Pamela Anderson has added a daughter-in-law to her family after her youngest son, Dylan, tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, interior designer Paula Bruss.

The 59-year-old called the intimate gathering at a private villa in Les Parcs, Saint-Tropez, an "emotional moment" after watching her son marry in the same place he proposed in July 2024.

"Dylan is a beautiful soul – he really is a grounding force in all of our lives," Pamela told Vogue.

"He and Paula are an undeniable match. They are a wonderful artistic couple, and we are so blessed to share our families."

She continued: "I'm so happy for Dylan and so excited to send him off into the wild world. It's an emotional moment. 

"Tears are catching me off guard at times – happy tears. But as Khalil Gibran says, 'As parents, we are the bow from which life springs.'"

Speaking about his wedding, Dylan told the publication: "We felt pure happiness. Looking around and seeing everyone we love gathered together in one place was overwhelming in the best possible way. 

"There was so much excitement and love in the air. Being one of the first among many of our friends to get married made the day feel especially meaningful, and we truly tried to soak in every second together."

He added: "The service was peaceful and sentimental. Seeing my beautiful wife walking down the aisle and reciting my vows in the middle of the most beautiful wildflower garden was a dream come true."

"Neither of us had ever been to a wedding before," Paula added. "Waiting two years for that moment made it feel even more magical."

The bride wore a dress designed by Fernando Garcia for Oscar de la Renta. According to Vogue, Paula, her mom and Pamela worked closely with the fashion brand's team on the design, drawing inspiration from "classic French cinema, Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette, Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face, and archival runway collections."

"I had always envisioned being in ballet flats or barefoot down the aisle," Paula said. "So we kept the front of the dress shorter but kept the long train in the back to give it that princess look.

"Every fitting felt special," she added. "And together we created something that felt timeless while still feeling completely like me."

Pamela wore a custom mustard brocade dress with a small cape, also by Oscar de la Renta. "Fernando has been a friend for a long time," she explained.

Alongside Dylan, Pamela also shares son Brandon with her ex-husband, Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee, both of whom were at the wedding.

When the pair divorced in 1998, they entered into a years-long custody battle for their sons, which was only resolved in 2002 when they were both granted joint custody.

Brandon, 30, has followed his famous parents into show business with plenty of career moments under his belt, having worked as an actor, a director and even a fashion mogul.

Alongside acting, he launched his own fashion line, Swingers Club, inspired by his love of golf. 

He has also stepped behind the camera, as he served as a producer on 'Pamela: A Love Story', a documentary about his famous mom, with the intention of "telling the truth" about her life. 

Dylan, meanwhile, has walked numerous catwalks as a model and even appeared in a band, much like his father.
