The 42-year-old mother of two recently shrugged off rumours that she owes more than $1 million to contractors, telling Access Hollywood in Miami, "That's all garbage".

"I have a beautiful home in Canada, nine little cabins on the dock that I'm building and a store in the front," she told Access Hollywood.

"That's going to be kind of my sanctuary. I think eventually I'll be out of LA and I'll be living more on Vancouver Island. And Malibu, I can't get away from Malibu … I'm all over the place."

The former Baywatch star said the rumours are stemming from a dispute with the contractors who are building her Malibu home.

Widely reported rumours spread in September that money is owed to five different construction companies, which carried out work on her Malibu home. Part of the debt was also due to state back taxes, Access Hollywood reported.

The PETA advocate went on to say that she was reviewing the contractors' work from the beginning because she didn't want to be "ripped off".
