Despite finding fame as the drummer and a founding member (alongside Mick Mars, Nikki Sixx, and Vince Neil) of the hugely popular Mötley Crüe, Tommy Lee has lived a true rock and roll lifestyle that has seen him stay in the spotlight for decades.
But has the relationship between Tommy Lee and Brittany Furlan managed to settle the notorious rock star once and for all?
He may be known as one of the greatest heavy metal drummers in the world, but many would argue it’s Tommy Lee’s promiscuous lifestyle that he is most recognized for. With endless emotional and sexual affairs and failed marriages, it seemed as though Tommy would never change his rock and roll ways.
However, while it may be impossible to name all of Tommy Lee’s lovers, it would seem that his latest might have been successful in taming his once wild ways.
Since 2017, Lee has been in a relationship with his now-wife Brittany Furlan. Seemingly head over heels in love, could this be a case of fourth time lucky for this bad boy, or will things soon go south?
In today’s post, we’re going to look at Tommy Lee’s and Brittany Furlan’s marriage giving you the rundown on how things are going.
Tommy Lee’s Previous Marriages
Before we look at Tommy Lee’s marriage to Brittany Furlan, let’s get a bit of backstory into Tommy’s other marriages. Well known for his countless partners, Tommy Lee has been married four times.
His first marriage was with Elaine Starchuk. The two dated for more than two years before tying the knot on November 24, 1984.
Unfortunately, the marriage only lasted 7 days, with the couple separating for reasons that would later be reported to be physical abuse.
The second woman to marry one of the greatest rockstars of all time was Heather Locklear.
Locklear married Lee on May 10, 1986. The two were married for 7 years. The two reportedly split after Tommy slept with a porn star.
In February 1995, Tommy Lee met Pamela Anderson and despite being engaged to model Bobbie Brown, the two were married just 4 days later.
The two had an on-again, off-again relationship which resulted in two children and that infamous sex tape. They divorced in 1998 but continued their relationship before finally separating in 2001.
Before meeting Brittany Furlan, Tommy Lee was also engaged to Prince’s ex-wife, Mayte Garcia, and a Greek-German singer called Sofia Toufa.
How Did Tommy Lee And Brittany Furlan Meet?
There’s no denying that Tommy Lee has led a rollercoaster of a love life up to now, but in 2017 things seemingly started to change.

She said, “He used to watch my Vine videos – he was one of my followers and obviously, I loved his music”.
She also said the two “hit each other up and ended up going on a couple of dates and it was awesome – now here we are”
Despite the 24-year age difference, all it took was a follow and some messages between the Mötley Crüe drummer and the influencer for things to get started.
