Natasha Richardson’s sister has been receiving a lot of attention after she commented on a photo of Liam Neeson alongside Pamela Anderson. Neeson, who plays the lead in the latest installment of the Naked Gun series, has appeared alongside Anderson as part of the film’s promotional efforts. Despite the comedy’s success at the box office, fans seem more intrigued by the potential off-screen chemistry between the co-stars.
In the movie, Neeson and Anderson’s characters develop a romantic relationship, fueling rumors that the actors might be dating in real life. The speculation only intensified after Anderson posted a picture with Neeson on Instagram, promoting the film and sparking admiration from fans who believe they make a charming pair.
“The Naked Gun is finally in theatres! Bring your friends, family, lovers… whoever… just go and have a laugh… it’s good for you! I’ll see you there,” Anderson wrote as the caption alongside an image of her and Neeson.
Liam Neeson, who suffered the tragic loss of his wife Natasha Richardson in 2009 after a skiing accident, has now received what seems to be public support from Richardson’s sister, Joely Richardson, for this potential new relationship. Joely commented with seven heart emojis on Anderson’s post.
The actors have not provided a definitive answer about their relationship status, leading to further curiosity among fans. During an appearance on the TODAY show on July 31, host Craig Melvin inquired about their relationship, leaving audience members with even more questions.
Melvin asked: “What’s the deal here? You’re both single right now. There’s clearly chemistry on display throughout this film. Are you two an item?”
Although Neeson seemed taken aback, exclaiming “Craig!”, and Anderson claimed not to understand the question, the duo did share some insight into their on-set dynamics.
Neeson explained: “I had never met Pamela before. We met on set. And we discovered we had a lovely, budding chemistry — as two actors. It’s like, ‘Oh, this is nice. Let’s not mold this. Let’s just let it breathe. And that’s what we did.”
So, it seems fans will have to continue speculating about the nature of their relationship until Neeson and Anderson decide to clarify the rumors.
