Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff, ex-wife of actor David Hasselhoff, died by self-inflicted gunshot wound on Wednesday. She was 62.
Paramedics responded to a 911 call and found Bach deceased at her Los Angeles home shortly after 10 PM. She did not leave a suicide note, according to TMZ.
Hasselhoff tells TMZ: “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.”
Bach worked alongside her then-husband Dave Hasselhoff on the long-running TV series Baywatch. She also had a recurring role as a psychologist in the TV series Sirens.
Bach met Hasselhoff on the set of his TV series “Knight Rider” in 1985. They were married in December 1989.
In January 2006, Hasselhoff filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. They shared 2 daughters. Bach was given custody of one daughter and Hasselhoff got custody of the other girl.
In addition to Baywatch and Sirens, Bach appeared in The Young and the Restless, Baywatch Nights, Viper, Celebrity Big Brother, and other television shows.
Bach is survived by her 2 daughters and a granddaughter.
