Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff, an American actress and daughter of actor John Forsythe, has died in her Los Angeles home on March 5. She was 62 years old. According to the Los Angeles Medical Examiner, Pamela’s death was ruled a suicide by gunshot.
Her family had not been in contact with her for some time, prompting them to check on her at home. David Hasselhoff, Pamela’s ex-husband and actor, released a statement saying their family is “deeply saddened” by her passing and requested privacy during this difficult time.
Pamela was known for sharing loving posts about her daughters and granddaughter on social media. Her most recent post on New Year’s Eve featured a photo of her posing with an elaborate Christmas tree and a video of her adorable granddaughter. In the caption, she expressed gratitude and love for her family.
The couple met on the set of Knight Rider in 1987 and went on to appear together in several episodes of Baywatch. Pamela’s daughters have not publicly commented on her death, but her younger daughter Hayley reposted a photo of their parents from 1996 on her Instagram Stories.
