It looks like there may be more to the phony 911 call to actress Heather Locklear’s home than originally believed. At first, it was reported that the 911 call was a mistake, but since the 911 tape has been released, sources say that the individual who called was actually Locklear’s psychiatrist, who received a late night phone call from her in which she revealed that she “felt like killing [her]self.”
An audio tape of a man, reported to be Heather Locklear’s psychiatrist, requesting emergency assistance at the actress’ house has been publicly released. “I have a patient and I have a feeling she’s suicidal. And I would want someone to go [check on her],” says the caller whose name was apparently redacted before the tape was released to the public.
The 911 call came in on Saturday, March 8. Authorities said they found no problems when they responded to the call and Locklear’s rep said the actress was “fine.”
But The ENQUIRER can exclusively reveal that Locklear has had a years-long battle with booze, drugs and depression, she has detoxed in private, lived with sober companions and secretly been hospitalized for her problems, according to a source.
“Heather was on the phone with her psychiatrist when he became alarmed because she was upset and seemed intoxicated,” a close pal told The ENQUIRER. “At one point Heather said: ‘I’m just so sad and bummed out, I feel like killing myself right now!’
“Her doctor did not take it as an idle threat.”

As usual, any story in the Enquirer is suspect by nature. I certainly hope that if Heather is battling substance abuse and depression, she gets treatment. She’s been around forever and seems to be very well liked in Hollywood. It should be noted that her ex, Richie Sambora, has a longstanding alcohol problem and was just in rehab at Cirque in Utah. This may not mean anything, but considering how long Richie and Heather were married, perhaps they were both enabling each other all those years.
Whatever the truth is, Heather has every right to keep her situation to herself. There’s still not a definitive confirmation that the man in the 911 tapes really is her doctor, or that Locklear is even seeing a psychiatrist. I just hope she’s okay.
