The world knows all about his whirlwind romance and subsequent marriage to Pamela Anderson.
But as it turns out, Tommy Lee’s, 60, true love may have been someone else.
According to his fourth wife, Brittany Furlan, Heather Locklear, 61, really was the love of his life
Furlan, 36, shared People that Lee calls the Melrose Place alumnus, whom he was married to from 1986 to 1993, “the one who escaped.”
She was the love of his life. I can see it because she’s just a fun, sweet, caring, wonderful person,” she said.

In fact, Tommy says he messed up in that relationship. He cheated on her. That’s why they are still very good friends to this day.’
The comedian and actress married the Mötley Crüe drummer in 2019 after a two-year relationship.
“Everyone always glorifies his relationship with Pam, but he was married to Heather for eight years,” Furlan said.
Heather and I are very close. She’s amazing, I love her,” Furlan told the outlet. “I think she’s the most kind, down-to-earth person.
“Of course we met through Tommy and became very close. She’s just really cool, really nice, just supportive and just a cool girl all around.”
Furlan has even told Lee that he was a fool for ruining his relationship with the Spin City alum.
“I yell at my husband, I’m like, ‘I can’t believe you cheated on her. She’s so cool,'” she said.
‘That was a different time. He was 25 years old, 26 years old. Not to make excuses, but he’s a very different man now than he was all those years ago. You live and you learn,” said the social media personality.
In addition to Furlan, Locklear and Anderson, to whom he was married from 1995 to 1998, Lee married Elaine Starchuk in 1984 and separated a year later.
Lee and Anderson share sons Brandon, 27, and Dylan, 25.

Locklear, meanwhile, dated Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora, 63. The former couple shares daughter Ava, 25.
And Furlan keeps things in perspective through her comedy. She performs regularly in Los Angeles.
“I literally joke about everything in my life. Some people will attack me for it and make fun of me, but I use comedy to cope with what I’m dealing with,” she said.
“It just fulfills me in so many ways and it’s so much fun just doing it.” I just love it and I just so enjoy my life with it. There’s no better feeling for me than making people laugh.’
