  Pamela Anderson originally met the A Star Is Born producer Jon Peters at the Playboy Mansion in the mid-1980s. They hit it off and started dating in 1988 and eventually moved in together in Los Angeles. They were reportedly together on and off from 1988 to 1990, with Peters even proposing to Anderson at one point. However, she turned Peters down due to their 22-year age difference and eventually split up for good in 1991.

  But, fast forward to 2020 and they ended up secretly marrying in a private ceremony in Malibu after a few months of dating. However, the marriage wasn’t legit since no marriage license was obtained and they called it off less than two weeks later, per CNN.

  In January 2023, he announced he’d be leaving her $10 million in his will, per People.

  In her memoir, Anderson talked about her relationship with heartthrob actor Scott Baio. The two met at the Playboy Mansion just before she was named Playboy‘s Playmate of the Month for February 1990. Anderson’s first-ever acting credit is a guest spot on Baio’s show, Charles in Charge.

  Per reports, the two eventually got engaged but broke things off before ever tying the knot.

  Before Anderson met Tommy Lee, she dated another rocker, this time Poison member Bret Michaels. The two started dating in 1993 and split in 1994 reportedly because Michaels wasn’t interested in monogamy. 

  “Once she got a little taste of that rock, she just couldn’t go back,” Michaels once joked to PR. “She got that bad boy thing and then she just couldn’t go back. She tried and tried, but never went back to the other side.”

  In 1998, they had an unfortunate reunion when Internet Entertainment Group (IEG) got a hold of their sex tape from when they were together, per Los Angeles Times. After back and forth in court, Michaels left victories and IEG was finally prohibited from sharing their video.

  Anderson and Tommy Lee had one of the most turbulent (and highly publicized) relationships of the 1990s, marrying each other in Feb 1995 after only knowing each other for four days.

  However, their whirlwind, fairytale-like romance began to crash down when their 1995 sex tape was released onto the internet. In an excerpt from her memoir obtained by People, she wrote, “My relationship with Tommy may have been the only time I was ever truly in love.” She added that the sex tape was detrimental, adding, “It ruined lives, starting with our relationship…”

  She later detailed the Mötley Crüe drummer’s jealousy issues. According to Anderson, he would trash her Baywatch trailer when he found out she had a love scene with former co-star David Chokachi, arrived on set in his Ferrari each day for “wife time,” and more. Anderson heartbreakingly wrote, “I thought that’s what love is.”

  The pair later welcomed two sons named Brandon Thomas, born in 1996, and Dylan Jagger, born in 1997.

  Anderson and Lee broke it off after a terrifying incident where Lee ended up being arrested for spousal abuse in 1998. Anderson said she was holding 7-week-old Dylan in her arms while Brandon played nearby. She was watching both of them when Lee walked up to her and said “‘I want my wife back.'” She told him to “grow up” and give her “some f— help around here … It’s not about you anymore.”

  The Baywatch star said he “ripped Brandon off me and threw me and Dylan into a wall.”

  She filed for divorce the next day to “protect her babies,” and the divorce was finalized a year later.

  However, the two rekindled their romance in 2008, with Lee revealing that “Pamela and the kids have moved in with me.” He said, “It’s awesome, man. It’s definitely working. You can tell on the kids’ faces – they’re happy when we’re together.”

  They split again in 2010 for the final time.

• Kelly Slater (1995, 1998-2000)

  Anderson had another very complicated relationship with former co-star Kelly Slater. She said in her memoir, per Yahoo, “I met Kelly Slater on the set of Baywatch. He was my big love actually. He was such a sweetheart to me, and so good to me. I dated Kelly all the time. I mean, Kelly and I were together between lots of boyfriends and lots of girlfriends for him too, but it wasn’t just me.”

  And here’s the thing: she was dating Slater when she was exchanging vows with Lee. She said to Metro, “I was dating Kelly Slater at the time and I was supposed to go see him in Florida and meet his family. My first phone call was to him to tell him I was married. He’s like, ‘What?!’ That was horrible.”

