Is Liam Neeson taken?
Liam Neeson has stirred up speculation about his romantic life after he recently expressed that he is “madly in love” while discussing his Naked Gun co-star, Pamela Anderson. At 72, Neeson’s comments have caught the attention of fans and media alike, especially considering the long time since the passing of his wife, actress Natasha Richardson, in 2009.
Is Liam Neeson taken?
In an exclusive interview with People magazine, Neeson praised Anderson, calling her “terrific to work with” and highlighting her work ethic, humor, and approachability. His genuine admiration seems to go beyond surface-level compliments. He stated, “I’m madly in love with her,” and noted that she lacks a “huge ego,” emphasizing her commitment to the work at hand. This has fueled speculation about a possible romance.
Anderson, 57, reciprocated Neeson’s kind words, describing him as “the perfect gentleman” and appreciating how he brings out the best in those he works with. She fondly recalled how he looked after her on set, even wrapping his coat around her to keep her warm, which certainly adds to the notion that there might be a deeper connection.
Both actors have had their share of relationships in the past. Neeson has mostly remained single since Richardson’s death but has had brief flings with a few women over the years. Anderson, on the other hand, has been through multiple marriages, the most recent ending in 2022. Given their current status—Anderson single and Neeson expressing disinterest in dating—it raises questions about what the future holds for them.
Despite the chemistry and affectionate words exchanged, sources suggest that what exists between Neeson and Anderson is strictly platonic. Neeson himself has commented on his reluctance to date again, stating he’s “past all that.” This raises the possibility that while their on-screen dynamic may be electric, it may not translate into a real-life romance.
As the release date for their Naked Gun reboot approaches, scheduled for August 1, 2025, fans will undoubtedly keep an eye on their interactions. While the affection and admiration are palpable, it seems for now that both actors are content with their platonic relationship, leaving the romantic speculation up in the air. Whether or not this could evolve into something more remains to be seen, but for now, Neeson and Anderson’s working relationship appears to be the focus.
