Jon's ego is too big to just go and ask Richie to come back after everything that's happened.
I noticed on his final show in 2013 he sang I'll be there for you, not sure how many times on the 2013 tour he did that but I can't see any... also the last show was one of the shortest. I reckon he was pissed at not being as involved, demands to sing a song in the set, Jon gets pissed hence the shorter show and what we have is a battle of egos that drives a wedge.
