Ava once said, "The best advice my mother ever gave me was not to take everything so personally. There are going to be a thousand times you’ll hear ‘no,’ but, it only takes a few yeses, and waiting for those yeses will be worth it, and I think that’s such an important mindset to have in this business." Ava Sambora finds strength from both her parents Ava enjoying a new spring / Instagram Born on October 4, 1997, Ava turns 24 this autumn, and at 23 graduated college.

For his part, Richie simply explained, "You know, I ain't no angel. But I realized, Ava needed me to be around at that point in time. Family had to come first, and that's what happened."

Specifically, "she would stop what she was doing and come to comfort me. When I would insist she did not have to, she would stay on the phone with me late into the night, until I was calm enough to sleep. She did everything she could to help me get through those difficult months, from taking me to every doctor’s appointment to giving me tons of books on managing anxiety." It seems Ava has some good guidance she grew up with, and a support system in the form of an apparent significant other namedTyler Farrar. Congratulations! https://www.youtube.com/watch?voZUPr_HymgY
