LOS ANGELES — Pamela Bach, an actress known for her roles in popular TV series and as the former spouse of “Baywatch” icon David Hasselhoff, has passed away at the age of 62.
The Los Angeles medical examiner’s office confirmed her death on Wednesday, though the precise cause remains under investigation. Also recognized as Pamela Hasselhoff, she was featured in “The Young and the Restless” and initially crossed paths with David Hasselhoff while working on the set of “Knight Rider.”
In addition to her appearance on “The Young and the Restless,” Bach also had a role on “Baywatch.”
The couple exchanged vows in December 1989 and together they had two daughters, Taylor and Hayley. Their marriage, however, came to an end when Hasselhoff filed for divorce in January 2006. The split was contentious, with Bach claiming domestic abuse against her ex-husband. During this time, a video capturing Hasselhoff in a compromising position, allegedly drunk and eating a burger, was released, leading to a temporary suspension of his visitation rights with his children. These rights were reinstated two weeks later after he acknowledged the relapse but refuted the abuse allegations.
Attempts to reach out to David Hasselhoff’s representative for comments have yet to receive a response.
Notably, in 2018, David Hasselhoff remarried, tying the knot with model Hayley Roberts.
