The New York Post is reporting that it's Jon Bon Jovi's wife Dorothea that's behind Richie Sambora's absence from Bon Jovi's current tour. Although speculation has pointed the finger at either Sambora's sobriety issues and/or bad blood between the guitarist and the frontman, the latest insider report is portraying Dorothea as a "Yoko Ono-like" presence. The source says that Dorothea has been pushing for the band's current tour to be drug and booze free: "Jon (Bon Jovi) has been trying to get rid of him. He drinks constantly and has a stream of Hollywood bimbos around all the time. . . (Sambora) told me that he didn't believe in rehab. He really is a hard partier, and so are the women he hangs out with."
