Pamela Anderson Finds ‘Pam & Tommy’ Series ‘Very Painful,’ Source Says
]
The upcoming Hulu series Pam & Tommy has brought up some very painful feelings.
“The upcoming Pam & Tommy Hulu series has been very painful for Pamela Anderson and for anyone that loves her,” the source tells ET. “It is shocking that this series is allowed to happen without her approval.”
Anderson’s marriage to Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee is being dubbed as “The greatest love story ever sold.” The series premieres with the first three episodes on Wednesday, Feb. 2, with new episodes streaming weekly on Hulu. An extended trailer dropped earlier this month, showing another side of Anderson and Lee’s sex tape scandal and the intense roller-coaster ride the then-couple went through following the leak of their infamous sex tape.
The actress and rock star’s budding relationship instantly became tabloid fodder, and amplified after they got married in Mexico after dating for less than a week. A source tells ET that Anderson, who shares sons Brandon and Dylan with Lee, says she has no regrets about her life, save for one dark moment.
“Pamela has no regrets about her life,” the source said, “but the only thing she would probably erase is this burglary. She feels so violated to this day. It brings back a very painful time for her.”
In the latest trailer, former employee Rand Gauthier (played by Seth Rogen) and his friend, Uncle Miltie (Nick Offerman) concoct a plan to steal a giant safe at Anderson and Lee’s home. The safe so happened to store the sex tape the couple made on their honeymoon in 1995. Gauthier and Miltie try to sell the tape, and they ultimately find success on the internet despite being in its infant stages. The trailer later cuts to Anderson wearing her trademark red swimsuit while on the set of Baywatch, stumbling upon the show’s crew huddling over a TV and watching her and Tommy’s most intimate moment on tape.

Anderson, portrayed by Lily James, is in utter shock. But Lee? Not so much. Lee, portrayed by Sebastian Stan, can’t figure out why Anderson’s hysterical, and it’s a sentiment Lee still shares to this day, according to the source.
“Tommy feels fine about the series coming out and is excited to see it,” the source tells ET. “He still doesn’t understand how this incident impacts Pamela differently from himself.”
While Lee has more than given his stamp of approval to the series (Lee told ET he has no problem with Stan portraying him), the same cannot be said of Anderson, who is in the midst of divorcing her fourth husband. In fact, she appears to have wanted to be so far removed from the project, James’ efforts to reach Anderson went unanswered.
James recently revealed she attempted to contact Anderson about the project, to no avail.
“I was really hopeful that she would be involved. I wish it had been different,” James told Net-a-Porter’s Porter for its cover story. “My sole intention was to take care of the story and to play Pamela authentically.”

Pamela Anderson Calls It Quits With Fourth Husband Dan Hayhurst After 1 Year of Marriage

Pamela Anderson and husband Dan Hayhurst are calling it quits, this according to multiple reports.
Rolling Stone is also reporting that the Baywatch star is filing for divorce in her native Canada. Anderson and Hayhurst have been living in her Vancouver Island home since tying the knot there on Christmas Eve 2020. At the time, the actress told The Daily Mail that Hayhurst was exactly where she needed to be – “in the arms of a man who truly loves me.”
Anderson told The Daily Mail that the pair fell in love while in lockdown due to COVID-19. She revealed that a local pastor performed the ceremony. Anderson and Hayhurst exchanged traditional vows, and the actress’ bouquet included a blue hydrangea, olive branch, roses, baby’s breath, eucalyptus, an orchid and a pine bough.
There were no guests at the ceremony due to the pandemic, which Anderson said she was OK with because “we prefer to be ourselves.” Following the ceremony, the couple enjoyed a two-tiered, homemade vegan cake.
Prior to Hayhurst, Anderson was previously married to Tommy Lee, Kid Rock and Rick Salomon. In February 2020, Anderson had an intimate wedding ceremony with Jon Peters, but they split up 12 days later. The couple never filed the legal paperwork for their marriage certificate, Anderson later confirmed.
Anderson’s marriage to the Mötley Crüe drummer is the subject of a new Hulu series, Pam & Tommy. The series, being dubbed as “The greatest love story ever sold,” premieres with the first three episodes on Wednesday, Feb. 2, with new episodes streaming weekly on Hulu.
Back in May 2020, Anderson told The New York Times that she “absolutely” hoped to tie the knot one more time in her life. “Just one more time. Just one more time, please, God,” she said. “One more time only. Only!”

Pamela Anderson and her fourth husband, Dan Hayhurst, grew apart while living together during the pandemic, a source tells ET.
News broke on Thursday that Anderson and Hayhurst, her former bodyguard, were splitting after one year of marriage. A rep for 54-year-old Anderson confirms the breakup, telling ET in a statement, “Pamela Anderson and Dan Hayhurst are divorcing. Pamela is filing for divorce in Canada.”
Meanwhile, a source tells ET that Anderson and Hayhurst quarantining together definitely put a strain on their marriage.
“Pamela and Dan grew apart after living together during the pandemic,” the source says. “Pamela started to learn everything about Dan, for better and for worse. She fell out of love and Dan was not the guy she previously thought he was.”
Prior to Hayhurst, Anderson was previously married to Tommy Lee – with whom she shares sons Brandon and Dylan with – Kid Rock and Rick Salomon.
“Pamela is a natural romantic and always has the best intentions,” our source shares. “Her character shows in everything she does. Pamela is a human rights, animal rights and public health advocate. She goes to town hall meetings in the town she lives in in Canada to make sure everyone is safe and taken care of. She genuinely cares for others, and this is apparent in every aspect of her life, including her relationship with Dan.”
Anderson and Hayhurst had been living in her Vancouver Island home since getting married there in an intimate ceremony on Christmas Eve 2020. She told the Daily Mail last January that she and Hayhurst met each other at the start of the lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic and were never apart since.
“This one year together has felt like seven – like dog years,” Anderson said at the time, adding that she and Hayhurst were a “natural fit.” “I’m in love. We were married Christmas Eve with both our families’ blessing, everyone we know is happy for us.”
