Liam Neeson has made headlines with his heartfelt declaration of being “madly in love” with his co-star Pamela Anderson. The 72-year-old actor, known for his work in iconic films, opened up about his feelings during an interview with People. This revelation comes after Neeson had previously declared that he was stepping away from the dating scene.
While promoting the upcoming reboot of “The Naked Gun,” Neeson couldn’t help but express his admiration for Anderson, who is 57. He described her as an exceptional collaborator, stating, “With Pamela, first off, I’m madly in love with her. She’s terrific to work with.” Neeson praised her work ethic, noting that she does not have a “huge ego” and is simply focused on delivering her best.
Their on-screen chemistry is palpable, with Neeson sharing that Anderson’s humor and approachability make her a joy to work with. He has high hopes for her performance in the film, calling her “funny and so easy to work with.”
In a reciprocal gesture, Anderson sang praises about Neeson as well. She referred to him as “the perfect gentleman” with a humble demeanor. In her own words, “He brings out the best in you… with respect, kindness and depth of experience.” She recollected a moment on set that showcased his kindness when he wrapped his coat around her to keep her warm.
Despite their affection for one another, Neeson’s feelings appear to be platonic. In a recent interview with People, he reiterated that he has moved on from the dating world following the tragic death of his wife, Natasha Richardson, in 2009. The couple was married for 15 years until her untimely passing.
Since then, Neeson briefly dated public relations executive Freya St. Johnston for two years but has not publicly pursued any romantic relationship since then.
Meanwhile, Pamela Anderson is currently married to her bodyguard, Dan Hayhurst, having tied the knot on Christmas Eve in 2021. The actress has had several marriages throughout her life, including a brief marriage to Tommy Lee, the co-founder of Mötley Crüe, with whom she shares two sons. Their whirlwind romance began in 1995 but ended in divorce in 1998. Anderson has walked down the aisle multiple times since then, including marriages to Kid Rock and Rick Solomon.
In her 2023 memoir, “Love, Pamela,” Anderson reflected on her past relationships, revealing that she was only “ever truly in love” with Lee. As fans eagerly await the release of “The Naked Gun,” the camaraderie between Neeson and Anderson continues to capture attention, despite their declarations of being off the dating market.
