Andy Cohen surprises: “Pamela Anderson has the same roots as Natasha Richardson – Liam Neeson's late wife” - lulu

   

Andy Cohen is giving Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson’s budding romance his stamp of approval.

The Bravo executive, notably, was “dear friend[s]” with the actor’s late wife, Natasha Richardson — and thinks Anderson is “just like” her.

While attending the “Naked Gun” premiere party Monday, Cohen told Neeson, “She is an independent woman just like Tash was. She loves to cook. She has her own thing going on. She has two boys.”

The “Radio Andy” host, 57, insisted to listeners Wednesday that Anderson, 58, and Neeson, 73, “just work.”

He explained, “She is a formidable human being, Pamela Anderson. She really is. What she’s been through and how she kind of reclaimed herself and redefined herself [is impressive].”

Co-host John Hill agreed that the duo are a “good match.”

Cohen added, “I and all of the friends in this circle are very much stanning whatever this is. Shipping.”

The “Watch What Happens Live” co-host noted that, “sweetie, it’s been 16 years” since Richardson died at age 45 in a tragic skiing accident.

The Broadway star and Neeson were married for more than a decade before Richardson’s March 2009 passing.

During their time together, the former couple welcomed sons Micheál, 30, and Daniel, 28.

Anderson, for her part, is the mother of sons Brandon, 29, and Dylan, 27, with her ex-husband Tommy Lee.

The “Baywatch” alum and Neeson both brought their boys to the New York City premiere of their cop comedy on Monday.

The “Taken” star made headlines last year for telling People he had fallen “madly in love” with Anderson on set.

The duo have since gone viral for cozying up to each other on red carpets promoting “Naked Gun” — and playing coy about the relationship rumors on “Today.”

Page Six confirmed their romance Wednesday, with a source telling us, “They are figuring things out along the way.”
