Jon Bon Jovi Clears the Air With Former Bandmate Richie Sambora: ‘Never Animosity’


Jon Bon Jovi cleared the air with former bandmate Richie Sambora after claiming they were 'not in contact.' Now, the singer and the guitarist are on good terms.

“He came over and watched three parts of the docuseries at my house,” Jon, 62, told People in an interview published on Tuesday, April 23. The guitarist cited personal issues and the desire to focus on raising his daughter, Ava Sambora, with Heather Locklear, as his reasons for leaving the group. “Doesn’t mean that there’s not love forever, but it’s 11 years ago that he just didn’t show up anymore,” the Grammy winner told Ultimate Classic Rock on March 14.
