Pamela Anderson talks to Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain

Pamela Anderson wed her bodyguard, Dan Hayhurst, in a secret ceremony on Christmas Eve.

The couple reportedly got married at Anderson's home on Vancouver Island in Canada.

“I was married on the property I bought from my grandparents 25 years ago, this is where my parents were married and they are still together,” she told The Daily Mail, which also exclusively published photos of the ceremony. 

“I feel like I’ve come full circle. I think this romantic property has a lot of healing energy. I’m at peace here. It’s a big property, but a few people passing by could see the fairytale gown with the long Princess Diana veil dragging in the mud. Heaven.”

“I’m exactly where I need to be – in the arms of a man who truly loves me,” she added.

Page Six reported that the Baywatch star, 53, was dating Hayhurst in September 2020.

“He’s in his 40s. A real man, finally,” a friend of Anderson’s told Page Six of Hayhurst at the time. “He knows how to handle her. It’s very cool to see. She’s completely comfortable, and they’re never out of each other’s sight.”

This is technically Anderson's fifth marriage; she was first married to rocker Tommy Lee in the 1990s, followed by Kid Rock (they divorced in 2006). Anderson then married music producer Rick Salomon twice (first in 2007, then again in 2012). 

Anderson's most recent marriage was to film producer Jon Peters in 2020, though their union only lasted 12 days. The star claimed it was only a “mock ceremony" and not a legal wedding, The Sun reported.
