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.

Meghan Markle’s Netflix show With Love, Meghan has been savaged by the critics despite the announcement it is coming back for a second series – and one expert has revealed two options for the Duchess to move past the brutal reviews

Meghan Markle has two options if she wants to move past her brutal Netflix show reviews, an expert has warned.

It has been a week since With Love, Meghan hit the streaming platform showing the Duchess of Sussex share tips and tricks when it comes to cooking and hosting. But the eight-part series, which sees her joined by a string of celebrity friends, has been savaged by critics, with some claiming it is ‘boring’.

The show had been viewed as a make-or-break moment for the Sussexes, who signed a multimillion-pound deal with Netflix in 2020. However, it was revealed that it will be returning for a second season in the autumn with filming for it already taking place.

With more episodes in the pipeline and her lifestyle brand selling jam and flower sprinkles still to come, PR expert Ed Coram-James has revealed how Meghan can shake off the criticism. And he told the Mirror there are two roads she can take – either do nothing or re-evaluate her role in the show

He explained: “On With Love, Meghan, the duchess is glowing, surrounded by seemingly close friends and family, in stunning Montecito, which she calls home. She seems happy — it’s her passion project — she’s experimenting and is lucky enough to have the resources and platform to share her passion.

“Some people have compared her to Brooklyn Beckham, not knowing his forte, but experimenting with everything from cooking to photography, and I don’t think this is a bad thing at all.

“Perhaps she simply won’t care about the reviews and expected bad feedback if she has any self-awareness. It might be best to simply ignore them and continue doing what she does best: making headlines as she continues her journey post-royal life.”

But Ed, CEO of Go Up, believes that the poor reviews will sting for Meghan and she should attempt to “reframe the narrative”. He explained: “Meghan has experience pivoting in the media — take her Oprah interview, for example, where she took ownership of her own story

“Moving past these reviews will require her to lean into her authentic self even more, perhaps by showing up more prominently in the content and being more transparent about her involvement. She’s recently returned to Instagram but could be doing more with it, such as taking her audience behind the scenes of her work.”

The second season of With Love, Meghan is coming in the autumn, and has already finished filming, according to Netflix. Meghan posted on her Instagram stories on Friday with a video of her wearing a hat with the writing “lettuce romaine calm” on and grinning, then turning and putting her hands in the air.

The caption on the Instagram story said: “Lettuce romaine calm… or not (!) because I’m thrilled to share that Season 2 of ‘With Love, Meghan’ is coming!” The story was shortly followed by a post on her Instagram with a reel with clips of her cooking and the caption: “Oh, how I love ASMR! If you’re loving Season 1, just wait until you see the fun we cooked up on Season 2! “Thanks for joining the party, and an endless thanks to the amazing team and crew who helped bring it all to life! @netflix

Samie Elishi appeared on the podcast hosted by Love Island winners Millie Court and Liam Reardon and made some explosive claims about her time in the villa

Love Island sweethearts Millie Court and Liam Reardon have hit the brakes on social media interaction after their chat with fellow Islander Samie Elishi took a heated turn on their podcast.

The couple, aged 29 and 25 respectively, saw sparks fly when 25 year old Samie disclosed that she’d confronted her All Stars nemesis Grace Jackson for calling her the “snakiest” contestant.

As Samie shared emotional memories of her teary debut in the villa, trolls began sending flak her way, leading to a feisty clap-back as she told one detractor to “do one”. Amid the turmoil, Millie and Liam decided to take precautionary measures, opting to shut down comment sections on their personal social media pages while Samie faces ongoing scrutiny.

Samie went on the podcast to explain what happened between her and Grace inside and outside the villa (

Reflecting on her tumultuous first day, Samie revealed to Millie and Liam during the podcast: “My first day I was so upset I was literally outside crying all day to the producers…” She continued, expressing her unease: “I was like what am I doing here?” The candid discussion went further as she questioned her place in the villa: “I was like, I don’t like anyone… is there any other Bombshells coming in? And they kind of told me, but not told me, that I was the last bombshell to walk in.

“And then I was like, oh this is just long. So now I knew that I was just going to be used to mess with couples.”

Samie entered the Love Island as a late arrival and had set her sights on Brighton lad Luca Bish, despite him being coupled up with Grace Jackson. While in the villa, she and Grace didn’t quite see eye-to-eye with them embroiled in a bitter feud during Samie’s time on the show. Also on the podcast, Samie admitted she took Grace to one side at The BRITs to confront her after they had both tried to avoid each other when partying with the same friends.

Millie and Liam were forced to turn their comments off after the episode with Samie (

She said on the podcast: “I did speak to her just because I said that I didn’t appreciate that she called me the snakeiest Islander on the podcast. I just said to her, honestly, I feel like I haven’t done anything in my eyes to you and it was just about the messages and stuff.”

