News Article: Brittany Furlan and Tommy Lee Encouraged to Use ChatGPT to Strengthen Bond
Los Angeles, June 9, 2025 – Brittany Furlan and Tommy Lee’s tumultuous marriage has been in the spotlight following a catfishing scandal that nearly ended their six-year union. Amid their reconciliation, psychotherapist and sex expert Vanessa Marin suggests the couple leverage AI tools like ChatGPT to enhance their relationship, both emotionally and intimately. Furlan, 38, previously admitted to using ChatGPT for affection during a lonely period in her marriage to the Mötley Crüe drummer, 62, when she felt “so incredibly disconnected” (TMZ, June 9, 2025).
Marin, speaking to TMZ, praised Furlan’s openness about using AI, noting it “positively normalizes” seeking digital tools for connection. She recommends ChatGPT for sparking tough conversations, suggesting fun date ideas, or sharing bedroom tips to rekindle intimacy. Marin’s own AI tool, Vanessa AI, is designed to help couples like Furlan and Lee navigate challenges. “AI can bring couples closer than ever,” she said.
The advice comes after Furlan’s emotional affair with a catfish posing as Falling in Reverse’s Ronnie Radke, which led to a brief separation and public drama, including Lee’s cryptic Instagram post, “Who’s been catfished?” (E! News, May 19, 2025). On her podcast This Is The Worst (June 4, 2025), Furlan revealed the ordeal “weirdly brought us together,” though healing remains ongoing. X users are divided, with some like @PopCrave praising their resilience, while others mock the AI suggestion as “desperate.” As the couple rebuilds, AI might just be their unexpected ally.
