Actress Pamela Anderson's estranged husband Rick Salomon has accused her of being a "serial baby killer".

The former "Baywatch" actress was granted a temporary restraining order against Salomon, who she filed for divorce from last month. Among the documents she filed to support her claim that his "erratic" behaviour left her concerned about her safety, were e-mails and text messages from her former partner.

In one e-mail, Salomon, who is seeking to have their marriage annulled on the grounds of fraud, claimed the 47-year-old begged him to get pregnant when they were married the first time, in 2007, but then had a termination.

He also wrote: "I did not no she was a serial baby killer to her husbands... she should be locked up.(sic)"

According to tmz.com, a text from Salomon to Anderson, who has sons Brandon, 18, and Dylan, 17, from her marriage to Tommy Lee, read: "You never disclosed to me that you (aborted) a baby when you were married to kid rock. I heard you begged him to get pregnant with him too. I also heard it might have also been twice with him."

In her application for the restraining order, Anderson claimed that since she filed for divorce from the poker player, his behaviour has "become erratic, out of control and has caused me to fear for my safety".

She added that when her husband is "upset", he calls her "cruel names" such as "s**t", "ugly old bi***" and "crack w***e".

The temporary restraining order will hold until a court hearing scheduled for April 3.
