Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee welcomed sons Brandon and Dylan before their 1998 split — and they’ve continued to prioritize their kids ever since.
The former couple tied the knot in February 1995 following a whirlwind romance, and they became parents when Brandon was born in June of the following year. Their second child arrived in December 1997.
Brandon and Dylan have gone on to follow their parents’ footsteps in the entertainment industry. Brandon starred on Hills: New Beginnings and Dylan is a musician.
“I like to kind of pave [my] own path,” Dylan exclusively told Us Weekly in May 2020. “I guarantee if we mess up, [my] family [would be] like, ‘You gotta do this.’ But other than that, I feel like we do a pretty good job of navigating our way.”
Dylan gushed that his mom is “always playing” his band Midnight Kids’ songs. “I remember she was, like, at the nail salon and heard Midnight Kids playing in the nail salon and she was like, ‘What the f–k?’ Like, ‘That’s crazy!’” he recalled. “She sent me a video. She loves it.”

“This year has been a wild one and I’m so grateful and proud of all you are,” Anderson wrote via her Instagram Story in celebration of Dylan’s 26th birthday. “A romantic soul, courageous, patient and kind … Blessed with a unique beauty, talent, style and grace. A smile that brightens every room. I respect you. I love you. I adore you.”
Anderson brought Brandon as her date to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, several months before her starring turn in The Last Showgirl. Anderson had agreed to join the Gia Coppola project at Brandon’s request.
“When I first laid eyes on it, I wasn’t really used to looking at projects like that for Pamela,” Brandon told Variety the following December. “It was such a breath of fresh air, and it was so impactful, and it was something I knew she could deliver on. And it was so timely, and it just seemed like the stars were aligning a bit on it and how it was playing into this arc of where she was in her career. I knew there were so many real-life inspirations she could take into this.”
Earlier that month, Anderson was nominated for a Golden Globe for the role and planned to take Brandon to the ceremony in January 2025.
Both Brandon and Dylan joined Anderson on the red carpet at the New York premiere of her film The Naked Gun. Anderson’s onscreen love interest, Liam Neeson, also brought his sons, Micheál and Daniel, whom he shared with late wife Natasha Richardson, as the costars sparked dating rumors.
