Why did Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson get divorced?

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee’s romance lasted about three full years before their divorce.

After the love birds got married in 1995, the Mötley Crüe drummer was arrested for spousal abuse, child abuse, and unlawful possession of a firearm in 1998.

Lee was sentenced to six months in prison.

According to police reports, he assaulted Anderson in their Malibu home while she was holding their 2-month-old baby.

Anderson requested custody of their two sons amidst the divorce.

In his 2001 memoir, “The Dirt,” Lee said he “couldn’t understand why Pamela had followed through with pressing charges” and that “she was probably scared and thought I was some crazy, violent monster…she probably wanted an easy way out of a difficult situation. As much as I loved Pamela, she had a problem dealing with things.”
