Published
Gene Simmons‘ wife says it’s time for him to make some lifestyle changes after his recent car accident … admitting she doesn’t want to be by his side in the passenger seat anymore.
Shannon Tweed tells TMZ … after losing consciousness while driving down Pacific Coast Highway and crashing his SUV into a parked car in Malibu this week — she says, “I’m not driving with him anymore.”
While Shannon hasn’t told Gene since the crash that it’s time to step away from the wheel … she says she plans on having their kids do her bidding in the coming days.
Apparently, Gene’s family suggested he hire a driver a while back, after Shannon says he rammed his car into a brick wall while driving in L.A.’s Benedict Canyon — but he insisted he was fine.
What’s concerning to her this time around … she says the airbags in Gene’s Lincoln Navigator didn’t deploy when he crashed into the parked car.
Moving forward … she says she’s fine with short rides, but the freeway is officially off-limits.
As for Gene … there’s “not a scratch on him,” and he’s been spending the day on the phone like nothing happened. His car isn’t totaled, but the bumper is hanging off.
