Pamela Anderson dating skating partner Matt Evers

Pamela Anderson is dating her 'Dancing on Ice' partner Matt Evers.

The former 'Baywatch' star was eliminated from the show with her pro-skater partner earlier this month - with a wardrobe malfunction contributing to her being voted off - but the pair have been secretly dating since New Year's Eve (31.12.12).

The couple intend to go public with their romance in March when Pamela, 45, returns to the UK for the show's final.

However, a spokesman for Matt, 36, has already gone some way to confirm their romance.

The spokesman said: 'They formed a very close bond and have made plans to see each other in the very near future.'

Pamela - who last dated Cirque du Soleil performer Jesus Villa - and Matt struck up an instant chemistry during rehearsals and although they are currently apart they are in constant contact.

The source added: 'Matt is moping around like a love-sick puppy, while Pamela keeps reassuring him how much she feels for him. They cannot wait to see each other again ... No one imagined they would get together but after spending more and more time together away from the rink, things started to progress.

'Matt stayed with Pamela at her house in Malibu shortly before Christmas and they also went out for a couple of dinners in LA.

'She invited him to be her guest of honour at her New Year's Eve party at the Dorchester in London, and it was then something first happened. During filming Pammy was renting a cottage and Matt stayed with her.'
