Richie and Stuart Smith in Santiago
You may be saying, "uh, WHO?" You can read all about Stuart here, but the connection is to his 1999 album, Stuart Smith’s Heaven & Earth. Richie recorded a cover of the Deep Purple song "When a Blind Man Cries". See below.

Oh, and apologies up front if I got your hopes up with the YouTube video -- this is NOT a live recording; it's a slide show of great Richie pictures set to the song.

...the connection is also that Stuart was previously married to Heather's sister Colleen Locklear
Stuart and Colleen split up about a year and half before Richie and Heather.
Stuart's fiancee (possibly wife now) gave birth to a little girl called Sophia last year; little Sophia was born several months early weighing just under 4 pounds and her esophogus had not attached to her stomach properly so she couldn't feed...Stuart did not have appropriate medical cover and the bills have mounted up. I'm guessing that Richie funded this little trip to South America and maybe is helping Stuart out in a few other ways too ;)
Thanks, Anon, I knew that Stuart referred to Richie as his "former brother in law" so I guessed he was married to Heather's sister, but I didn't look for any information on that.
That's terrible about his little girl. I'd like to think Richie'd help a friend who needed it. :)
Here's hoping little Sophia only gets stronger.

That is because the man is a saint.
And a damn good king of swing.
Richie looks so HOT in this photo!
