A Hollywood actress was left on the brink of tears when discussing Liam Neeson's rumoured relationship with Pamela Anderson in a new interview.

Jamie Lee Curtis became emotional when talking about the actors who have been romantically linked while promoting their new film The Naked Gun this summer.

The Freakier Friday actress, 66, said that it was nice they had found each other after both suffering 'hardship' in life - including Liam, 73, losing his wife Natasha Richardson following a skiing accident back in 2009.

She told VT this week: 'If love has found its way into that relationship then God bless them both leave them the f**k alone and let them like each other.

'Because both of them have had hardship, and they're both beautiful human beings.'

She then paused as her eyes filled with tears and added: 'It makes me cry!'

Jamie went on: 'If they actually have found an intimate love with each other, we should all go to bed tonight feeling better.'

She also praised Pamela who she worked on in the film The Last Showgirl as well as saying that Liam had suffered an 'unimaginable loss so young' when Natasha died. 

Just last week Pamela, 58, revealed how she bonded with her rumoured new boyfriend.

The Playboy veteran impressed Liam by bringing homemade sourdough bread and muffins to The Naked Gun set.

Pamela is best known for her sexy role on Baywatch but she is also an accomplished chef with a cookbook to her name: Her plant-based I Love You: Recipes From The Heart was nominated for a 2025 James Beard Award.

The pair worked together for the first time on the action comedy - a revival of the franchise which originally starred Leslie Nielsen - and Pamela admitted she was nervous when they first met.

But they forged a close friendship and she was soon bringing him baked goods to snack on during breaks.

During a SiriusXM Town Hall event in New York City last Wednesday, Pamela said: '[I was] nervous to meet [Liam], of course and you're always nervous the first day on the set...

'I brought sourdough bread to Liam and cookies and muffins and it kept me busy. Kept me outta trouble... It's a very special [muffin] recipe. It's very good for you. Let's just say that.'

Liam added that Pamela's sourdough was 'phenomenal' and the muffins featured 'a lot of bran'.

During the event, Liam admitted he was charmed by Pamela from the moment they first met. 

He said: 'Well, you know, we had never met before and I remember thinking: 'Wow, she is gorgeous' but she had this wonderful sense of silliness and just humanity about her.

'I don't want to blow her head up, but it was like I just felt an ease with her, you know, and we discovered a silliness with each other, which was terrific, you know?'

The pair bonded on set and their close relationship has sparked rumours they are more than just friends. 

Daily Mail reported they have been spending time together at Pamela's home in Canada after bonding over her love of gardening and baking.

A source told DailyMail.com: 'Pam is very drawn to Liam because he is totally open to her way of thinking and living, and especially her approach to fame, which is impressive.

'She has been telling friends he is smitten and does a lot of sweet things for her, like sending her flowers, and spending time with her sons and dogs.'

'Pam cooks and gardens at home... it's wholesome and appealing and very un-Hollywood and Liam loves that. He actually gets involved.'

This came after Neeson said several months ago that he was 'in love' with Anderson.

The two have been in a romance 'for a while', a source confirmed, with 'sparks' first flying when they filmed their Naked Gun movie in May 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia.

The lovebirds have been kissing on the red carpet while promoting the high-profile comedy in New York City and London.

Last Monday evening at their New York premiere, Anderson suggested they were an item when she went in for a kiss on Neeson's lips before she pulled back during their joint ET interview. 

And they both talked to Extra: Pamela said of building their relationship, 'We just like each other.' Liam added, 'It just grew naturally. We didn't force it, just allowed it to grow.'

She also wrote on Instagram, 'Love is in the air.' The full post read: 'A beautiful evening at the NYC Naked Gun premiere… thank you to everyone who came out to laugh with us… love is in the air.'

Daily Mail reached out to Anderson's and Neeson's representatives for comment.

Eyebrows were raised in October 2024 when Neeson said he loved the former Playboy model. 

He told People: 'With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her. She's just terrific to work with. 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.'

Anderson said that Neeson is 'the perfect gentleman' and he 'brings out the best in you … with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honor to work with him.'

And she told EW: 'We definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving. He's a good guy.'
