Pamela Anderson Seen with Handsome Grown-up Son & Praised for Raising 'Grounded' Men Who Are ‘Never in Trouble'
Pamela Anderson made a rare appearance with her son Brandon Lee at this year's New York Fashion Week. The actress was praised for her beauty, and fans loved seeing the close-knit relationship she shared with her son.
Pamela Anderson is an actress known for her iconic role in "Baywatch" and her modeling days for Playboy Magazine. She was an A-list star in the 90s and got even more famous after her whirlwind romance with the Mötley Crüe rocker Tommy Lee.

Anderson and Lee met on New Year's Eve in 1994 at a club called Sanctuary. Lee was there celebrating with his friends when a waitress brought him a drink that Anderson sent him.
The rockstar was told that the actress was one of the club's owners, but what shocked him the most was how he had not realized that Anderson had been in the club the entire time. He looked at her and noticed her all-white outfit, perfect shade of blonde hair, and beautiful smile.

Lee first thanked her for the drink with a wink and smile. After gulping the drink, he grabbed another bottle of champagne and walked up to Anderson to introduce himself. From that night, the two spent each day together.
The rockstar said being with her was the happiest he had felt. He would spend all day in his room while she was at work, patiently waiting for her to return and make everything better.

Lee hit rock bottom when Anderson suffered a miscarriage, but ten days after his birthday, she told him they were expecting again. "I couldn't have been happier, dude," he gushed.
The two went on to have two sons together, Brandon and Dylan. They tied the knot in 1995, but their marriage ended in 1998. Anderson confessed that her break up with Lee was one the most difficult times of her life.

Lee was in jail at this time, but the actress said he wrote her every day; however, it was heartbreaking that she could not see or be with someone she loved deeply.

Seventeen years after their divorce, Anderson still said Lee was the love of her life. She added that their connection was love at first sight, so strong that she married him after only four days of knowing him.

She revealed that she had her kid's basketball games scheduled into her film contracts and had no nannies. Anderson might have been struggling with the end of her and Lee's relationship, but her sons kept her going and taught her to take good care of herself.
The actress opened up about this journey, revealing that motherhood taught her how to look after herself, whether by being aware of her breathing to get through a tough day, healthy eating, meditation, or prayer.

Anderson loved the days when she and her sons would cook together and watch RuPaul's Drag Race. She even had a full circle moment when she was invited to be one of the celebrity guest hosts on the show.
The "Baywatch" star did not have the most stable life, but becoming a mother kept her grounded and gave her a quiet life. Even though she was still surrounded by an outgoing, artistic group of people, she could live out different parts of herself.

She often blamed herself and Lee for not trying harder to make their relationship work for their children, but all of that went out the window when she saw how they had grown to embrace themselves and their talents.
