Heather Locklear was rushed to the hospital in Los Angeles last Thursday night after a frantic 911 call from her sister. She’s been discharged -- but now, her family wants the actress hospitalized again. First, Entertainment Tonight gets us up to speed on what happened last week.
“Xanax and alcohol were reportedly the dangerous cocktail Heather took which prompted her older sister to take swift action in fear that Heather would hurt herself.”
According to People Magazine, 50-year-old Locklear was, quote, “out of control.” A source says …
“‘Heather became a different person on drugs,’ adding that Locklear … may be heading into rehab shortly.”
TMZ reports a similar story, saying Locklear’s family wants her to get help, but it seems she won’t comply.
“Sources tell us the family wants her in a hospital setting this time around -- not a boutique rehab place … [But] as of [Friday], we're told Heather did not want to go to rehab again ... period.”
And ABC News notes — run-ins with substances and mental health issues aren’t new for the former ‘Melrose Place’ star.
“The last few years Heather’s had a lot of problems with substance abuse. She’s had a DUI. She had a reported suicide attempt...”

Locklear and boyfriend Jack Wagner broke off their engagement back in November -- reports are now saying the reason may be that he’s sober -- and she’s not.
