What happened between Tommy Lee and Brittany Furlan? The couple called it quits after 6 years of marriage

Allegedly together for six years, Tommy Lee and Brittany Furlan have split. The couple married on Valentine's Day 2019 after meeting on the dating app Raya in 2017. Rumor has it that Furlan and those close to the couple believed Lee's drinking had become "out of hand," which led them to end the relationship. Halfway through May 2025, the couple started living apart and sent enigmatic social media messages, which fueled rumors of their dispute. Even without a joint declaration or divorce papers, Lee and Furlan keep in touch.

Tommy Lee and Brittany Furlan: more details about the couple's split

First met on Raya in the start of 2017, Tommy Lee, 62, of Mötley Crüe renown, and Brittany Furlan, 38, of the internet phenomenon who rose to stardom on Vine. After becoming engaged in February 2018, the couple married in a modest, personal Valentine's Day 2019 wedding. Lee and Furlan wrote heartfelt tributes online and made few red carpet appearances throughout their marriage, usually praising one another's sense of humour and support.

Sources who spoke with TMZ said the couple had been living apart in different homes for around two weeks by early May 2025 due to ongoing fights over Lee's drinking. Mysterious Instagram images of couples have fueled breakup rumors. Leaving Furlan's fans, Lee shared a sneak peek of his new song "Stupid Girl," which references internal conflict. After Furlan shared a quote on truth and "darkness," her podcast co-host responded with a sympathetic note describing the scenario as "embarrassing."

Unnamed insiders informed Page Six and TMZ that Lee's excessive drinking was causing intolerable marital strain. Despite his family's pleas, he seemed declined to pursue recovery. Furlan said in a TikTok video how an impostor posing as singer Ronnie Radke had "catfished" her. This had made her suffer online harassment, and after informing Lee about it, hostilities had intensified. She said her social media use was beneficial for friends and that she meant no damage.

Representatives of either Furlan or Lee have not made any remarks confirming the separation or describing next steps. When Capitol broadcasters and tabloids contacted both parties, they allegedly declined to comment. Reports say the couple could be able to reconcile or peacefully resolve their legal disputes since they remain in touch via phone conversations and texts.

Lee's previous two marriages were to Elaine Starchuk (1984–1985) and Heather Locklear (1986–1993); this is his fourth. Public scandal and legal issues marked his fourth marriage to Pamela Anderson (1995–1998). Reports say Furlan, a Pennridge High School graduate and Vine star, does not want to have children. Her divorce, which happened in May of 2025, was first publicly announced here.

Court records show no divorce petition filed in any jurisdiction as of mid-May 2025. Observers say many well-known couples choose to marry legally after going their separate ways for a long period. Sources say Furlan could rethink the separation if Lee decides to keep treating her alcohol use problem. Conversely, a long divorce could contain prenuptial agreements and conversations about the wealth distribution, as is typical in celebrity breakups.
