In 2018, it was reported by Yahoo Life that Brandon had allegedly punched Lee in the face following a tweet he had posted in response to Anderson mentioning the spousal abuse in an interview with Piers Morgan. Following the incident, Brandon gave a statement to People blaming his “father’s alcoholism”.

He said: “I’m devastated at the events of the last several days that have been a result of my father’s alcoholism.” He added:“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.”
