Pamela Anderson has finally spilled the juicy details of her romance with Liam Neeson - and the present status of their relationship.
Anderson, 58, and Neeson, 73, ignited a flurry of rumors this summer with their cozy interactions while promoting their new reboot of The Naked Gun.
A source confirmed to Daily Mail in July that they had been dating 'for a while' after meeting on the set of their movie together.
Neeson had not been in a public relationship since 2009, when his wife Natasha Richardson died of a head injury after falling on a ski slope without a helmet.
Now Anderson has pulled the curtain back on her fling with the Taken star, and the 'intimate week' they spent together at his sprawling mansion in upstate New York.
She also revealed that she and Neeson are no longer an item romantically, although they remain friends and he has been supportive of the new highbrow turn she has taken in her professional life, via People.

'If you must know, Liam and I were romantically involved for a short while but only after we finished filming,' she said, indicating that during her stay at his country house she 'had my own room' and 'Our assistants both came; even family stopped by.'
Their escapades during their 'romantic lost week' included 'dinner at a tiny French restaurant where he introduced me as the "future Mrs. Neeson."'
She helped him garden, tending 'to a rosebush overgrown with mint,' and at one point a bathrobe-clad Neeson had to chase a bear off from his breakfast window.
After their weeklong sojourn in upstate New York, they 'went our separate ways to work on other films' but reunited for the media rounds for The Naked Gun.
Their dating rumors went into overdrive when they were seen gazing into each other's eyes, obviously besotted, at the movie's premiere in New York.
When the film opened in London, Anderson was seen cuddling up to Neeson and planting a kiss on his cheek, and while plugging the movie on Watch What Happens Live, she applied lip balm to him on camera, pouring fuel on the speculation.
She has now shared of the publicity whirlwind around their relationship that they were 'having fun,' with an equation 'a bit like a Nancy Meyers film.'
However she shrugged off the claims that they were engaged in a 'showmance,' saying: '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."'
Anderson made the disclosures in a new cover interview with People, in which she also discussed the new 'trajectory' her career has taken

Now, though, their brief blaze of romance has cooled into a platonic friendship, and she has said: 'I adore Liam, but we are better friends, in full honesty.'
She added: 'He is such a supporter of this new trajectory in my career and kindly tells me he is very proud of me. I’m sure we will always be in each other’s lives.'
Anderson has whirled through five marriages, including one to Motley Crue rocker Tommy Lee - with whom she starred in a sex tape that was stolen and made public - plus two to Paris Hilton's sex tape co-star Rick Salomon and one to Kid Rock.
Neeson on the other hand has only been married once, but was previously involved with a string of stars including Julia Roberts, Helen Mirren and Janice Dickinson.
Dickinson, who had an extramarital affair with Neeson while she was still with her second husband, once raved that the Schindler's List star had 'the biggest penis of any man alive,' in a 2006 interview with the New York Post.
'It was like an Evian bottle fell out of his pants,' she told Star in 2011. 'The earth shook. Oh my God, you don’t understand. I swallowed my tongue. I was so shocked. This was way before he was famous, too.'
