Netflix fans praise Pamela Anderson's sons for always defending their mum

Pamela Anderson's sons have won widespread praise following the release of the new Netflix documentary about her life.

The model, now 55, has two adult sons, Brandon, 26, and Dylan, 25, who she shares with ex-husband and Mötley Crüe frontman Tommy Lee. Watch the trailer for Pamela, A Love Story below:

The new Netflix documentary was released on 31 January, and its official synopsis reads: "In her own words, through personal video and diaries, Pamela Anderson shares the story of her rise to fame, rocky romances and infamous sex tape scandal."

In the documentary, Pamela's sons defended her in a number of ways - such as when they slammed the dramatisation of her sex tape scandal in the Disney+ miniseries Pam and Tommy.

Brandon, 26, said of the dramatisation: "Here she is, after another divorce, trying to move on with her life, trying to have some sort of normalcy, but then we hear about a TV show coming out about my parents and about the stolen tape.

"Why bring something up from 20 years ago, that you know f****d someone up?" he questioned. "The worst part of her life and making semi-comedy out of it. It didn't really make sense."

Reacting to the doc, one viewer praised: "Anyone who has been around Pamela Anderson knows she's super nice (as is her family). And quick-witted. And a good mom. And taken advantage of, and mistreated... on so many levels (see the documentary). And, Bobby (KR the Trumper) was a nope.

"Glad her sons are protecting her."

A second added: "If you have a chance, watch #PamelaALoveStory Pamela Anderson is such a strong woman and you can see how much love her sons have for her and her for them…"

"Pamela Anderson has good sons," wrote a third, while a fourth praised: "She had a lot of horrible things to contend with in her life, but to see how lovely her sons turned out & how much they adore her, leaves you thinking she's the luckiest girl in the world."

"Watching Pamela Anderson documentary which is incredible that woman is a icon," added a fifth. "I would like to see her career reignite as a result of this Netflix deal.

"Also I respect how her sons honour and protect their mother [sic]."

Meanwhile, some viewers couldn't help but draw comparisons between her sons and those of Britney Spears.

They even went as far as to hope that Britney's children - Preston, 16, and Jayden, 15 - would turn out just as supportive in the end.

One wrote: "Britney's sons could stand to learn a thing or two from Pamela Anderson's sons."

"Britney's boys should take a note from Pamela Anderson's sons," chimed a second. "Protect and appreciate your mother! Two extraordinary women!"

These comments come after Britney's sons distanced themselves from their mum and Jayden gave a tell-all interview about their troubled relationship to ITV last year.

Pamela, A Love Story is available to stream on Netflix now.
