Pamela Anderson recently opened up about her brief marriage to Jon Peters during an interview on The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast. Anderson explained that the much-publicized 12-day marriage in January 2020 was not a real marriage, stating emphatically, “I never was married to Jon Peters.”
The actress, who has been a prominent figure in Hollywood for many years, clarified that while they have known each other since the 1980s, they never officially tied the knot. Anderson noted that they didn’t even file any legal paperwork for a marriage certificate, which casts doubt on the legitimacy of their relationship in terms of marriage.
Reflecting on the peculiar way Peters proposed, Anderson recalled how her son joked about Peters offering $20 million to have her marry him. She described it as a lighthearted moment, explaining, "We don’t take Jon seriously. Jon is a wonderful person. He’s very funny."
Anderson also addressed some misconceptions regarding her relationship history. She asserted that she has been married four times—not the six listed on her Wikipedia page. Her previous marriages include high-profile unions with musician Tommy Lee, whom she shares two sons with, and professional poker player Rick Salomon, with whom she experienced a tumultuous relationship that included annulments and remarriages.
In a candid moment, Anderson mentioned that her brief marriage to Salomon initially took place when he was struggling with substance abuse. She remarried him after he got sober, hoping for a fresh start, but things did not improve, leading to another separation.
Overall, Anderson’s remarks shed light on her life, relationships, and the misunderstandings that often accompany fame. While her marital history has attracted attention, she seems determined to clarify her narrative, emphasizing that despite the ups and downs, she has learned valuable lessons along the way.
