A timeline of Pamela Anderson's relationships, from marrying Tommy Lee to sparking dating rumors with Liam Neeson
She and her "The Naked Gun" co-star Liam Neeson sparked dating rumors while promoting their film.
Here's a look back at her romantic history, from Kid Rock to Julian Assange.
When it comes to falling in love, few in Hollywood can match Pamela Anderson.
Since the late 1980s, Anderson has been linked to hard rockers, surfers, and even Julian Assange.
Most recently, Anderson, 58, sparked dating rumors with her "The Naked Gun" costar Liam Neeson, 73. The two played coy about their offscreen relationship while appearing on "Today" to promote the movie, but according to People, the stars are in a "budding romance."
Reps for Anderson and Neeson did not respond to a request for comment.
Here's a look back at Anderson's dating history.
Jon Peters
In the late 1980s, Anderson dated "Batman" producer Jon Peters. They then rekindled their relationship in 2019 and reports claimed they'd married in a private ceremony in 2020. Twelve days later, Anderson told The Hollywood Reporter that the marriage paperwork was never formalized and that the two were going their separate ways. In a 2024 interview, Anderson again denied that she and Peters ever married, telling The Hollywood Reporter, "it was just a funny moment."
Scott Baio
During Anderson's Playboy modeling days, she dated Baio, who got her one of her first acting gigs as a guest star on his hit show, "Charles in Charge."
Bret Michaels
Anderson's attraction to bad boy rockers started with Michaels, but she and the Poison frontman only lasted a year.
Kelly Slater
Anderson dated her "Baywatch" costar on and off for years beginning in the mid-1990s and up until she became smitten by another hard rocker.
Tommy Lee
When Anderson met Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee in 1995, she thought she'd found her soulmate. Four days after meeting, they married; they went on to have two children together.
Anderson and Lee's three-year-relationship quickly became a focus of the tabloids. When their sex tape was leaked to the public, they catapulted into pop-culture infamy. The sex tape saga would go on to become the basis of the 2022 Hulu limited series "Pam & Tommy."
The two tried to rekindle their relationship in the early 2000s, but it didn't last.
Marcus Schenkenberg
After Tommy Lee, Anderson had a very brief romance with this male model from 2000 to 2001.
Kid Rock
Anderson nabbed another bad boy rocker in 2001. She and Kid Rock were briefly engaged during their two years together. They married in 2006, but divorced less than a year later.
Laurence Hallier
Anderson and real-estate mogul Hallier dated for five years. They split in 2010, which resulted in them both suing each other over projects they were involved in.
Rick Salomon
Anderson's third (and fourth) husband is someone who has been close to her for years. She and the professional poker player first married in 2007; that only lasted a year. They tried again in 2014, but again, for only a year.
Jamie Padgett
Between marriages with Salomon, Anderson briefly dated this surfer.
Julian Assange
In 2017, at the height of Assange's political asylum inside the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, Anderson had a fling with the WikiLeaks founder.
Adil Rami
Anderson's relationship with the French soccer pro ended messy, as she accused Rami of infidelity and abuse.
Dan Hayhurst
Anderson's last marriage was to her former bodyguard. They tied the knot on Christmas Eve in 2020. The two divorced in 2022.
Liam Neeson
Anderson and Neeson had never met before costarring in "The Naked Gun." Rumors that they were dating began to swirl when the two began doing press for the movie in July 2025.
While appearing on "Today," the two were asked about the dating rumors.
"It's like, 'Oh, this is nice. Let's not mold this. Let's just let it breathe,'" Neeson said. "And that's what we did."
The same day they were on "Today," People reported that the two are dating. A source told the outlet: "It's a budding romance in the early stages. It's sincere, and it's clear they're smitten with each other."

Liam Neeson calls filming 'Naked Gun' sex scene with Pamela Anderson ‘a little bit strange'
Liam Neeson teased details about a sex scene with Pamela Anderson that fans will see in "The Naked Gun." "There's a threesome," Neeson told Stephen Colbert during Wednesday's episode of "The Late Show." "And one of the participants is very cold." The actor revealed the scene in question was his first time using an intimacy coordinator. Neeson claimed the experience was "a little bit strange." "Well, Pamela and I knew..." Neeson began, before Colbert interrupted with, "You guys knew what to do? But did you know how to bring in a third or was that old hat for you?" "No, that was a first," Neeson quipped while laughing. "That had to be specifically choreographed." Neeson and Anderson have been "enjoying each other's company" after they wrapped filming for "The Naked Gun." "It's a budding romance in the early stages," a source confirmed to People magazine. "It's sincere, and it's clear they're smitten with each other." Neeson and Anderson have been promoting the comedy reboot, which premieres Aug. 1. The "Naked Gun" co-stars appeared on the "Today" show on Tuesday morning, and at one point during the show, they were shown with their arms around each other in what appeared to be a passionate embrace. Neeson, 73, gave Anderson, 58, a steamy kiss before the pair turned to the camera, looking surprised. The hosts were heard in the background saying, "They're making out on the 'Today' show!" Neeson hinted at the relationship rumors during their interview, when host Craig Melvin asked, "What's the deal here?" After joking around, Neeson explained, "I had never met Pamela before. We met on set. And we discovered we had a lovely, budding chemistry – as two actors." The "Taken" star added that nothing has been forced between the two. "It's like, 'Oh, this is nice. Let's not mold this. Let's just let it breathe.' And that's what we did." Neither star has confirmed nor denied a romance.

‘Batman' and ‘Casper' Are Coming Back to Theaters
This fall, the Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy is coming back to theaters, and they won't be alone. In the weeks and months ahead, fellow re-releases will include Tim Burton's Batman duology and 1995's Casper. In the former's case, both 1989's Batman and 1992's Batman Returns will be a special, one-night event on August 25. Over 160 Dolby Cinema at AMC Theaters locations will play the two movies, and it looks like AMC's putting enough enough distance between them for you to watch them in one go. At the time of its release, Returns was the first feature film to ever be released in Dolby Digital, which began what we now know as surround sound. This'll be the first time either movie has been presented in Dolby Vision or Atmos. Tickets for the two movies can be purchased here and here. Meanwhile, Casper returns to the big screen for its 30th anniversary this past May. The horror-comedy will play in theaters from October 3 to Halloween, a perfect kid-focused horror movie for the season. When it came out, it was the first movie to ever feature a fully CGI character in the lead role. You can grab advance tickets here. So for the re-release heads, that's Batman and its sequel on August 25, the Spider-Man movies on September 26, and Casper on October 3. And if that weren't enough, Disney's already locked down the original Star Wars to come back to theaters for its 50th anniversary on April 30, 2027.
