Dorothea Hurley - Biography
Dorothea Hurley is an American karate instructor who was born on August 20, 1962. She is also famous because being Jon Bon Jovi's wife.
A native of New Jersey, she grew up alongside the future rocker. They started off as friends as Dorothea was dating his best friend Bobby at the time. It was only when they both were in their 20s that they began their relationship. While on a stop in Los Angeles during the New Jersey Syndicate Tour in 1989, Dorothea eloped with Jon Bon Jovi and got married in Las Vegas. They have four children together, one daughter and three sons. Dorothea has been a constant source of support for her rock star husband and they have faced some of the most turbulent times of their lives together, including the time when their daughter, Stephanie, overdosed on heroin. In her high school days, Dorothea was a junior karate champion and later became an instructor in New Jersey. She also helps in running her husband’s restaurant chain.
Dorothea has four children with Jon Bon Jovi. Their oldest, a daughter named Stephanie, was born on May 31, 1993. She was followed by son Jesse, on February 19, 1995. They welcomed their third child and second son, Jacob, on May 7, 2002. Romeo, their fourth and youngest, was born in 2004.
In November 2012, Stephanie called her father at 2 a.m. in the morning and told him that she had overdosed on heroin at her dormitory at Hamilton College. She was subsequently taken to a hospital, where she recovered. The police did not press any charges neither against her nor her companion Ian Grant because of an existing local law that proscribes indictments of people who had overdosed on drugs.
After this incident, both Jon Bon Jovi and Dorothea were criticized and dubbed as bad parents. In response, Dorothea stated that she hoped their critics never have to experience what she and her family did.
