Richie Sambora

Singer says he’s spoken to guitarist just twice since “shock” split.

He sensed that Jon Bon Jovi preferred to be a solo artist.

Guitarist confirms he's open to returning to Bon Jovi once the frontman recovers.

It's the first of four new songs the guitarist will be releasing.

A representative says the guitarist left a screening early because he was “sick and tired of what he was seeing."

"Doesn't mean that there's not love forever," singer tells UCR.

There's a Bon Jovi documentary in the works too.

"But I could do it tomorrow if they asked me," guitarist adds.

He left band just hours before showtime in Calgary.

Classic-era guitarist's rumored return seemingly inches closer to fruition.
