Although she filed for divorce from Bon Jovi rocker Richie Sambora in 2006, Heather Locklear has only now gotten around to officially splitting up from his last name, reports TMZ.
Heather Deen Sambora filed a request in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Friday asking that her name be officially changed to what everyone calls her anyway: Heather Locklear. About time!
But why now? Is the actress saying good-bye to her ex-husband's name because she's ready to commit to her latest steady, former 'Melrose Place' costar Jack Wagner?
Late last week, according to People.com, Wagner serenaded her at a 49th birthday party he threw her in Beverly Hills (her birthday was Saturday).

The couple began their romance in 2007; Locklear is mom to 12-year-old Ava, her daughter with Sambora.
"All her friends sang to her," said a witness at the Korean restaurant where the actress was guest of honor. "Jack harmonized and then sang the 'and many more' part....Heather was laughing all night."
By the end of the week, Locklear had not only filed paperwork for her name change, but also announced her next acting role: a 2011 Lifetime movie, 'He Loves Me,' about a wife whose paranoia about her husband's fidelity leads to a mental meltdown. Scary stuff!