• Marcus Schenkenberg (2000-2001)

  Anderson and model Marcus Schenkenberg had a brief fling from 2000 to 2001, keeping a low profile throughout it all (even their short-lived engagement!) It’s said, per ABC News, that Anderson was attracted to how much he loved animals, once saving a bird from a toilet in Monaco.

• Kid Rock (2001-2003, 2006)

  Anderson then met Kid Rock backstage at a VH1 Divas Live tribute to Aretha Franklin in April 2001. They hit it off almost immediately, getting engaged soon after. However, she broke up with him in 2003, with Rock insinuating that Anderson didn’t want to move to Michigan and issues with the prenup, per InStyle.

  But fast forward three years and in July 2006, she announced they were marrying on a yacht near Saint-Tropez, France. Tragically, Anderson miscarried soon after their wedding and filed for divorce on Nov 2006.

• Laurence Hallier (2005-2010)

  Not much is known about Anderson and real estate tycoon Laurence Hallier’s relationship, despite being together on and off for five years. However, we know a lot about their messy fallout, because it involved not one, but two lawsuits. 

  Anderson claimed Hallier told her that if the development of the condos she planned on living in was delayed in any way, she would be given $1 million in cash. However, she never received said payment and sued so she could get that amount. Then, per Daily Mail, Hallier countersued for $22.5 million due to Anderson backing out on several appearances to publicize The Panorama Towers.

  Their legal battle was settled privately for an unknown amount.

• Rick Salomon (2007-2008, 2014)

  In 2007, Anderson met Paris Hilton’s ex-fling Rick Soloman, and there was an instant connection. They married in Oct 2007 at The Mirage in Las Vegas, but separated and annulled the marriage only two months later.

  However, Anderson and the poker player rekindled their romance almost exactly seven years later. They married again in Jan 2014 in Las Vegas, only to separate again less than a year later on Dec 13. 

  Anderson previously told W Magazine how she truly felt about her second marriage to Soloman. “I look back at pictures of myself when I was in this awful relationship, and I looked 20 years older,” she said. “I know it sounds like a cliché, but happiness has a lot to do with beauty. Calm, peacefulness and not-constant stress are very, very important to feeling beautiful.”

  Back in 2009, Pamela Anderon met electrician and surfer Jamie Padgett when she was at a trailer park, staying there while her house was being renovated. They traveled the world together with Anderson’s kids. However, they ended up splitting in Jan 2010.

• Julian Assange (2017)

  In early 2017, Anderson sparked dating rumors with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange after many visits to the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. 

  On her website, she defended Assange from the accusations against him. “My relationship with Julian – It’s no secret,” she wrote, per People. “He is one of my favorite people- and he might be the most famous, most politicized refugee of our time. Famous for being persecuted. Famous for being persecuted is not a position of power but a position of vulnerability. I am concerned.”

  “He is the strongest person I know but, living as he is, is very unhealthy, demeaning and inhumane,” she continued. “Julian is trying to free the world by educating it. It is a romantic struggle—I love him for this-”

  Details on how serious their relationship was, or how long it lasted, are still far and few in between. 

• Adil Rami (2017-2019)

  Anderson and French soccer player Adil Rami started dating in early 2017, keeping a low profile from the public eye. However, they broke up in June 2019, and Anderson seemed to hint at some serious issues with their relationship.

  She accused him of infidelity, physical abuse, and “living a double life.” Per Fox, Anderson published emails allegedly between her and Rami’s ex Sidonie Biémont that detailed the abuse. Apparently, Rami told Biémont, whom he shared two children with, that he and Anderson were just friends, and that he and Biémont were over to Anderson.

  Pamela Anderson and her bodyguard Dan Hayhurst​ ​married on Christmas Eve 2020 in her backyard after some time together. She gushed about him to Daily Mail, saying, “I’m exactly where I need to be — in the arms of a man who truly loves me.”

  However, Anderson reportedly called it quits in 2022 because she “fell out of love.”