Samie was referring to Grace’s explosive row with Liv Hawkins in the villa, when Liv suggested she had seen messages in which Grace claimed she would “do anything” to win. Samie added to the podcast: “She agreed that she didn’t think that Liv had photoshopped them or anything like that, which I was like oh okay, well can you tell everyone else that. I just knew what Liv was going through, and I what I was going through as well, and I was like it just wasn’t nice. She fully knows about the hate, but she didn’t apologise for calling me the snake. She just said that’s how I felt, so we just kind of left it as that.”

Reacting to the episode on Reddit, Love Island fans were left stunned by recent events. One viewer commented: “Samie put her foot in it by backing Liv with the Grace screenshots. If she just stayed quiet this would’ve been between just Liv and Grace,” They continued: “She can’t really speak the way she’s speaking saying Grace needs to clear anything up when her and Liv were the ones who put grace in this mess.”

Another said: “Sounds like both grace and Liv/Samie have been through a lot off the back of these allegations which just shows it really wasn’t worth bringing up in the first place.” Another fan noted: “Grace never called her snakey, she said that Samie and Liv were the least trustworthy because of the screenshots.

Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright have shared the exciting news that they have welcomed their first child into the world – and there is a special reason they chose the unique name

Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright have welcomed their first child – with a very unique name.

The couple welcomed their daughter Palma Elizabeth Wright into the world on March 6th and took to social media on Wednesday to make the exciting announcement, sharing it with their followers. Alongside a sweet black and white picture of their baby girl and their hands cradling her tiny one, they captioned the post: “Together we have a new love to share… Our little girl. Palma Elizabeth Wright. 06.03.25.”

Tributes flooded in for Michelle and Mark on the arrival of their baby girl, with Joe Wicks writing: “Ffs I’m crying over here. I know how much you’ve wanted to be a dad and you’ll be an amazing dad too. This is the most beautiful thing to see. So happy for you both.”

Jane Danson, who plays Leanne in Coronation Street, added: “huge congratulations. It’s the best x,” whilst Marvin Humes penned: “Massive news! Congrats guys, over the moon for you. The official Coronation Street account also paid tribute to the couple:, writing: “Congratulations to you both. Love from everyone here at Corrie x.”

Michelle and Mark headed to Spain

It seems like the couple could have taken their inspiration for their baby’s name from a recent trip to sunny Spain. The couple announced the exciting news to their social media followers with a photoshoot on a beach and a few weeks before, they headed to Palma de Mallorca in Spain for a romantic trip away.

Sharing some snaps from the pre- Christmas getaway, Michelle wrote: “Just a couple of days in our fave place before the Christmas build up begins,” alongside snaps of the food, coffee shops and scenery. It looks like the beach photos were also taken in sunny Palma de Mallorca, and none of the pictures she uploaded initially saw Michelle facing the camera, fuelling speculation she was hiding her baby bump in the initial snaps

Michelle shared a snap on a similar beachMichelle had previously opened up about the tough speculation about their marriage when they chose not to start a family straight away – but she now feels more “confident about her boundaries”.

“Around the time we got married, I was open about the fact that I wanted to have a family but then, because we didn’t choose to have children within a certain time, there was lots of speculation,” she said last month, “And we can handle that but, at one point, there was a story every week. My family was asking me about it, so I made the decision to not talk publicly about that side of my life. I’m going to be 38 this year and, as I’ve got older, I feel more confident about my boundaries

The Prince and Princess of Wales live at Adelaide Cottage near Windsor Castle – and on an outing last year Prince William revealed a surprising fact when it comes to bed time with wife Kate

The Prince and Princess of Wales fiercely guard time with their children at Adelaide Cottage – the home they see as their private sanctuary.

The couple live in the five-bedroom home on the Windsor estate with their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis – as well as their beloved family dog, Orla, the cocker spaniel. They’ve called Adelaide Cottage home for almost three years now, with only a few snippets of what goes on behind closed doors. However, on one outing, William seemingly lifted the lid on what happens at bed time with him and Kate with them often joined by one of their family members – Orla, the dog.

William made the revelation as he petted a wellwisher’s dog during a visit to Duchy College in Cornwall last year. As he chatted to Louise Harland and stroked her dog Jacks, she says that the prince told her that Orla often sleeps on the bed alongside the royal couple.

Louise told Hits Radio Cornwall: “[William] said that his little dog sleeps on the bed with them at night, with him and Kate. [He was] absolutely in love with my little dog. He asked what breed he was and he’s never met one of those breeds, he’s a Cockerjack, so he’s a little bit of a unique combination.”

Orla is not the family’s first pet. William and Kate’s previous dog Lupo – a wedding present from Kate’s brother James – died in November 2020.

In 2022 she featured in a beautiful photo with Princess Charlotte that was released to mark her seventh birthday in May and joined William and Kate at a polo match in 2023.

