'Dear friend' of Liam Neeson's late wife reveals exactly what he said to him amid Pamela Anderson 'romance'

Andy Cohen, who was close friends with Natasha Richardson, has revealed what he said to Liam Neeson amid reports he's dating Pamela Anderson.

Taken star Neeson wed Richardson in 1994 and they remained married up until the actress' untimely passing in 2009.

The Parent Trap favorite died in a skiing accident at the age of 45, leaving behind Neeson and their two sons, Micheál and Daniel. Neeson reportedly hasn't dated since his wife's devastating death 16 years ago — until now.

He's rumoured to now be seeing his Naked Gun co-star Pamela Anderson, a union that's understandably sent the internet on fire.

"Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson being a couple in 2025 really wasn't in my plans but I love it very much," one person penned on Twitter.

"Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson dating is probably the best news of 2025," said another.

"I am so rooting for them," added a third. "After losing his wife tragically 16 years ago now, Liam is back in the saddle and with none other than the gorgeous and finely aged Pamela Anderson. These two would never have crossed my mind and lived in two separate worlds. This is my kind of love story."

Speaking on his SiriusXM show, Cohen said: "Natasha was a dear friend of mine and I'm gonna tell you something: I and all of the friends in this circle are very much stanning whatever this is."

Cohen went on to share what he said to Neeson at a Naked Gun premiere party he recently attended.

He recalled: "I go, 'Liam, she is an independent woman, just like Tash was. She loves to cook. She has her own thing going on. She has two boys. I mean, this just works, and you know, she is a formidable human being, Pamela Anderson. She really is.'"

Cohen also spoke of how Anderson has 'reclaimed and redefined herself'.

Neeson himself has echoed similar sentiments about his co-star, even going as far as saying that he was 'madly in love' with her.

"With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her. She's just terrific to work with," he told PEOPLE last year.

"I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with. She's going to be terrific in the film."

Cute alert!
