Richie Sambora is a rock artist who has an estimated net worth of $65 million. He is currently making headlines after reports claim that he allegedly abuse and threatened to kill his on-and-off ex-girlfriend, Nikki Lund.
Richie Sambora and his net worth value are now under public scrutiny because of the criminal threat reports. But who is Richie Sambora? Are there any truth about the allegations?
For three decades, Richie Sambora was the longtime lead guitarist of the famous rock band Bon Jovi. He is a 55-year-old rock guitarist, singer-songwriter and producer. Along with the band's frontman, Jon Bon Jovi, they became the primary songwriting unit of the band.
Richie Sambora has been performing with his band and as a solo act for quite a long time. Thus, it resulted to an amassed net worth value of $65 million, as listed by The Richest. Though he was not a commercially successful solo artist, he has still released three albums such as "Stranger in This Town" in 1991, "Undiscovered Soul" in 1998 and "Aftermath of the Lowdown" in September 2012.
Aside from Richie Sambora's solo project, which gave him the opportunity to explore other areas of music particularly the blues-influenced rock genre, he also performed as a guest artist on multiple records. And in 2009, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
For now, Richie Sambora, who has an estimated net worth of $65 million as per Celebrity Net Worth, is facing allegations of assault. According to People, Sambora's ex-girlfriend, Nikki Lund filed a police report claiming that she was abused and was threatened to be killed by her ex-lover.
The police report was confirmed by Los Angeles County Sheriff Department's Lt. Jennifer Seetoo. She said there was indeed a criminal threat report filed Wednesday. However, she refused to identify the parties involved.
Richie Sambora, who's a multimillion net worth earner, had an on-and-off-again relationship with Nikki Lund for almost a decade after he divorced his wife Heather Locklear, Fox News reported. Last year, they became partners in the Nikki Rich clothing line and were planning to open a boutique. However, tensions between the couple started to escalate this year after Sambora pulled out of the company and the store was never established.
Meanwhile, Sambora's rep Terry Ahern denied Lund's allegations on Friday. He said that the lead guitarist's ex-ladylove just filed a "cluster of lies 13 days after" as a revenge to Richie Sambora, who is currently vacationing in Bora Bora with ex-wife Heather Locklear and their teenage daughter Ava, for pulling out in their partnership.
"This is a cluster of fabricated lies in retaliation for Mr. Sambora's decision to cease further funding of the unprofitable partnership, plain and simple," Sambora's rep Terry Ahern told the New York Daily News.
So, will Richie Sambora's net worth be affected by Nikki Lund's allegations?
