Heather Locklear

One of the biggest names to come out of Melrose Place was Heather Locklear. While trying to earn her degree in psychology in 1979, Locklear started her modeling jobs for companies like Pepsi and Polaroid. Having tasted the bright lights of Hollywood, she caught the attention of legendary director Aaron Spelling. Locklear took the springboard when she starred in two of his shows: Dynasty and TJ Hooker.

Despite her failed forays into the movie world, her iconic status as a TV star was further cemented when she took the role of Amanda Woodward in Melrose Place. After the series ended, she appeared in Spin City along with Michael J. Fox. She last appeared on our screens in 2017, guest-starring in an episode of Fresh Off the Boat. Locklear announced her engagement to long-time boyfriend and former motocross racer Chris Heisser in April 2020.
