Pamela Anderson and Dan Hayhurst had the same issue; they were both caught up in a lifestyle that didn’t work well for them. Pamela Anderson wanted out and found that she was living life on her own terms, even if it was just for a day.
Seven months after separating from Jon Peters, Pamela Anderson started going out with Dan Hayhurst. Three months into it, Anderson was once again married. But it didn’t turn out well. “It ended up being a disaster,” she told Vanity Fair in January 2023. After a lifetime of relationships with famous men, Anderson wanted to experience the mundane. So amid the COVID-19 pandemic, she left California and retuned to her native Canada.
In her search, she fell for a man who was working as a contractor on her home renovation project and as her bodyguard. But normal didn’t translate into good — or even remotely close to it. “It was worse than any of them,” she told The Sunday Times in January 2023. Anderson regretted her decision to marry Hayhurst almost immediately. He pulled her into a lifestyle that didn’t suit her and, soon enough, she felt trapped. “I realized, oh my God, I’m caught up in this whole thing, what am I doing? It just struck me, this is another disaster,” she detailed.
With Hayhurst, Anderson felt reduced to a housewife — one forced to cook with ingredients she felt uncomfortable with and to pay for it. “I was just like a short-order cook. And they ate meat!” said Anderson, who is an animal activist and longtime vegan. “I was paying for everything, cooking, cleaning for everybody.” She wanted out. Just 13 months after saying “I do,” Anderson split from Hayhurst.
