The actress Pamela Bach, who starred in Knight Rider and Baywatch, died at the age of 62. Taylor and Hayley are her two kids from her former marriage to David Hasselhoff, which lasted from 1989 until 2006.
Tragic Loss in Hollywood
Pamela was found dead in her Los Angeles home on March 5, 2025.. According to the Los Angeles Medical Examiner, her cause of death was ruled a suicide from a gunshot wound. Her family reportedly became concerned after not hearing from her and went to check on her.
Her ex-husband David Hasselhoff, 72, released a statement through his representative:
“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.”
A Life in the Spotlight
Pamela met David Hasselhoff while guest-starring on Knight Rider, where he played the lead role. Later, she had several appearances in the renowned lifeguard drama Baywatch, which helped make Hasselhoff famous.
Pamela was loyal to her family outside of her professional career. London, her granddaughter born in August 2024, and her daughters were the subjects of many of her posts.
On New Year’s Eve 2024, she shared her last Instagram post, which showed how much she loved her family:
As 2025 approaches, I am really grateful, especially for my darling grandson, London. The greatest delight I have ever experienced is seeing her blossom and her smile light up my life.
Remembering Pamela Bach
Neither of her daughters has publicly commented on her passing, but Hayley Hasselhoff reposted a 1996 photo of her parents attending the grand opening of the Jurassic Park ride at Universal Studios. She added a white heart emoji (đ¤) to the post, a subtle tribute to her late mother.
Pamelaâs passing is a heartbreaking loss for her family, friends, and fans who remember her from her time on Baywatch and beyond.
