Liam Neeson, 73, and Pamela Anderson, 58, are reportedly in the early stages of a budding romance after meeting on the set of their new comedy, The Naked Gun. According to a source, the pair are "smitten" with each other and "enjoying each other's company".
Adding fuel to the romance rumors, Neeson has apparently been spending time with Anderson and her sons, Brandon Thomas Lee, 29, and Dylan Jagger Lee, 27, at her home in Canada. Sources indicate that Neeson has won the approval of Anderson's sons, who "love seeing her happy" and "think Liam is great". Anderson shares her sons with her ex-husband, Tommy Lee.
The actors' families joined them at the New York City premiere of The Naked Gun on July 28, making it a family affair. Neeson was accompanied by his sons, Micheál, 30, and Daniel, 28, whom he shared with his late wife, Natasha Richardson.
Neeson has been vocal about his admiration for Anderson. In October 2024, he told People that he was "madly in love with her" and praised her work ethic and humor. Anderson has also spoken highly of Neeson, calling him "the perfect gentleman" who "brings out the best in you… with respect, kindness, and depth of experience". She also mentioned that they bonded over a shared "love of literature and a good laugh".
During an appearance on the Today show, when directly asked about the nature of their relationship, Neeson responded, "We met on set. And we discovered we had a lovely, budding chemistry—as two actors". Anderson playfully teased, "I don't understand the question," adding to the speculation. Neeson added, "It's like, 'Oh, this is nice. Let's not mold this. Let's just let it breathe, and that's what we did".
The Naked Gun, scheduled to be released on August 1, stars Neeson as Detective Frank Drebin Jr., the son of Leslie Nielsen's character from the original films. Anderson plays his love interest, Beth.
While neither Anderson nor Neeson have officially confirmed a romantic relationship, sources claim they had immediate chemistry on set, and their friendship has naturally evolved. An insider told Us Weekly that "They are learning how to navigate it together. They are both shy and have tried to stay private, but the spark between them is obvious".
Anderson, who also holds American citizenship, has two sons, Brandon Thomas (born in 1996) and Dylan Jagger (born in 1997), from her marriage to Tommy Lee. Both sons have followed in their parents' footsteps, with Brandon pursuing acting and producing, and Dylan working as a model and musician.
Neeson was married to actress Natasha Richardson from 1994 until her tragic death in 2009 following a skiing accident. They have two sons, Micheál and Daniel.
The alleged couple have reportedly been spending time together at Anderson's home in Canada, where she enjoys cooking and gardening. A source told DailyMail.com that "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".
