Pamela Bach, the former Baywatch actress and ex-wife of David Hasselhoff, has passed away at the age of 62.

She was found dead at her home in the Hollywood Hills on March 5, and the Los Angeles Medical Examiner confirmed her death was by suicide.

Bach met Hasselhoff while working with him on the TV show Knight Rider, and they married in 1989. She later starred with him on Baywatch, but they divorced in 2006.

David Hasselhoff released a statement saying, “Our family is deeply saddened by the recent passing of Pamela Hasselhoff. We appreciate the love and support we’ve received during this difficult time, but we kindly ask for privacy as we grieve.”

Bach was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and began acting in the 1970s. She and Hasselhoff had two daughters together.

Her acting roles included appearances on The Young and the Restless, Cheers, The Fall Guy, T.J. Hooker, Superboy, and Viper.

Her daughter, Hayley Amber Hasselhoff, shared a photo of her parents on Instagram as a tribute to her mother.

In her last Instagram post on New Year’s Eve, Bach expressed excitement about welcoming 2025 and watching her granddaughter, London, grow up. She called it “the greatest blessing” and wished for a year full of joy and beautiful moments.

Bach’s representative, Sharon Kelly, told TMZ that she was shocked by the news of her death and sent her condolences to Bach’s family, especially her daughters and granddaughter, whom Bach loved dearly.
