Pamela Pines for Tommy Lee

Absence, or perhaps in this case, abstinence, apparently does make the heart grow fonder. Pamela Anderson admits that she misses estranged hubby Tommy Lee, who's currently serving six months in the slammer for battering her.

The former Baywatch babe, 30, who filed for divorce in February, tells Jane magazine that Tommy is always on her mind: "There's not a minute that goes by that I'm not thinking about him.… Part of me wants to pick up the phone, part of me wants to e-mail him, and part of me wants to… there's times when I just have to keep walking in circles. I'm very reactive, and I'm trying to think before I do things."

The actress, who's soon to be seen in the syndicated series V.I.P., tells the magazine that the Motley Crue drummer "is a 36-year-old teenager. He's just learning now that things have consequences." But, she adds, he is "the father of my children, and he's always going to be part of my life." Just not a close part: As part of Lee's probation requirement, he must stay at least 100 yards away from his soon-to-be ex-wife.

And don't expect a jailhouse reconciliation: Anderson hasn't completely blocked out the bad parts of her marriage to the explosive rocker. She reveals to the magazine how Tommy turned abusive on a trip to Las Vegas: "He completely went blank. His eyes were glass.… He completely lost it." As for the future, Pam says, "Who knows what's going to happen in the next five years down the road?"
