Anderson also spoke with The Sunday Times about the separation between her and her public persona that accompanied her in her early career, which was prompted by the image shown on Baywatch and in the tabloids with her ex Tommy Lee – with whom she shares her sons Brandon (27) and Dylan (26) – and other ex-spouses.
“I created this character to fight or to mask a lot of my disappointment in things that happened along the way,” Anderson said.
She also shared that she is now comfortable showing herself in public, as a mother and homemaker who loves gardening and cooking.
“Now I play myself. I feel more like myself now than ever,” Anderson said.

The star further admitted that her previous public persona, along with her, had a negative impact on her sons Brandon and Dylan.
“[They] they probably don’t feel like they have to defend their mom anymore. “My public perception has changed and you don’t realize how much it affects your children,” Anderson admitted.
