H2: Kid Rock says marriage “sucked”
In a 2007 interview with Blender, Kid Rock declared, “Getting married is the most fun you can have in life. Being married sucks.” He did not name Pamela Anderson in that interview, but she remains the only woman he has ever married — their union lasted roughly four months before he filed for divorce.
H3: A short but highly publicized marriage
Anderson and Kid Rock’s relationship dated back years before they tied the knot. They were engaged more than once and ultimately married in a high-profile, short-lived ceremony. Their split in 2007 made headlines and apparently left both parties with strong feelings about the partnership.
H3: Why it ended
Over time both have offered reasons for the breakup. Kid Rock pointed to disagreements about family, money and lifestyle — including clashes over his dislike of California. Anderson later told Howard Stern during a press run for her memoir Love, Pamela. that she recognized early on the marriage wasn’t likely to work. She said she was trying to rebuild a family unit and believed Kid Rock was “a mess” during that period.
H2: Life after the divorce
After the breakup, the exes took different paths. Kid Rock avoided remarriage but pursued long-term relationships. He dated Audrey Berry for several years and announced an engagement in 2017; that engagement ended in early 2025.
Anderson returned to other high-profile relationships. She reunited with Tommy Lee following her divorce from Kid Rock, later married Rick Salomon twice, and then married Dan Hayhurst — a union that ended in a finalized divorce in 2022. More recently, media outlets reported a brief romance with actor Liam Neeson that she confirmed had ended.
H2: No contact between the former couple
Although both have discussed the marriage publicly at times, Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock have not spoken to each other since their divorce. Both appear at peace with that distance, moving forward with separate personal and professional lives.
H3: What the quote means now
Kid Rock’s blunt 2007 comment captured the frustration he felt at the time. Nearly two decades later, the remark remains a notable line in retrospectives about their headline-making marriage and brief union.
