Brandon Lee has broken his silence on the alleged fight that went down between him and dad Tommy Lee. He says he tried to stage an intervention about his father’s alleged alcoholism.
Brandon Lee is finally speaking out about the alleged fight with his dad Tommy Lee, 55, In a March 7 statement to PEOPLE, The 21-year-old model says, “I’m devastated at the events of the last several days that have been a result of my father’s alcoholism. I’ve worked tirelessly organizing an intervention and it’s incredibly upsetting that it never came to fruition. I wanted my dad’s hopeful sobriety and recovery to be a private family matter but, as a result of his accusations on social media, I feel forced to speak out. I have and will continue to cooperate with law enforcement as needed. I love my father and just want to see him sober, happy and healthy.”
The Motley Crue drummer took to Instagram on March 6 to accuse his son of hitting him in the face, showing off a photo of a puffy lip with dried blood around his mouth. “My heart is broken. You can give your kids everything they could ever want in their entire lives and they can still turn against you. Good job Brandon! Great son,” he captioned the gory now-deleted pic.
In response to Brandon’s first and only comments on the situation, Tommy fired off an angry tweet saying “LMAAAO!!!! I’m happier than I’ve been in my entire life. I have a few drinks here & there because I’m fuckin retired and enjoying my life. I worked 30+ f***in years I deserve it. You didn’t arrange any intervention, you barely spoke to me while u were here. Just coverin ur ass!!” He then peaced-out, writing “See ya later social media! Can’t read anymore liesss.” Considering the drama of the past few days, staying off social media would be a really good idea.
