Pamela Anderson took a leap and decided to move out of the U.S. after decades of living in California.
The Naked Gun actress sold her Malibu home of more than 20 years for $11.8 million in November 2021, Us Weekly confirmed at the time. Anderson had initially purchased the home in December 2000 for $1.8 million.
“Many sexy, fun times were had here,” she told the celebrity.land in March 2021 of memories made in her one-time residence.
Anderson was ready for a major change and felt it was the right time to move out of the U.S. to go back to her roots.
Scroll below for details on where Anderson lives now and the reason why she moved away from Hollywood:
Where Does Pamela Anderson Live Now?
Anderson currently lives on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada.
“Vancouver Island, located on Canada’s West Coast, is known for its mild climate, abundance and relaxed way of life,” according to Tourism Vancouver Island. “This region is defined by its ancient rainforests, rugged coastlines and cool waters of the Pacific Ocean, creating an abundance of outdoor recreation opportunities and peaceful getaways.”
Anderson’s Instagram page is full of glimpses of her 100-year-old home and whimsical garden in Canada. The property has been in her family for generations and is referred to as Arcady, which means “peaceful, rustic place.”
“I think it’s kind of like a wildflower sanctuary: mystical, very romantic. I live in a rainforest, so it just feels very, I don’t know, healthy,” she told Architectural Digest in October 2024. “Of course I love neutral colors. I love all the linen, and everything is very earthy and wood and white and concrete, and I love that too. It’s eclectic, I like to have fun. It’s bursting with memories of my childhood, so it’s triggering!”
Why Did Pamela Anderson Leave the U.S.?
Anderson moved to Canada during her marriage to Dan Hayhurst, which lasted from 2020 to 2022.
“I feel more settled on my sustainable ranch on Vancouver Island with space to rescue more animals. It’s still beachfront. One foot away from the water — and I’m lost,” she told the celebrity.land.
Anderson was born and raised in Ladysmith, British Columbia, so returning to the place she grew up was incredibly special and gave her time to reflect.
“A few years back, I kind of gave up at some point and needed a change,” Anderson told Better Homes & Gardens in August 2024. “I thought, well, I guess that’s just what people think of me. I was not in a good space when I moved back to Canada. I don’t know what happened over the last few decades, but I feel now so far removed from the image of who I was.”
She continued, “I felt very sad and lonely. I didn’t feel just misunderstood, I felt like I had really screwed up, that my whole life was a bundle of mistakes. I was hard on myself, and I thought I put my family through a lot and put my kids through so much.” (Anderson shares sons Brandon and Dylan with ex-husband Tommy Lee.)
During the recent press run for The Naked Gun, Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson had the internet in a chokehold. Slow-motion video montages of the pair set to sappy love songs flooded Instagram and TikTok. In one clip from the July 22 London premiere, Anderson gives Neeson a sweet kiss on his cheek. In another, […]
Anderson said that she “decided to move home and disappear” and become very involved in gardening.
“And when I started building the garden, it was really like a metaphor of putting my life back together,” she noted. “I began planting seeds, and the smallest things became really profound.”
Pamela Anderson Briefly Lived in France
Prior to moving back to Canada, Anderson temporarily relocated to France amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It was at the very beginning and during lockdown. Before that, I was in France for two years, living in Marseille, and then I flew home to L.A. then up to Canada,” she told Better Homes & Gardens. “I bought the property and started renovating it. I mean, you should see the before pictures. It was decayed and rotten to the ground. I lived in another little house on the beach that I had that was livable.”
