Pamela Anderson wishes she was on better terms with ex-husband Tommy Lee.

The actress and model appeared on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live on Thursday, January 9, where she opened up about her relationship with Lee, to whom she was married from 1995 to 1998.

“I mean, we used to talk a lot more,” said Anderson, 57. “Not recently, unfortunately, but you know, I wish we did have a better rapport right now.”

Anderson and Lee share two sons, Brandon Thomas, 28, and Dylan Jagger, 27. She added that with Dylan now engaged, she hopes the two will be on better terms going forward.

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee welcomed sons Brandon and Dylan before their 1998 split — and they’ve continued to prioritize their kids ever since. The former couple tied the knot in February 1995 following a whirlwind romance, and they became parents when Brandon was born in June of the following year. Their second child arrived […]

“My youngest son is engaged and we’re gonna have grandkids together,” she said. “It’ll be OK, eventually. It’s just kind of a moment right now.”

Anderson and Lee, 62, began dating in December 1995 and married just four days later in Cancún, Mexico. When they returned to the United States, Anderson moved in with Lee, whose home was being renovated at the time. An electrician who had been fired then stole a sex tape of the two, leading to a $10 million lawsuit to try and stop its dissemination. Lee admitted that the now-infamous ordeal put a strain on their relationship.

“Not being able to do anything … about [the tape] was adding so much frustration and stress to our relationship,” he said in a 2014 episode of 20/20. “It was just consuming us.”

In 1998, Lee was arrested for felony spousal battery and was sentenced to six months in jail as Anderson filed for divorce. She called her divorce the “hardest, lowest, most difficult point of my life,” in her 2023 memoir, Love, Pamela.

Tommy Lee and Brittany Furlan’s relationship started in a very modern way: The Mötley Crüe drummer followed the social media star on Instagram, they arranged to meet and quickly fell for each other. The couple, who have a nearly 24-year age difference, were first spotted together in June 2017 when they made out and got […]

Anderson and Lee briefly reunited after Lee’s release, but the relationship did not last.

In the time since, Anderson has been married four additional times. She and Kid Rock tied the knot in 2006 before getting divorced just a year later. She was then married to professional poker player Rick Salomon twice, from 2007 to 2008 when they had their marriage annulled, then from 2014 to 2015. Anderson married her bodyguard Dan Hayhurst in 2020 and they divorced in 2022.

As for Lee, the Mötley Crüe drummer married actress Brittany Furlan in 2019.

Anderson further explained her feelings toward Lee in her memoir, writing about the importance of having him as a coparent.

“Tommy is the father of my kids and I’m forever grateful,” she wrote. “My relationship with Tommy may have been the only time I was ever in love.”
