Married again
Pam Anderson has walked down the aisle for the sixth time with her fifth husband. On Jan. 27, the former "Baywatch" beauty told The Daily Mail that she secretly married her bodyguard, Dan Hayhurst, at her home in Canada on Christmas Eve 2020. "I'm exactly where I need to be — in the arms of a man who truly loves me," she said. The nuptials were conducted by a local pastor, and no family or friends were present. "I am in love. We were married Christmas Eve with both our families' blessing, everyone we know is happy for us," Pam, 53, said. "I was married on the property I bought from my grandparents 25 years ago, this is where my parents were married and they are still together. I feel like I've come full circle." However, in a Jan. 28 story in The Sun, Dan's ex, a woman identified as Carey, claimed Dan — who worked as a handyman and builder before he became Pam's bodyguard last year — was living with her, her child and his two kids when he cheated on her with the actress. "This is not the lockdown love story which is being portrayed, it's all a facade," Carey said, adding that her relationship with Dan "ended because of the affair Pam and Dan started while he was still with me."

Motion denied
Lori Loughlin's husband had better get used to his current surroundings. On Jan. 26, a judge denied Mossimo Giannulli's plea to let him serve the rest of his five-month prison sentence — for his crimes as part of a college admissions bribery scandal — at home. Earlier this month, Lori's husband claimed he was terrified of the coronavirus spreading in the prison system and asked the court to step in and allow him to finish his sentence in home confinement. According to TMZ, a judge said Mossimo's arguments weren't compelling enough and felt that he doesn't have a heightened risk of contracting the virus at USP Lompoc in Santa Barbara, California. His release is set for April 17.
