Rumbled: Denise Richards and Richie Sambora are dating again, they were spotted enjoying a romantic meal at the weekendA source told Radar Online that the former lovers were definitely back on.
‘They are dating again,’ the insider said. ‘It is serious but they are trying to keep it low key.’
During their date, the couple – who were wearing his ‘n’ hers leather jackets – were seen enjoying some alone time.
‘They were there over an hour and they had the whole place to themselves for the last half hour,’ the source said.
Smiles better: Richie looks content as the couple leave the restaurant, while Denise looks concerned to be rumbled
Sharing a joke: But Denise can’t stop grinning as her on-off-on lover cracks a joke about getting a tattooThe couple then went for a stroll down the street, and as they passed a tattoo parlor, Richie made a joke to a giggling Denise.
‘What do ya think, should I get one?’ he said.
Denise and Richie were first in a relationship in 2006.

For her part, Denise insisted her relationship with Sambora was nothing but platonic until after Heather filed for divorce.
But Denise and Sambora ended their relationship in 2007 to focus on their respective families.
Sambora checked into rehab shortly after the split, and also earlier this year before leaving in June to join Bon Jovi on tour in Europe.
He told friends he’d been drinking too much.

Meanwhile, Denise and Charlie now share an amicable friendship for the sake of their two daughters, Sam, seven and Lola, six.
Last month the pair were seen in good spirits as they left a restaurant after dinner in New York.
Charlie protectively placed his arm around Denise as the pair posed for pictures outside Da Tommaso restaurant.
The actor has even bought a house for her only six doors down from his own in a gated Malibu community, so he can be closer to his daughters.
