Rock legend Jon Bon Jovi has had his fair share of dalliances. 

The rocker, 62, implied he had been with a hundred women in his life while speaking on the ABC special, Michael Strahan x Jon Bon Jovi: Halfway There.

Reflecting on his 35-year marriage with high school sweetheart Dorothea Hurley and tying the knot with her after achieving superstar status, Jon admitted he ‘got away with murder’.
‘It had to be tough on a relationship,’ Michael said. ‘You’re young,’ he continued, adding the Livin’ On A Prayer singer was considered ‘a sex symbol.’
‘I got away with murder,’ Jon – who recently admitted he wasn’t always a ‘saint’ in his 35-year marriage – replied. ‘I’m a rock and roll star. I’m not a saint. I’m not saying that there weren’t 100 girls in my life. I’m Jon Bon Jovi. It was pretty good!

‘But if you think I’m ever going to jeopardize my anything for believing the narcissist in me was real? What a stupid thing to do. What kind of excesses does a man need that’s going to fuel that fire? It’s just not worth it.’
It comes after Jon admitted that he was not always ‘been a saint’ during his 35-year marriage to wife Dorothea, who he first met in high school in 1980.

 

While speaking about his longtime love, the rocker praised her ‘tolerance’ of his demanding touring schedule.
‘These are all the wonderful clichés of rock stardom,’ he told The Independent. ‘It’s about never lying about having been a saint, but not being a fool enough to [mess] up the home life, either.’
Additionally, he credited their long-lasting union to a ‘mutual admiration society, and being lucky enough to have grown up together.’
Four days after the interview, Dorothea was absent at a screening of her husband’s documentary series Thank You Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story last week.
But the rocker’s representative clarified she was unable to attend as she had come down with COVID. ‘As of this morning, she’s feeling well and recovered,’ his rep told Page Six on Saturday.

Previously, Jon sang about regretting his past dalliances on the road in his 1993 track, Bed of Roses.
Back in 2007, he explained that due to his career he’s had to miss ‘tons of birthdays and school plays.’
‘I’ve been in one of the biggest rock bands in the world for 25 years, and I’m not a saint, and I have not been a saint,’ he told Best Life magazine, at the time. ‘It’s not like Dorothea came in halfway through the movie and didn’t know who she got.’
He went on to reveal that, despite his busy work, he’s always been committed to his spouse, who he wed at Graceland Chapel in Las Vegas in 1989, and their children.

‘I don’t look at this week’s hot starlet and think about trading in or trading up,’ he said. ‘I don’t have a mistress on the side or another family across town. You’re never going to read that story about me. I have no regard for that whole lifestyle.’
The lovebirds share four children: Stephanie, 30; Jesse, 28; Jake, 21; and Romeo, 19.
Previously, the Grammy winner told People that he ‘was immediately drawn’ to his wife ‘the minute’ he saw her.
‘And that’s never changed — 40 years ago,’ he said in 2020.

‘Having grown up together and grown together. And we really like each other. We want to hang out,’ he told the outlet.
The couple originally met in 1980 while attending Sayreville War Memorial High School in New Jersey, where the Runaway singer confessed she let him ‘cheat off her in history.’

‘I always said I was good at spotting potential too. I have a gift,’ Dorothea joked. ‘He’s cute. I’m shallow. I’ll admit it!’
Jon added: ‘We enjoy each other and we never fell for the trappings of what celebrity can do.
‘We’ve witnessed that happen over the years to people that were close to us and people that we knew from afar,’ he concluded. ‘It’s just what I do, it’s not who I am. I write songs. I happen to be very good at performing them. That’s it.’

During his latest interview, the rock star also raved about his son Jake’s engagement to Millie Bobby Brown, 20.
While he was not initially ‘aware’ of his future daughter-in-law’s work on Stranger Things, which propelled her to fame at just at just 12, he noted that he admires ‘her work ethic.’
‘Millie is a movie star. We just went to the premiere of Damsel with her, and Jake’s got his first movie out right now. I’m happy for him,’ the father-of-four gushed.
Brown and Jake got engaged in April 2023 following two years of dating.

‘They are two young people that are pursuing a dream together, so we’re supportive of it, because our hope for them — and Millie’s parents’ hope for them, because Bob and Kelly Brown, too, met when they were very young — is that the kids will grow together,’ the legendary musician said of the duo.
He continued: ‘Anything after that is out of all four of us as parents’ control, but they’re good kids. They’ll figure it out.’
Although Brown previously said Jon would not be performing at her wedding, he teased that he most likely would take the stage, at some point.
‘You know, I doubt her word on that very much,’ he mused. ‘We’ll see! It depends how much wine I have before we get to the moment where she sticks the mic in my face.’
