“I’m not saying that there weren’t 100 girls in my life,” the musician recalled. “I’m Jon Bon Jovi. It was pretty good.”

Notably, Hurley missed the doc’s New York City screening — but her husband’s rep blamed her absence on a COVID-19 diagnosis.

Their eldest son tied the knot in the same Sin City chapel in May, marrying wife Jesse Light.
