Heather Locklear celebrates 63rd birthday at Thousand Oaks ice-cream shop - ahead of her acting comeback in Lifetime movie about Ruby Franke

Heather Locklear kicked off her 63rd birthday celebrations on Wednesday by indulging in a frozen treat at Little Calf Creamery & Cafe, which is located not far from her $2M Thousand Oaks home.

The Melrose Place alum - who was clutching two iPhones - was joined at the ice-cream shop by a woman she calls her 'one of my favorite single BFFs' as well as her beloved dog, Mister.

Heather - who appeared at That's 4 Entertainment's 90s Con on September 14-15 - positively beamed while sporting a black V-neck Adidas top, matching leggings, and Nike sneakers.

On October 4, Locklear will celebrate the 27th birthday of her daughter Ava Elizabeth Sambora, whose February 12th engagement to investment associate Tyler Farrar was the 'second best day of my life.'

'First was the day she was born,' the six-time Golden Globe nominee gushed on Instagram. 'Sweetest couple ever. Congratulations!'

Heather welcomed her only child during her 11-year marriage to Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora, which ended in 2007.

Ava achieved her Master of Science in marriage and family therapy at USC last year after earning her Bachelor's of Arts in psychology at Loyola Marymount University in 2020.

Locklear is set to make her acting comeback as disgraced counselor Jodi Hildebrandt alongside Emilie Ullerup in Kevin Fair's drama Mormon Mom Gone Wrong: The Ruby Franke Story, which premieres October 26 on Lifetime.

The 56-year-old former pageant princess and the 42-year-old 8 Passengers YouTube star shared a philosophy about strict parenting, which turned out to be horrifying abuse on Ruby's malnourished eight-year-old and 12-year-old children.

Last year, Hildebrandt plead guilty to four counts of felony aggravated child abuse on December 27 and was sentenced to four terms of one to 15 years consecutively at the Utah State Correctional Facility.

The Dynasty alum hasn't had an acting gig since portraying author Kristine Carlson in Ellen S. Pressman's Don't Sweat the Small Stuff: The Kristine Carlson Story, which aired on Lifetime in 2021.

Heather - who's been in and out of rehab '20 times' - appears to be on the straight and narrow following her well-documented battle with substance abuse, mental health issues, and arrests for domestic violence and battery between 2006-2019.

In 2019, Locklear pleaded no contest to eight misdemeanor counts: five counts of battery on a peace officer, one count of battery on an emergency medical personnel, and two counts of resisting, obstructing or delaying a peace officer.

The SoCal native was ordered to complete a 30-day residential rehab stay in a mental health facility with a 120-day jail sentence suspended.
