Pamela Anderson has continued to rubbish the rumour mill, confirming that her relationship with actor Liam Neeson was very much ‘real’.
After working together on the set of The Naked Gun last year, Anderson, 58, and the Star Wars icon, 73, made headlines with their cosy press and red carpet displays.
It was later reported that the pair’s friendship had blossomed into something more, but social media critics weren't as convinced.
Some speculated whether the connection was being ‘played up’ to promote the cop comedy spoof—an idea Anderson, 58, has repeatedly denied.

In an interview with Andy Cohen on his SiriusXM show, Radio Andy, the Baywatch icon used the opportunity to further dismiss claims of her so-called 'fabricated relationship'.
"The vibes were real," she said, rejecting publicity stunt claims.
"I don't like the idea of doing that publicity. We don't do any publicity stunts. I mean, he doesn't do that kind of thing, and I don't do that kind of thing.
“You fall in love in love stories movies. You just do. He's such an amazing guy, but you know, it takes two to tangle, right?"
The mum-of-two went on to say that the Taken favourite has continued to be ‘supportive’ of her career, and that they now have a ‘healthy, loving friendship’.
“I really admire him,” she added to Cohen.
This isn’t the first time that Anderson has opened about the time spent with her former flame.
Speaking to PEOPLE last year, the icon said: that she and Neeson shacked up at his upstate New York home after completing work on The Naked Gun.
“I had my own room. Our assistants both came; even family stopped by,” she confessed.
On their ‘intimate break’ the pair went to a ‘tiny French restaurant’ where he introduced her as the ‘future Mrs Neeson’ and that they were tending ‘to a rosebush overgrown with mint’ in the garden.
Insisting the ‘feelings were real’, the former Playboy star stated: “I always was laughing when people thought: ‘Oh, that’s a publicity stunt. I’m like: 'A publicity stunt? This is real. We have real feelings'."
She added that they’d decided to go ‘separate ways to work on other films’, and that the whirlwind romance was akin to a Nancy Meyers flick.
Anderson has a plethora of film projects on the horizon, including Rosebush Pruning with Riley Keough and Callum Turner, and Place to Be, featuring Taika Waititi and Ellen Burstyn.
Meanwhile the Northern Irishman has Cold Storage with Stranger Things’ Joe Keery and the follow-up to Run All Nightin the works.
The Last Showgirl star said that she feels ‘very fortunate’ to have so many upcoming roles, claiming that she isn’t taking anything for granted.
“I feel like this is a second chance,” the actress added to WWD. “I don’t want any regrets. I’m going to leave it all in every film that I do.”
