Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson 'can't fake' their chemistry as insider spills on red hot romance
Insiders who know the pair say their romance is the real deal. 'It's very sincere how they feel,' a source told Page Six. 'That is the truth.'
'They're not going to show up on the red carpet and be adorable just to be fake, that's not either of them.'
'They make for a beautiful couple…Liam is a gentleman, he's warm and present, he's a very lovely man,' the source claimed.
According to an insider who spoke to US Weekly, Neeson, 73, 'has been intrigued and smitten' by the former Baywatch star, 58, 'since they started filming the comedy,' adding that the action star 'expressed this to her.'
The widowed Neeson, who lost his wife Natasha Richardson following a skiing accident in March 2009, had sworn off dating in 2024, but admitted to People that he was 'madly in love' with Anderson.
'She's just terrific to work with,' he said, adding, 'I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with. She's going to be terrific in the film.'
For her part, Anderson said she was 'nervous' to meet the Taken star before starting the project.
''[I was] nervous to meet [Liam], of course and you're always nervous the first day on the set...' she said at a SiriusXM Town Hall event in New York City on Wednesday where the couple held hands.
The actress who has been vegan for more than three decades brought healthy treats to her co-star on set.
'I brought sourdough bread to Liam and cookies and muffins and it kept me busy, said the I Love You: Recipes from the Heart cookbook author.
She said the baking 'Kept me outta trouble,' and that her muffin recipe is 'very special... It's very good for you. Let's just say that.' Neeson called the sourdough 'phenomenal' and revealed the muffins featured 'a lot of bran'.
During the event, the Schindler's List star admitted he was charmed by Pamela from the moment they first met.
He said: 'Well, you know, we had never met before and I remember thinking: "Wow, she is gorgeous" but she had this wonderful sense of silliness and just humanity about her.
In a 2024 interview with People Neeson said of Anderson, 'I can't compliment her enough... She's funny and so easy to work with. She's going to be terrific in the film'; Pictured in New York City on Wednesday
'I don't want to blow her head up, but it was like I just felt an ease with her, you know, and we discovered a silliness with each other, which was terrific, you know?'
The pair appear to have the approval of their sons, who joined them on the red carpet of the US premiere in New York City on Monday.
Neeson is dad to Daniel, 28, who shares his last name, and Micheál Richardson, 30, who shares his late mother's. Anderson shares her sons Brandon, 29, and Dylan, 27, with ex-husband Tommy Lee.

Meghan Markle's As Ever brand posts gushing birthday tribute to praise 'the woman behind it all'
Meghan Markle 's As Ever brand has posted a gushing birthday tribute as the entrepreneur turns 44 years old. The Duchess' own lifestyle company took to Instagram with a black and white snapshot of the mom-of-two wearing a sundress and hat as she beamed into the distance. The caption enthused about Meghan and her role leading the company. 'Celebrating the woman behind it all,' it read. 'She pours her heart, vision and magic touch into every detail, and today, we raise a glass to her! Happy birthday to our founder.' It was then re-shared on As Ever's Instagram Story alongside two champagne flutes clinking together in celebration. Meghan launched her lifestyle brand earlier this year, releasing the first products in April, which included a range of teas, a raspberry spread, and a limited-edition wildflower honey with honeycomb, amongst other things. She followed it up with an apricot spread and another honey, and in July, she expanded into the world of alcohol when she dropped her own wine - the 2023 Napa Valley Rosé. Each release has been met with fierce excitement from her fans, and every product has sold out pretty quickly. And her birthday comes just days after she announced another product coming to her As Ever line. Last week, the company revealed that following the buzz surrounding the 2023 Napa Valley Rosé, it will be launching another wine, with a slight tweak... calling it the 2024 Napa Valley Rosé. It vowed that it will pretty much taste the same as As Ever's first wine. 'It marries the same harmony of notes from our first blend and creates an elegant medley of delicate yet memorable flavor,' read a press release. 'You'll want to clink glasses with friends as the sun sets, toasting to a summer of joy. 'Barefoot or in sandals, dressed up or dressed down, this rosé may become your favorite accessory for alfresco lunches and dinners at dusk.' In the release, As Ever listed some of the positive feedback customers had given the company over its first rosé, which included comments like, '10 out of 10,' 'perfect,' and 'elevated flavor.' Meghan launched her lifestyle brand earlier this year, releasing the first products in April, which included a range of teas, a raspberry spread, and a limited-edition wildflower honey with honeycomb, amongst other things 'This affirmed all of the love, time and effort our team, and our founder, poured into curating this blend to evoke the sun drenched spirit of Napa Valley, and the breathtaking tenor of the California Coast,' As Ever added. 'Thank you for filling our cup. Now it's time for us to fill your glass! We are pleased to share that our 2024 Napa Valley Rosé will be available for purchase next week.' Last month, Daily Mail exclusively revealed that the alcoholic beverage is made by Fairwinds Estate, a California winery that creates bespoke wines for celebrities. The 2023 Napa Valley Rosé is described on the bottle as a 'delicately balanced rosé with soft notes of stone fruit, gentle minerality, and a lasting finish.' It has a 14.5 percent alcohol by volume for the 750ML bottle. The Daily Mail FEMAIL team tried the rosé and while the wine was smooth, we couldn't easily detect the notes of stone fruit. In fact, it tasted quite bland, and almost water-y. In addition, the rosé had some acidic notes, leaving a somewhat uncomfortable sensation at the back of our throats after swallowing. In the end, the verdict was the wine lacked flavor and tasted affordable and ordinary. It wasn't terrible - but it certainly wasn't great.

