Before Brittany Furlan, Tommy Lee had been married thrice. He was married to Elaine Starchuk from 1984 to 1985.

In 1995, Lee got married to Pamela Anderson. The couple who parted ways in 1998 share two sons, Brandon Lee, 28, and Dylan Jagger Lee, 27.

But Brittany Furlan fired back, saying, “That's insane. Tommy is a grown-up and makes his own decisions,” as reported by TMZ.
Lee also shared a statement at the time, saying, “Do I drink more than the average Joe? Yes. Have I ever hurt my sons or acted out of turn with them because of my drinking? No.”
“No matter how much people wanna pin me as this deviant alcoholic abuser, that isn't me. I'm a happy, fun-loving guy,” he added.
Without directly naming his ex-wife, Lee also noted, “Because I was on tour working; making money to pay for their private schools and their cars, and their future, so they spent time with their mother. She became the hero. And I've come to peace with that.”
