The Baywatch star first gained attention as a Playboy Model of the Month before launching her successful entertainment career. Over time, she has made appearances on more than 30 television shows, with one of her most notable roles being a recurring spot on the popular sitcom Home Improvement.

Before she became a household name, she graduated from secondary school and started her professional life as a fitness instructor in Vancouver. Her personal life has been just as dynamic as her career. She was previously married to Tommy Lee from 1995 to 1998, and later tied the knot with Kid Rock in 2006. That marriage, however, ended in divorce the following year. She then married Rick Salomon and eventually filed for divorce in 2014.

In early 2020, she married Jon Peters, but the union was short-lived, with the couple separating just days after the wedding. Later that year, on Christmas Eve in 2020, she married Dan Hayhurst. Unfortunately, the pair announced their separation in early 2022. As of 2025, she has moved forward with a new chapter in her life, starting a relationship with Liam Neeson.

She is also a proud mother to her two sons, Brandon and Dylan, who have remained a central part of her life throughout the many changes she’s experienced.
