Liam Neeson gushes over ‘gorgeous' Pamela Anderson
Neeson, 73, described Anderson as 'gorgeous' and praised her for a delightful mix of silliness and warmth that won him over instantly.
'We had never met before, and I remember thinking, 'Wow, she is stunning,'' Liam Neeson said, according to Page Six.
'But beyond that, she had this wonderful sense of silliness and just humanity about her. It put me at ease straight away.'
The pair's new relationship began to catch public attention after they co-starred in the upcoming action-comedy The Naked Gun .
Anderson, 58, admitted she was 'nervous' to meet Neeson on set. To break the ice, she brought along homemade treats including sourdough bread, cookies, and muffins.
'I brought sourdough bread to Liam and cookies and muffins,' Anderson shared. 'It kept me busy. Kept me out of trouble.' She added with a playful grin, 'It's a very special muffin recipe. Very good for you.'
Liam Neeson raved about her baking talents, calling the sourdough 'phenomenal' and noting that the muffins contained 'a lot of bran.' The culinary efforts made an impression on the Irish star.
The couple's connection grew stronger while filming in Canada, where they have been quietly exploring their new romance away from the Hollywood spotlight.
A source said that Liam Neeson enjoys the simple, wholesome lifestyle Pamela cultivates at home.
Their friendship turned romantic after months of growing closer. 'Getting close to him has been on her mind since she was cast,' an insider revealed.
'She's always found Liam attractive and interesting. He's Liam Neeson, after all.'
Though their romance is still 'in the early stages,' they have openly shown affection during their recent press tour.
The couple went public with their relationship earlier this week, sparking excitement among fans.
Their on-screen comedy, The Naked Gun, is expected to draw crowds when it releases in South Africa. And with their genuine connection heating up off-screen, it's sure to add an extra layer of allure.
Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson's story reminds us all that love can bloom at any age, with a little kindness, laughter, and home-baked muffins, and in this case, a sourdough worth raving about.

'Say it to my face': Herschelle Gibbs claps back at criticism
Retired Protea Herschelle Gibbs has clapped back at criticism of his outspoken social media posts as well as controversial past, which includes allegations of doping, match-fing and that 2010 bombshell memoir. The 51-year-old has often taken jabs at the South African cricket team, particularly captain Temba Bavuma. On his X account, Herschelle Gibbs courted controversy when he seemingly poked fun at International Cricket Council (ICC) Chairman Jay Shah's praise for the debut of a new four-day series tournament. The Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Series between England and India recently ended in a draw. 'You guys wanted test cricket to be 4 days', he posted alongside several laughing emojis. His post saw many irked cricket fans – particularly from India – bring up his controversial career, which included allegations of match-fixing and doping. 'Were you born?' Herschelle Gibbs clapped back at one X user. 'Did you even play international cricket?' he asked another. The 51-year-old's roasts became more personal. 'Shame, did your boyfriend leave you for another woman?' he asked one critic. To another, he shamelessly posted: 'Tell your mom to get off the street corners'. Meanwhile, in a video posted by sports betting agency 10Bet, Herschel Gibbs read out a series of 'mean tweets' about it. 'Next time, say it to my face', the caption read. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 10bet South Africa (@10betza) In 2010, Herschelle Gibbs released his bombshell autobiography To The Point, detailing his life in the limelight as a Protea player. In it, he detailed his sexcapades with dozens of cricket groupies. One particular 'group sex session' took place at Adelaide Hilton Hotel during the 1997/199 Proteas tour. He wrote: 'It was one fat party from mid-evening to the next afternoon. I enjoyed the company of let's say, more than one woman. 'The girls were really up for it .. You picked a girl up (in the hotel's bar), took her upstairs to your room, and afterwards both of you would go back downstairs and you'd go and chat to someone else. It was a phenomenal night.' Herschelle Gibbs' autobiography 'To The Point'. Of his Australian groupies, he said: 'It was like going shopping. From the first day, women were almost falling into our laps virtually every night. Australian women, I can tell you, are not afraid to speak their minds and make it crystal clear what they're after. Herschelle Gibbs' memoir also touched on his short stint in rehab over alcohol and drug abuse, and a six-month ban over his 2000 match-fixing scandal.

Coco speaks out on her fallout with Nozipho Ntshangase
Former The Mommy Club star Nozipho Ntshangase's stepdaughter, Coco, is trending after dropping explosive details about her strained relationship with her. Coco left tongues wagging after taking to Instagram to post a selfie with her new stepmother, Misokuhle. The 25 year old recently married her father, Zola Ntshangase in a stunning traditional and white wedding. On The Mommy Club , Nozipho opened up about how deeply hurt she was by Zola's decision to take a second wife. She shared that she didn't support the idea of a polygamous marriage and chose to walk away. Coco's post sparked harsh criticism from former Real Housewives of Durban (RHOD) star Ameigh Thompson, who appeared to suggest that you can't change a child you didn't birth. The remark didn't sit well with Coco, who has since released a statement addressing Thompson's comments. She further opened up about her complex relationship with her stepmother. Coco shared that she moved in with Nozipho in 2023, but their dynamic has since changed. 'Regarding my relationship with Mama (Nozipho), things have changed. The last time we spoke was when I told her I'll be attending the wedding, and after that, there was silence.' Coco stated their father didn't suddenly decide to marry again but they were misled, but now they know the truth. She hinted that certain details were hidden and implied that the whole story is not yet public knowledge. She believes that one day, her brothers will also speak out and share their side of the story. Coco said attending her father's wedding to Misokuhle was entirely their decision; no one forced them. She said they chose to attend the wedding because they genuinely wanted to support their father. 'We went because we love our father deeply and genuinely wanted to support hmi, during this time. It wasn't about choosing sides, it was about showing love to our parents, simply,' she said. DO YOU THINK COCO WAS WRONG FOR SHARING THE SELFIE?
