Pamela Anderson obtains restraining order against 'abusive' husband

Pamela Anderson has received a restraining order against her estranged husband Rick Salomon, who tried to smother the actress with a pillow.

The Baywatch star even claimed early this year that when her 47-year-old poker player husband used to loose at poker he got nasty with her, and called her abusive names, TMZ.com reported.

Anderson has also filed for divorce from Salomon whereas he has filed for an annulment, claiming it to be fraud.
