The former Baywatch star tied the knot with film producer Jon Peters in a private ceremony in Malibu in January 2020. The couple had been in a relationship since Anderson split from the French footballer Adil Rami in June 2019.
In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, the 52-year-old actor and model appeared to confirm that the marriage to Peters, 74, had broken down. She is reported to have said:
“We would be very grateful for your support as we take some time apart to re-evaluate what we want from life and from one another.
“Life is a journey and love is a process. With that universal truth in mind, we have mutually decided to put off the formalisation of our marriage certificate and put our faith in the process. Thank you for respecting our privacy.”
Pamela Anderson has been married five times, including marrying film producer Rick Salomon twice – once in 2007 and again in 2014. Her former spouses include famous names such as Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee and rock star Kid Rock. She has two children with Lee, named Brandon Thomas Lee and Dylan Jagger Lee.
Jon Peters has also been married five times, and had a high-profile personal and professional relationship with singer and actor Barbra Streisand. He has three children, a son and two daughters, from previous relationships.
Who takes the prize for shortest celebrity marriage?
Pamela Anderson’s 12-day marriage may seem like a record-breaker when it comes to short-lived celebrity nuptials, but it can actually be beaten by some distance.
The winner? Britney Spears, with her first marriage to childhood friend Jason Alexander, which lasted just 55 hours. The pair flew to Las Vegas in a private jet on New Year’s Eve in 2004 and impulsively tied the knot at the Little White Wedding Chapel. The marriage was quickly annulled, but the news nonetheless shocked the world as Spears was at the height of her fame at the time.
Other contenders for the title of shortest celebrity marriage include:
· Carmen Electra and Dennis Rodman – the actor and the basketball star also had an impulsive Las Vegas wedding back in 1998, which ended after just 9 days.
· Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries – just before Kim met Kanye, she was married to NBA star Kris Humphries. However, the high-profile relationship broke down after just two and a half months.
· Nicholas Cage and Lisa Marie Presley – Cage and Presley got hitched in 2002, but the marriage ended just a few months later. The Con Air actor went on to have another short-lived marriage, as in 2019 he split from new wife Erika Koike after just four days as newlyweds.
