Despite her short run in the industry, Tommy Lee was vocal about his pride for his daughter’s career.
“She’s a good actress, has her SAG card, speaks impeccable Spanish,” the Fugitive star told The New Yorker in 2006. “When she was a baby, I told Leticiaher nurse, to speak to her in Spanish.”
In fact, Victoria was such a huge part of Tommy Lee’s life that she inspired him to write The Homesmana Western exploring sexism in the 1800s, which he also directed and starred in.
“My grandmother, my mother, my wife, and my daughter are all women,” Tommy Lee, who married Dawn Laurel-Jones in 2001, said in an Interview magazine feature in 2014. “A lot of my dear friends, yourself included, are women. I am just interested in how they feel, and what’s wrong. And if you want to know what’s wrong today, looking at what was wrong yesterday is a pretty good place to start.”
