Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson sparked dating rumours during their recent press tour for The Naked Gun, and now, it looks like the speculation may be true.
Their latest love story played out on Bravo host (and close friend of Liam Neeson) Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live and to say we’re obsessed, is an understatement.
Asking Pamela about her skincare brand, Sonsie, Cohen opened up the floor to a live demonstration courtesy of Liam – who offered up his lips without so much as a word from his co-star.
The moment was the first of many sweet exchanges between the two, but it was a cross to Liam’s son, Danny, that told the audience everything they wanted to know: these two are (at the very least) dating.
“I do just want to say, as a very old friend of yours, all of your friends are very much stanning this relationship, as the kids say,” Cohen said, before turning to Liam’s son in the audience to ask: “Right, Danny?”
A faint, but noticeable “yes” was heard as Danny flashed the camera with a smile. “Yes, OK, very good,” Cohen continued.
Below, everything we know about the pair’s newly minted relationship.
Pamela Anderson & Liam Neeson: How The Romance Started
Striking up a romantic relationship while filming comedy reboot, The Naked Gun, Pamela Anderson, 58, and Liam Neeson, 73, might be in “the early stages”, per People. But, “It’s sincere, and it’s clear they’re smitten with each other.”
While neither of the actors have responded to press calls for comment, the writing was very much on the wall during their multiple appearances and interviews in the lead up to the film’s release. But, according to Us Weekly, the sparks were flying before filming even began.
“I thought, oh my god, she is so easy on the eyes,” Neeson said when asked about his first impressions of Anderson. “I was really taken with your ‘thereness.’ You were absolutely there. There was no [brushing me off], I knew we had kind of a chemistry from very early on,” he recalled.
Anderson agreed, admitting there was “chemistry right away,” adding that she was “curious where it was going to take us in the film.”
Now, it’s plain to see where it took them, with the couple reportedly confirming their status following a PDA-packed press tour that even earned the tick of approval from those closest to them.
Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson made their unofficial red carpet debut as a couple at The Naked Gun’s New York premiere on July 28 – alongside their adult children. Anderson’s sons Dylan, 27, and Brandon, 29, posed alongside Neeson’s sons Daniel, 28, and Micheál, 30.
While falling in love is always be something to celebrate, in this case, it’s especially so. Neeson has largely remained absent from the dating scene since the death of his wife, actress Natasha Richardson in 2009. Passing away at the age of 45, she suffered an epidural hematoma, two days after she hit her head during a skiing lesson in Quebec, Canada.
Since her tragic passing, Neeson has only publically dated British publicist, Freya St Johnston, however, the pair broke up after two years together.
Anderson, who shares her sons with ex Tommy Lee, has had several high-profile, though short lived romances over the years, but was very much single going into her latest role.
What Neeson & Anderson Have Said About Each Other
Earlier in July, Anderson spoke openly about her admiration for the Love Actually actor, telling Entertainment Weekly, “I think I have a friend forever in Liam,” before adding, “We definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving. He’s a good guy.”
As for Neeson, he’s been equally – if not more so – praising of his co-star, telling People back in October 2024: “With Pamela, first off, I’m madly in love with her. She’s just terrific to work with.”
“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.”
Responding to the glowing review, Anderson mirrored her co-star’s sentiment to the publication, describing him as a “perfect gentleman.”
“He brings out the best in you… with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolutely honour to work with him. He sincerely looked after me – wrapped his coat around me when I was cold.
“I am in awe of him, his experience, and word ethic. I soaked him in like a sponge,” she revealed.
If recent appearances are any indication, the couple’s connection is more than just press-tour flirtation. Bonding over what Anderson describes as a “love of literature and a good laugh,” the pair seem genuinely well-matched – and audiences (us included) seem to be loving it, too.
