past, telling Fox News Digital in April that it was years of "trial and error" that ultimately led him to his relationship with the Money Talks star.

"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," he told the outlet at the time.

Locklear was previously married to Tommy Lee from 1986 to 1993 before tying the knot with Richie Sambora in 1994. After welcoming daughter Ava together, the pair split in 2004. In May 2025, Locklear ended a five-year relationship with fiancé Chris Heisser. Lamas, who has been married six times and is father to six children, filed for divorce from wife Kenna Scott in July 2025.
