Liam Neeson's son reacts to Pamela Anderson relationship rumors
Has Pamela Anderson "taken" Liam Neeson's heart? Andy Cohen, for one, seems convinced.
The "Naked Gun" actors made a joint appearance on "Watch What Happens Live" on Sunday, Aug. 3, and near the start of the episode, Cohen pointed out he would not ask the question on everyone's mind lately: "What's going on between the two of you?" Anderson laughed, while Neeson smiled and looked over in the actress' direction.
But, amid rumors that Neeson and Anderson's onscreen romance has extended off-screen, the Bravo host noted that all of Neeson's friends "are very much stanning this relationship." Anderson offered an "aww" in reaction to that statement, while Neeson reached out to hold her hand, though neither explicitly confirmed whether they're dating.
Cohen also addressed Neeson's son, Daniel Neeson, who was in the audience, after noting that those in the "Taken" actor's orbit approve of the alleged relationship. "Right, Danny?" Cohen asked Daniel, who smiled and confirmed, "Yes."
Neeson was married to Natasha Richardson from 1994 until she died in 2009 after a fall while skiing. They shared two sons, Micheál and Daniel.
During a "Pillow Talk" segment on "Watch What Happens Live," Anderson and Neeson were asked to name the sweetest thing about one another. She pointed to the fact that he's "so kind and generous," while he cited "her spirit" and noted, "She's a giggler." The actors also both revealed how many times they've been truly in love. "One-and-a-half," Anderson said, while Neeson responded, "I think two."
In response to Cohen's other questions, Neeson said sourdough bread is the best thing that Anderson has cooked for him, while Anderson revealed she "bought him an ax," without elaborating.
Neeson stars in the slapstick comedy "The Naked Gun" as Lt. Frank Drebin, while Anderson plays his love interest, Beth Davenport, a woman whose brother is mysteriously murdered. The two actors sparked romance buzz after cozying up at the film's London premiere.
They were directly questioned about the rumored romance in an interview on the "Today" show, with host Craig Melvin bluntly asking, "Are you two an item?" The duo played coy, though Neeson said that after he and Anderson met working on the movie, they "discovered we had a lovely, budding chemistry as two actors."
Neeson's son isn't the only person expressing support for the pair. After Anderson shared photos of herself and Neeson on Instagram to mark the release of "The Naked Gun," Richardson's sister Joely commented with a series of red heart emojis. Cohen, a close friend of Natasha Richardson's, also recently said on his radio show that a match between Anderson and Neeson "just works."
Anderson has had four husbands, including Tommy Lee and Kid Rock. During a game of "Plead the Fifth" on "Watch What Happens Live," where guests can choose one question not to answer, Anderson declined to rank her husbands from favorite to least favorite.
In the same segment, Anderson also reacted to Sylvester Stallone denying that he once asked her to be his "No. 1 girl" and offered her a condo and a Porsche, as she said in her 2023 documentary "Pamela, A Love Story." In response to Stallone's denial, the "Baywatch" star shot back, "How could you make that up? I mean, that was pretty specific."
After Cohen jokingly asked if Neeson had offered Anderson a Porsche, they both quipped, "Not yet."
