Brittany Furlan Lee is breaking her silence on her rumored split from husband Tommy Lee — and addressing claims that she was seduced by a catfish posing as another rock star.
In a TikTok posted on Saturday, May 17, Furlan, 38, admitted to exchanging messages with someone she believed to be Falling in Reverse frontman Ronnie Radke on Snapchat during a “tough time” in her six-year marriage.
Furlan’s seven-minute video comes after both she and Lee, 62, shared cryptic messages online, as well as a TMZ report said they have been living separately amid concerns over Lee’s alleged drinking behavior. It also comes after Radke, 41, alleged that Furlan was catfished by someone pretending to be him in a series of Instagram Stories posts — and claimed that Lee had threatened him over the situation.
“Obviously, I’m in a hotel right now. I’ve been going through a really tough time in my marriage, which was none of anyone’s f—— business, but he’s made it everyone’s business,” Furlan said in the TikTok, referring to Radke.
She went on to explain that after receiving messages from someone she believed to be Radke at the time, the Snapchat user “started trying to seduce me.”
Furlan said she didn’t save any of the messages because she “didn’t want to be shady” and is “in a vulnerable place.” Radke, meanwhile, shared a screenshot of “the only message she saved” from the alleged catfish — an NSFW text allegedly supplied by Furlan — on his TikTok while attempting to clear his name.
“He says this isn’t him. That’s fine, whatever. I don’t give a f—,” Furlan continued in her TikTok. She then showed alleged Instagram DMs between herself and the real Radke before asking him to leave her alone.

“It’s a catfish, cool. I got catfished. Why are you still harassing me?” Furlan then said. “Why are you sending me hundreds of messages? Why are you trolling me? I don’t give a f—. I unfollowed you. Leave me alone. That’s it.”
She also corroborated Radke’s claim that Lee confronted him over the catfish situation, which was previously evidenced only by a screenshot of the Mötley Crüe drummer’s alleged threats in an expired Instagram Stories post.
“Basically, I told my husband everything,” Furlan said. “I said, you know, ‘I’ve been talking to whoever I thought this was on Snapchat — he says it’s not him, cool, whatever — ‘cause I’m a good person. I mean, I’m not a good person for talking to someone while married. I’ve been going through a lot in my marriage. No excuse, whatever.”
“I come clean to my husband, my husband freaks out, messages him, that’s how this all started,” she added.
Outside of his alleged DMs to Radke, Lee also publicly nodded to the ongoing drama in his marriage in an Instagram post on May 16 that simply said: “Who’s been catfished?”
Reps for Lee did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment on Sunday, May 18.
Furlan finished her video with a plea for Radke to stop discussing her marriage with Lee and relationship with the alleged catfish publicly.
“You’ve blown up my whole life on social media,” she told Radke. “This is embarrassing for me, embarrassing for my husband. This whole f—— thing is embarrassing. I’ve been going through struggling with s— at home. I’m in a f—— hotel. Like, leave us f—— alone, bro. Like, if you want people to be obsessed with you, like, I don’t know, get another f—— hobby, dude. This is just some serious narcissist s—. I’m done. Anyone can think of it what they will. All good.”
“I’ve had enough,” the former Vine star added in the caption. “He’s been harassing me for two weeks. He’s been sent three cease and desists and has not listened. For the final time- Leave me alone Ronnie.”

“Imagine you grow up looking up to somebody like Tommy Lee,” Radke said, “and then all of a sudden out of nowhere he goes, ‘You’re f—— my wife.’ And I’m like, ‘What. I have no idea what you’re talking about.’ ”
He also followed this video up with another TikTok, this time attempting to prove that he has never had Snapchat downloaded on his phone.
According to posts from Radke and Furlan, lawyers are involved on both sides.
