Have you ever wondered why Pamela Anderson and Dean Cain couldn’t make it work? As Anderson is in the headlines thanks to her adorable romance with Liam Neeson, Cain is opening up for the first time about his short-lived love affair with the Baywatch star. Cain admitted that their love burned “hot and short” in the 1990s because he couldn’t satisfy her desires at the time.

Dean Cain couldn’t satisfy Pamela Anderson

Everyone wants to talk about Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson at the moment, but Dean Cain is spilling the tea about their romance from 30 years ago. Cain recently sat down for an interview with Variety. He talked about his career, his personal life, and even the sexual harassment he experienced. He also chatted about his short-lived love affair with Pamela Anderson. Cain revealed that the romance only lasted a few months because he couldn’t give her what she was looking for. Cain elaborated, telling the publication, “She wanted to be with the rock-star kind of guy, and that’s not me.”

Dean Cain and Pamela Anderson briefly dated in 1993. At the time, Cain and Anderson’s stars were both on the rise; hers for her role as CJ Parker in Baywatch and his for his work on Lois & Clark as Clark Kent. They ended the romance the same year. Cain insists there are no hard feelings there. In his recent interview, he insists he only has fond memories of her. Anderson has not responded to Cain’s admission.

Pamela Anderson dated a few rock stars

Dean Cain said Pamela Anderson wanted a rockstar. She found that, more than once, but none of that seemed to make her happy. Anderson has been married five times (although twice to the same person). All of those marriages ended in divorce.

After her brief romance with Cain, she famously married Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee. They were husband and wife from 1995 until 1998. She fell for Kid Rock, married Rick Salomon, a high-stakes poker player, twice, and said “I do” to a bodyguard after a whirlwind romance. Her most recent marriage ended in 2022 after just 13 months.

Since then, Pamela Anderson has shed the sex symbol image and the bad boy rock stars that went with it. She’s soft spoken and more subdued these days, making her pairing with Liam Neeson seem especially fitting. They appear to float together.

Dean Cain has never been married, although he has had high-profile romances since Andesron. He has not publicly revealed if he is currently seeing anyone.
