Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson are one Hollywood’s new (and most beloved) celebrity couples — and people can’t get enough of the pair.
Anderson and Neeson started dating while filming alongside one another in 2025’s The Naked Gun. Neeson plays Detective Frank Debrin Jr., while Anderson stars as his onscreen love interest, Beth Davenport. While the long-awaited sequel to the original film series that spanned 1988 to 1994 received a lot of interest, the relationship between its stars gained even more headlines.
According to Andy Cohen, a longtime friend of Neeson’s late wife, Natasha Richardson, friends of the former couple approve of the Taken star’s newfound romance.
“Natasha was a dear friend of mine,” he said during the July 30 broadcast of Sirius XM’s Radio Andy. “And I’m gonna tell you something, I and all of the friends in this circle, are very much stanning, whatever this is.”
Neeson and Richardson married in 1994 and were together until she unexpectedly died in 2009 at age 45 after suffering a head injury during a skiing accident. Anderson, for her part, has been married five times to four men, most recently to former bodyguard Dan Hayhurst. She shares two sons, Brandon Thomas Lee and Dylan Jagger Lee, with her ex husband, Tommy Lee.
On August 1, Anderson shared an Instagram post highlighting the film’s release on the same day, sparking comment from many of the pair’s Hollywood cohorts.

“As I was telling him at the premiere party, I go, ‘Liam, she is an independent woman just like Tash was,” Cohen said on July 30, adding that the costars share a lot of similarities. “She loves to cook. She has her own thing going on. She has two boys. This just works.”
He also had high praise for Anderson and what she has overcome. “She is a formidable human being … what she’s been through and how she kind of reclaimed herself and redefined herself,” Cohen added.
