David Hasselhoff breaks silence on ex-wife Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff’s shock suicide aged 62 and reveals their last conversation

David Hasselhoff has broken his silence on his ex-wife Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff’s shock suicide aged 62.

Bach-Hasselhoff who worked as an actress, was found dead at her $2million Hollywood Hills home of a self-inflicted gunshot wound Wednesday night.

A spokesman for Hasselhoff exclusively told DailyMail.com: ‘Our family is deeply saddened by the recent passing of Pamela Hasselhoff.

‘We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support during this difficult time but we kindly request privacy as we grieve and navigate through this challenging time.

They shared two daughters, 32-year-old Hayley and 34-year-old Taylor.

Bach-Hasselhoff is also survived by a granddaughter, named London.

Hayley reposted an Instagram carousel showing her parents attending the opening of Jurassic Park: The Ride at Universal Studios in 1996.

She captioned the post with a simple heart emoji.

TMZ – who was first to report the death – reported that there was no suicide note left at her home, which is a stone’s throw from Universal Studios.

Bach-Hasselhoff was married to the Baywatch star, 72, between 1989 and 2006.

The pair had a contentious divorce, with arguments about spousal support continuing into 2017.

Bach-Hasselhoff’s debut movie role was Francis Ford Coppola’s Rumble Fish in 1983.

She also snared a role in Baywatch in 1989, playing café owner Kaye Morgan.

Officials reportedly found Bach Hasselhoff’s remains after her family became concerned when they did not hear from her for days.

Paramedics were called to her house on reports of an unconscious woman shortly after 10pm Wednesday.

Bach-Hasselhoff’s debut movie role was Francis Ford Coppola’s Rumble Fish in 1983.

She also snared a role in Baywatch in 1989, playing café owner Kaye Morgan.

Some of her other TV roles included jobs on The Young and the Restless, The Fall Guy and Sirens.

She did not return to acting in recent years; In 2011, she appeared on Celebrity Big Brother.

Bach-Hasselhoff was regularly active on Instagram, where she shared images with her family, until December.

After their 2006 divorce, Hasselhoff complained several times about the alimony he continue to pay for his ex-wife until at least 2017.

He also cited his own reduced income, which previously saw the payments reduced from $21,000 a month.

However, the Viper actress later hit back and in her legal documents argued she had made ‘good faith and reasonable efforts’ to secure work as an actress, but given her age, ‘the current market for actresses’ and the time she took out to raise her family, hadn’t been successful.

She argued David made around $1 million a year still, whereas her prime earning years were spent raising their daughters and taking care of their home so the ‘Knightrider’ star could pursue his own career.

Her legal documents also argued that her ex-husband had failed to give her $1 million to balance the separation of their assets when they divorced, as she got $325,000 from their house, whereas he kept the home, a boat, jetskis, and two trusts with extensive assets.

Back on New Year’s Eve, Bach-Hasselhoff shared a heartbreaking final post that was full of optimism.

She shared a short video beginning with a snap of Bach-Hasselhoff in front of the Christmas tree before cutting to a cute video of her grandchild.

The actress captioned the post: ‘Happy New Year, everyone! As we step into 2025, my heart is full of gratitude, especially for my precious grandbaby, London. Watching her grow and seeing her smile light up my world is truly the greatest blessing.

‘My wish for all of you this year is health, happiness, and an abundance of love.’

Bach-Hasselhoff concluded the written caption with an positive message.

She wrote: ‘May 2025 be filled with beautiful moments, laughter, and all the blessings your hearts can hold. Here’s to a year of making cherished memories, spreading joy, and embracing every precious moment!’
