On Wednesday’s episode (April 17), the 62-year-old rock legend made an appearance on the programme to discuss his latest docu-series, “Thank You, Goodnight”. The conversation shifted to the departure of Richie Sambora from the group in 2013, and the interview seemed to take a negative turn, with the rockstar leaving shortly after it concluded. The trio had been discussing Richie’s appearance in the new documentary, where he opened up about his struggles with alcoholism and his decision to leave the band due to personal reasons. Despite this, Richie emphasized that there was no animosity between him and the group.
Bon Jovi expressed his appreciation for Richie’s honesty and the truth behind his departure, understanding his reasons for leaving. It was evident that Richie had watched his former bandmate talk about his departure for the first time. Bon Jovi swiftly thanked the hosts before making a quick exit.
