Pamela Anderson is officially dating Liam Neeson, Daily Mail has learned.
The two have been in a romance ‘for a while’, source confirmed, with ‘sparks’ first flying when they filmed their Naked Gun movie in May 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia.
The May/December lovebirds – Pamela is 58 and Liam is 73 – have been kissing on the red carpet while promoting the high-profile comedy in New York City and London.
‘Pam is very drawn to Liam because he is totally open to her way of thinking and living, and especially her approach to fame, which is impressive,’ a source tells Daily Mail.
‘She has been telling friends he is smitten and does a lot of sweet things for her, like sending her flowers, and spending time with her sons and dogs.’
The insider has noted they’ve managed to keep the long-distance romance private by spending time at her house in Canada.
‘Pam cooks and gardens at her home, it’s wholesome and appealing and very un-Hollywood and Liam loves that, he actually gets involved,’ said the insider.

Daily Mail has reached out to Anderson’s and Neeson’s representatives for comment.
On Monday evening at their New York premiere, Anderson suggested they were an item when she went in for a kiss on Neeson’s lips before she pulled back during their joint ET interview.
She also wrote on Instagram, ‘Love is in the air.’ The full post read: ‘A beautiful evening at the NYC Naked Gun premiere… thank you to everyone who came out to laugh with us… love is in the air.’
Eyebrows were raised in October 2024 when Neeson said he loved the former Playboy model.
He told People: ‘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.’
Anderson said that Neeson is ‘the perfect gentleman’ and he ‘brings out the best in you … with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honor to work with him.’
And she told EW: ‘We definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving. He’s a good guy.’
This comes after Neeson has joked his favorite part of The Naked Gun was filming ‘the sex scenes’ with Anderson.

They can’t keep their hands off each other even in the film’s poster
The actor stars as Frank Drebin Jr. opposite Anderson as nightclub singer Beth in the upcoming comedy reboot, and Neeson has now teased he particularly enjoyed shooting their love scenes, which were made with the help of an intimacy coordinator.
The Sun newspaper reports Liam joked the best bit of the shoot was ‘the sex scenes’, and he added of the intimacy coordinator: ‘I’d never had one before. But she was in the background. There was no kind of: “Ok! Excuse me!”‘
The publication went on to report Liam claimed the intimacy coordinator threw her hands in the air and exclaimed: ‘I can’t take this! This is too hot for me. I’m going for coffee.’
In The Naked Gun – which is a new take on the original Leslie Nielsen 1988 comedy movie – Detective Frank Drebin Jr. (Neeson) takes on his first big case, determined to solve a high-profile murder and save the police department from closure.
Following in his father’s hilariously clumsy footsteps, he stumbles through outrageous situations while trying to solve the mystery.
Neeson recently said he didn’t want to ’emulate’ Nielsen in the new film, which was directed by Akiva Schaffer and hits screens on August 1.
He told Empire magazine: ‘I wouldn’t say nerve-wracking, but every day I would go up to Akiva after we wrapped and say, ‘How was it?’ Because I just didn’t know.

‘I did not want to emulate the wonderful Leslie Nielsen, but the only thing I grabbed from him, was, ‘Be serious. Don’t try to be funny. Just stick to being a serious cop who is a bit of a doofus.’
The Taken actor also admitted he wasn’t sure if he was funny enough for The Naked Gun – which also stars Paul Walter Hauser and Danny Huston.
Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Neeson said: ‘During the whole shoot – I’m being very honest – I still did not know, when we wrapped at the end of each working day, whether it was working for me.
‘Pamela, Paul, Danny, everybody else, I thought, were very funny. I just couldn’t put a verdict on myself, on my own performance.
‘I’d always ask Akiva, ‘Are you sure it’s working?’ That continued from day one till we finished.’
