Pamela Bach died by suicide last week and now the eldest daughter she shares with actor David Hasselhoff has released a heartbreaking tribute alongside throwback images
The daughter of David Hasselhoff has spoken out about her mum’s tragic suicide a week after her death.
Pamela Bach, died by suicide aged 62, according to the Los Angeles Medical Examiner’s office. She was discovered after the family reportedly hadn’t heard from her in days. Following the news of her death, David told 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.”
Pamela and David were married from 1989 to 2006, with the two sharing daughters Hayley, 32, and Taylor, 34. Now, in a heartbreaking Instagram tribute, Taylor Haselhoff-Fiore has spoken out to say goodbye to her mum. The oldest daughter of the duo shared a slideshow of throwback images on her Stories.

Alongside the upload, which appears to have initially been a Mother’s Day post from last year, Taylor wrote: “I’d do anything in the world to hug you again, my forever angel. You are my best friend, my whole heart, my everything.”
She continued to promise she will make her mum proud and “celebrate you everyday,” before explaining her daughter, London, will always know all about her. Taylor added: “London will know all about how incredible you are & I promise I will protect Hayley forever…
“Mama I love you so much, the pain is unbearable but I will be strong for you & hold onto your memory until we meet again my beautiful.”
Among the images were a number of throwbacks of Hayley, her sister and her mum. There is also a snap of the trio alongside David, and another of Pamela with her beauty medals. Timothee Chalamet’s version of Pure Imagination played over the image reel.
It’s thought Taylor’s sister was at the scene after their mother was found. A neighbour claimed Hayley was heard “screaming and crying” outside her mother’s home on Wednesday, reportedly going in and out of her parent’s property after Pamela was said to have fatally shot herself. Neighbour Hiromi Osieck said of Hayley’s anguish: “She was hysterical, yelling, screaming, crying on the street.
“She was crying, saying ‘I just want to get my car’. A little later, she came out with the police. I heard her crying and somebody was trying to comfort her.” The neighbour saw paramedics arriving at the property close to 9pm before Hayley came out from the house looking distressed. Osieck added to MailOnline they last saw Pamela at the home earlier that week taking out the trash. Osieck’s husband described Pamela as “chatty” and said she talked to many people when she walked her dogs.
