TORONTO — Pamela Anderson praised her sons as “gentlemen” this week and said she is surprised they turned out so well.

“I’m really fortunate because it could have been a disaster,” the 47-year-old actress said on the episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show that aired Wednesday.

“They’re genetically loaded,” Anderson said of her sons with Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee.

The former Baywatch star said Brandon, 18, and Dylan, 17, are “great kids.”

Anderson told DeGeneres both teens have girlfriends. “My youngest is a real romantic,” she said. “My oldest, the phone doesn’t stop ringing.”

She said Brandon got a lot of positive attention after she brought him to the L.A. premiere of The Gunman in March.

“I kept them out of the spotlight their whole lives [but] he’s 18,” said Anderson. “He doesn’t need any more confidence.”

“It breaks my heart that any of my decisions affected them in a negative way,” she told the magazine. “I’m sad that I’ve hurt them.
