With new Netflix documentary Pamela, A Love Story, putting her life into the spotlight once more, we share how many children Pamela Anderson has with ex-husband Tommy Lee.
Pamela Anderson has been married a number of times, but no union has been more reported on than that of her relationship with Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee. Most recently the tale of their leaked sex tape and tumultuous life together was dramatised in 2022 Hulu series Pam and Tommy. But the series drew some controversy after it was revealed that Pamela did not give permission for the series to go ahead.
Taking back control of her narrative in 2023, Pam has released an all new Netflix special - giving her side to the story. Featuring interviews with the Baywatch star herself, plus friends and family, it aims to paints an accurate picture of the pin-up: present and past. A mother as well as an actress, we've shared how many children Pamela Anderson has, who viewers might recognise as featuring in the documentary special.
How many children does Pamela Anderson have with Tommy Lee?
Pamela Anderson has two children in total - two sons named Brandon and Dylan, who she shares with ex-husband Tommy Lee. Brandon is the eldest by one year, with Dylan arriving not long after his brother.
Pamela gave birth to her two sons during her three year marriage to Tommy Lee. "Tommy is the father of my kids and I'm forever grateful," Pamela writes in her new memoir Love, Pamela.
Now in their late twenties, Pamela's sons are all grown up, but it appears they remain close and supportive of their mum. Brandan and Dylan both appeared at the premiere of Anderson's new Netflix documentary Pamela, A Love Story in late January 2023.
It's no secret that Pamela loves her children, with the Baywatch actress openly crediting her two boys with keeping her going after she and Tommy divorced in May 1998. In February of the same year, Tommy allegedly attacked and kicked Pamela several times whilst she was holding their youngest son Dylan. The actress called the police and Tommy was later charged with spousal abuse, being sentenced to six months in prison.
"They saved me," writes the mum-of-two in her memoir. "I don't want to put that on my kids but having children changed everything. I've loved every moment. Brandon and Dylan are true miracles, considering their gene pool. They have been through so much, yet they are not full of holes."
Like their parents, Brandon and Dylan have both established careers in the entertainment industry. Though both in the spotlight, Pamela has shared how the two differ personality-wise:
"Brandon is really creative and is this fiery kind of kid," she told People. "Dylan is more introspective and more Zen. It’s a good team."
