Ronnie Radke, the lead vocalist of Falling in Reverse, has initiated legal action against Brittany Furlan by filing a temporary restraining order. This development comes amid growing tensions following Furlan’s recent comments on social media related to a previous catfish scandal that involved Radke.
Details of the Restraining Order
Radke filed the restraining order in Los Angeles on January 5, 2025. According to reports from TMZ, he is seeking to have Furlan maintain a distance of at least 100 yards from him. The restraining order is alleged to be a response to claims of harassment from Furlan following her online activity.
Brittany Furlan’s Response
A representative for Furlan stated that the claims made against her are inaccurate. The representative also noted that Furlan’s legal team had issued multiple cease-and-desist notices in May due to what they perceived as harassment and misinformation directed at her. Furlan intends to address the matter through the legal process and emphasizes her desire for a peaceful resolution.
Social Media Posts Triggering the Legal Action
The conflict escalated when Furlan posted on her Instagram Story, referencing a specific account that had been messaging her and making remarks related to her and her husband, Tommy Lee, as well as Saraya, Radke’s ex-girlfriend. Furlan’s posts included screenshots of messages, stating that the account was following her, Lee, and Saraya.
Investigation Into Allegations
- Furlan claimed that the account messages showed similarities to Radke’s communication style.
- She attempted to verify this by using Instagram’s password recovery feature, which revealed links to Radke’s phone numbers.
- Furlan also audited interactions on her dog’s Instagram account, which is not blocked by Radke, further supporting her concerns.
Background on the Catfish Scandal
The ongoing dispute traces back to May 2025 when Tommy Lee publicly questioned the authenticity of relationships, leading Radke to accuse Furlan of being involved with a catfish impersonating him. The situation had previously escalated to mutual accusations, with both parties sharing evidence online.
Radke’s Reaction
In response to Furlan’s allegations, Radke took to social media to discredit her claims. He accused her of fabricating the narrative and attempting to manipulate fans into supporting her position. Radke stated that he has never attempted to contact Furlan directly and voiced his frustration about the ongoing situation.
Conclusion
The conflict between Radke and Furlan highlights the complexities of online interactions and the potential for misunderstandings. As both parties engage in legal proceedings, the circumstances surrounding their past and present will continue to unfold publicly.
