'My daughter is so excited I'm getting married': Heather Locklear says Ava is thrilled about her engagement to Jack Wagner

By Daily Mail Reporter


It will be third time lucky for Heather Locklear when she ties the knot with fiancé Jack Wagner.

And her 14-year-old daughter Ava is just thrilled that her mother has found love again.

The actress announced last month that she was getting married to her longtime partner and says her teen is happy about the planned nuptials.

'Ava was so excited when we told her,' Heather revealed in People magazine's new issue, Gorgeous At Any Age.

'She hugged Jack, said congratulations, and she immediately wanted to see the ring. Then she ran and Facebooked her new stepbrother.'

Ava chimed in: 'I want her to do what makes her happy. That's the main point.'

The teen says that she has her mother's approval of her own beau and he has an unsurprising hobby.

'He's tall and plays guitar. He's so sweet,' Ava gushed.

Heather joked: 'She's like, "I like a musician"... How weird. Where does she get that from?'

The actress and her own beau have just come back from a beach holiday in Hawaii where Heather celebrated her milestone birthday.

The couple - who played each other's love interests in Melrose Place - have been dating for four years.

According to reports this month, the couple were considering starring in their own reality show, which would document their lives and was to include Locklear's daughter from her marriage to Richie Sambora, Ava, and Wagner's two sons.

But the idea was shelved because Locklear considered herself 'a serious actress.'

While Wagner has been a regular on daytime soap The Bold and the Beautiful since 2003, Locklear reprised her role as Amanda Woodward in the ill-fated Melrose Place update in 2009.

They got engaged in August and she has been seen sporting an impressive diamond engagement ring.

In 2007 she divorced Bon Jovi rocker Richie Sambora after getting hitched in 1994.

She was also married to Motely Crue drummer Tommy Lee for seven years between 1986 and 1993.

Heather recently filmed The Assistants, which will also feature Disney star David Henrie.

Meanwhile it has emerged Ava has landed her first movie role in Judd Apatow's new comedy flick.

She will be taking a role in the new comedy, which is as yet untitled.

According to Variety, Sambora will have a cameo role as the best friend of Maude Apatow, who will play one of Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann's two daughters.
