Heather Locklear recently met with ex-hubby Richie Smabora and her former good friend Denise Richards, and they told her the news that they were dating, according to Life & Style Weekly.
But apparently the history goes back a little further, an insider told the magazine.
“Richards was the one who told Heather to file for divorce. Now it looks like she had an ulterior motive.” 

The Sheens and the Samboras were neighbors in Westlake Village, a ritzy area in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley. After both couples split, the hubbys moved out, but the wives stayed in the houses. The friendship, however, is well and truly over.
A "pal" told the magazine:
“Heather thinks Denise is the worst kind of woman — a backstabber. She wants nothing to do with her ever again.” 

Whoa - with friends like that who need enemies!! Richards isn't exactly coming out of this whole mess looking very good is she?
