Richie Sambora & Denise Richards Split?

I find In Touch to be as reliable as my Rolling Stone subscription (which comes once a month instead of weekly... sigh!). But the rag is making a whole big fuss about their "world exclusive" claiming Denise Richards and Richie Sambora have split and they have confirmation from Denise's rep.

According to the story, Denise and Richie actually broke up two months ago, but "because they lived through public divorces and it was very painful" they kept their breakup a secret. Denise even attended Richie's father's funeral on April 20, traveling from LA to New Jersey to be with her ex. And she went on -- and on! -- about him in the new Glamour.

As you'll remember, Denise famously hooked up with the Bon Jovi rocker shortly after he split from his wife, Heather Locklear, who was also one of Denise's closest gal pals. At the time Blabber readers were outraged that Denise broke the "friends don't date exes" code.

Consider Denise's single status a warning to the other ladies in Hollywood to keep an eye on their men.

Update: People is confirming the split.