Denise Richards shows up at ex Aaron Phypers' HOUSE just days after taking out restraining order on him
Denise Richards made a shock visit to estranged husband Aaron Phypers' LA home on Sunday - days after taking out a temporary restraining order on him. The 54-year-old actress, whose split from Phypers, 52, was revealed last month, was granted the TRO on July 16, after accusing Phypers of years of physical and emotional abuse - which he has denied. The court ordered Phypers to stay 100 yards away from Richards and her homes, workplaces and cars - but Richards was seen arriving at Phypers' Calabasas home 'to pick up a dog' before she was confronted by police in photos obtained by TMZ. Sources told the publication Richards arrived 'unannounced' at the home and 'started banging on a back door, demanding to be let inside.' Phypers saw this and immediately left due to concern over the restraining order. Phypers' parents let Richards inside and it was claimed she 'barged in, demanded the dog' and 'screamed at his parents that they needed to get out of the house, putting her finger in their faces.' The publication claims she allegedly began 'swinging' at Phypers' brother Brett and 'throwing mail at him.' Brett was later pictured standing by Richards' parked Corvette as they waited for police. Richards was seen being questioned by three Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies outside the home, with police concluding 'there was no crime committed and no arrests were made.' A distraught Phypers was seen consoling his 'terrified and shaken up' mom after Richards' visit - which marks the latest explosive chapter in the pair's acrimonious divorce. In California, victims named as the 'protected person' in a restraining order will not get into trouble for contacting the person against whom the order was taken out. However, the person who is restrained by the order may use it as evidence to dismiss the order in future court proceedings. Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Denise Richards for comment and has yet to hear back. After Aaron filed divorce paperwork on July 7, Denise hit back a week later with a request for a temporary restraining order (which she was granted) that included a laundry list of domestic abuse allegations — all of which her husband has denied. Her estranged husband has since denied all allegations of abuse, while a source close to Phypers told the Daily Mail that her black eye was actually the result of a drunken fall. The two starred together on their family reality TV show Denise Richards & Her Wild Things with her daughters Sami, 21, Lola, 19, and Eloise, 13 He said he is waiting for an upcoming August court hearing in which a judge will decide if the order is lifted, and until then, he is banned from going near his estranged wife and their adopted daughter Eloise, 14, whom he says he adores and misses terribly. It comes days after Phypers alleged that she has been having a months-long affair with a former special forces soldier named Rudy Reyes. He claimed in a detailed letter to 'family and close friends' that Reyes has showered her with X-rated photos and videos, including a graphic clip that shows him naked and pleasuring himself. In an exclusive interview with the Daily Mail, the Wild Things actress' outraged husband claimed he caught wind of his wife's alleged affair in April. He said she had promised to break it off, only for him to catch her lying about another hook-up with 53-year-old Rudy that took place at a Hilton Garden Inn in Burbank, California, the following month. He claimed his discovery of the May tryst then led to an explosive argument over the July 4th holiday weekend, during which she smashed his phone. Phypers was the founder of the Malibu wellness center, Q360 Club (also known as Quantum 360), until he chose to shut it down last year, on October 1, 2024. According to his petition for divorce, filed on July 7, he has not made any income since. Richards, allegedly makes $250,000 per month from being on OnlyFans, TV shows, having brand deals and doing appearances, he noted in the income and expense declaration obtained by the Daily Mail. He's requesting spousal support since he alleges his monthly expenses total $105,000, and is demanding he and Richards split 50 percent of their production company, Smoke & Mirrors Entertainment.

Audio of Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson arguments from Marriage Story used to scare off wolves in the US
Marriage Story, Noah Baumbach's drama starring Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver as a divorcing couple engaged in a raging custody battle, won universal acclaim from critics and numerous awards, including six Oscar nominations and one win, for Laura Dern's barnstorming attorney. But perhaps the highest honour has just been revealed by the Wall Street Journal, which reports that audio of the central couple screaming at one another has been judged so upsetting it is now being used to deter wolves from attacking livestock. 'I need the wolves to respond and know that, hey, humans are bad,' a US Department of Agriculture district supervisor in Oregon told the WSJ. His teams employ 'drone cowhands, whose quadcopters have thermal cameras that can reveal any wolf lurking in the darkness'. The predator is then spotlit and treated to audio blasted over a loudspeaker. Aside from Baumbach-scripted acid insults, tracks include fireworks, gunshots and AC/DC's Thunderstruck. The practice is know as 'wolf hazing' and is employed rather than culling as grey wolves are on the federal government's list of endangered species. Happily, Driver and Johansson's Academy Award-nominated performances have proved just as impactful for canines as humans. 'Drones were deployed in the Klamath Basin of southern Oregon after 11 cows were killed by wolves there in a 20-day period,' reports the WSJ. 'Over the next 85 days, when drones were on patrol, only two were killed.' Other emotionally volatile high-points in the 2019 film include Driver's feeling rendition of Steven Sondheim's Being Alive and Dern's caustic broadside about the double standards by which mothers and fathers are judged (which found an echo in America Ferrera's speech in the 2023 film Barbie, which was also co-written by Baumbach). It is not believed either of these moments are also being broadcast to pests. Marriage Story premiered at the Venice film festival in 2019 and was named on many critics' best of the year lists, coming second on the Guardian's year-end roundup. In his five star review of the film, Peter Bradshaw singled out the 'central rage-filled confrontation' for praise. 'This does feel theatrical,' he wrote, 'but in such a lucid and intelligent way.'
