As Pamela Anderson garners Oscar buzz for her role in Last Showgirl, the 57-year-old actress is candid about the shifting dynamics of her relationship with ex-husband Tommy Lee.
In a conversation with Andy Cohen on Radio Andy, which aired on 9 January, Anderson revealed that communication between her and Lee, 62, has dwindled. “We used to talk a lot more — not recently, unfortunately,” she shared. The former couple, who divorced in 1998 after three years of marriage, share two sons: Brandon, 27, and Dylan, 26. Despite the current distance, Anderson remains hopeful about their relationship: “I wish we did have a better rapport right now, but we’ll be okay eventually… It’s just kind of a moment right now.”
The actress highlighted that their family is entering a new chapter as their youngest son is now engaged, meaning she and Lee will eventually become grandparents together.
Anderson and Lee’s tumultuous relationship made headlines in the 1990s, with the leak of a private tape adding to their notoriety. In her 2023 memoir, Love, Pamela, Anderson described Lee as her “only true love.”
Since their split, Anderson’s personal life has seen its share of ups and downs. She married musician Kid Rock in 2006, though their union ended in divorce the following year. Her relationship with poker player Rick Salomon resulted in two marriages — first in 2007 and again in 2014, both ending in divorce. Anderson’s marriage to producer Jon Peters in 2020 famously lasted only 12 days. Later that year, she wed Dan Hayhurst, her former bodyguard, though they separated two years later.
Despite the challenges, Anderson remains optimistic about her evolving relationship with Lee as they navigate co-parenting and upcoming family milestones.
