Tommy Lee and Brittany Furlan are putting rumors to rest — and doing it with a selfie.

Over the weekend, the Mötley Crüe drummer shared a photo of himself and Brittany Furlan smiling outdoors, following months of speculation about their relationship. Tommy Lee wrote in the Instagram caption dated July 19:

“Hey fake news we’re not separated or divorced!! Get your s*** together!!”

The couple, who tied the knot in February 2019, faced renewed scrutiny in May after Falling in Reverse frontman Ronnie Radke publicly accused Brittany Furlan of being catfished by someone pretending to be him.

The situation unfolded across multiple platforms, prompting Brittany Furlan to address the matter on TikTok. She said:

“It’s a catfish, cool. I got catfished. Why are you still harassing me? 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 revealed she had told Tommy Lee “everything” about the exchange and how it had affected their marriage.

“You’ve blown up my whole life on social media. This is embarrassing for me, embarrassing for my husband.”

“I Love this. Reflecting is healing. Shit happens and sometimes it makes people even stronger as they see what they almost lost. Right or wrong for some, they love each other and true love fights for what it wants. None of us is relevant to what they decide. So happy for them,” a fan added.

“The big thing is healing”: Brittany Furlan Lee opens up about her Marriage to Tommy Lee following catfish incident

Tommy Lee and Brittany Furlan Lee’s marriage update comes a month after the actress-internet personality reflected on the ordeal of the catfish scandal, and its impact on her relationship.

On a June episode of her This Is the Worst podcast, she said:

“The big thing is healing. We’ve been through this situation similarly before and it’s hard. All I can say is that relationships are complicated and everyone has their s*** and we’re not immune to that just because we’re in the public eye.”

The 38-year-old comedian also addressed the current state of her six-year marriage to Tommy Lee, clarifying that despite recent challenges, they are working through it together.

“All of this happening has weirdly brought us together, which is really strange. I think we really faced like, ‘Oh, what would life really be like without each other?’”

Despite the rocky few months, the couple seems to be moving forward.