Meanwhile, it also seems the Wales family have other animals too. Last year, William visited Woodgate Valley Urban Farm, where he got to meet a range of animals – including some very cuddly guinea pigs. The prince got to pet them and was also allowed to brush the fur of one called Snowflake. And he told some of those he met at the farm: “These guys are pretty cool. We’ve got guinea pigs at home and they are not like this.

“I have to spend my life cleaning out the guinea pig cage because the children forget to do it. And then they run off because you have to handle them all the time, that’s why these ones are so calm. The ones we’ve got at home, they’re off. You have to keep them constantly stroked and looked after.

The Duke of Westminster, who married in a huge wedding last year that was attended by Prince William but Prince Harry agreed to stay away, has announced he and his wife are expecting their first child

The billionaire pal of Princes William and Harry has announced he and his wife are expecting their first child.

The Duke of Westminster, also known as Hugh Grosvenor, and his wife Olivia, now the Duchess of Westminster, are preparing to welcome their baby in the summer. The duke, one of the UK’s biggest landowners, is a close friend of both the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex, and godfather to Prince George and also reportedly to Prince Archie.

William acted as an usher at his wedding in Chester Cathedral last year but Harry mutually agreed with the groom he would not attend amid his long-running rift with his brother.

Hugh and Olivia married last year in a huge society wedding
A spokesman for the couple said: “The duchess is expecting a baby in the summer. The couple are delighted with the news and are very much looking forward to starting a family together

Hugh, once considered one of the country’s most eligible bachelors, became an instant billionaire when he inherited his title and control of the historic Grosvenor Estate aged 25, following the death of his father from a heart attack in 2016.

His property company, Grosvenor Group, owns hundreds of acres of land in Mayfair and Belgravia, as well as major city centre developments such as Liverpool’s One shopping centre. In 2020, the duke donated £12.5 million to the UK’s Covid-19 relief effort including funds for NHS Charities Together and for medical research and development.

As it stands, the new baby will be affected by a centuries-old rule that also led to Hugh inheriting the immense Grosvenor fortune, estimated at £10bn. Peerages only pass down the male line (known as male primogeniture), which means that the peerage can only be inherited by a male relative.

Therefore, if the Duke and Duchess’s child is a girl, under the current laws, she will not be entitled to inherit the Westminster title, nor the family fortune and estate that goes with it. Instead, she would be styled as Lady, while an eldest son would be known as Earl Grosvenor until he inherits the dukedom.

The same rule also directly impacted Hugh, who has two older sisters, Lady Tamara and Lady Edwina Grosvenor. When their father, Gerald Grosvenor, 6th Duke of Westminster, died in 2016, the family title went to Hugh, his third child and only son.

His marriage has reignited the debate over the archaic rule, with campaigners calling for a law change preventing younger sons inheriting over firstborn daughters.

The family has several enormous estates that include Eaton Hall in Cheshire and the Abbeystead Estate in Lancashire, as well as homes in Scotland and Spain. Hugh is Britain’s richest person aged under 40, according to The Sunday Times 2024 Rich List, with an estimated wealth of £10.127 billion, rising from £9.878 billion in 2023

King Charles discussed national and international topics of great concern as he welcomed officers from the Canadian parliament to Buckingham Palace on Wednesday

King Charles gave officers from the Canadian parliament “a warm exchange of greetings” – in French – on Wednesday.

The monarch, who is also Canada’s head of state, welcomed the ‘Canadian Usher of the Black Rod’, Greg Peters, and the Speaker of the Canadian senate, Raymonde Gagne, to Buckingham Palace.

They discussed national and international topics of great concern, it is understood, after Charles addressed them in both French and English. Charles, 76, has given multiple speeches in French over the years, and, in 2023, won over an audience of politicians in Berlin when he delivered much of his speech to the Bundestag in German.

English and French are the co-official languages of Canada and Charles’ charm appear to work as the audience, which has long been scheduled, saw the parties mull over a range of key topics for half an hour. Buckingham Palace said it was a “private audience” and gave no indication on what exactly was discussed.

But the meeting came after Donald Trump threatened historic financial devastation for Canada amid an escalating and erratic trade war, alongside repeated vows to make the country America’s 51st state.

Incoming Canadian prime minister Mark Carney has pledged to keep retaliatory tariffs in place until the US commits to free trade. Mr Trump had threatened to double his planned tariffs on steel and aluminium from 25% to 50% for Canada, but hours later halted the plan.

The King is said to have spent 30 minutes discussing topics of great concern to all parties, both nationally and internationally. He is said to have delivered a warm exchange of greetings in French and English.

The audience was held to present Mr Peters with a new ceremonial sword commissioned by the Senate in the King’s honour to mark the change of reign.

Charles is said to have shared his personal thanks for what was described as such a thoughtful gesture as he bestowed the sword on Mr Peters. The King is “very conscious” of his global responsibility and unique diplomatic role and is determined to put that to use, a royal source previously said.

Charles met outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the start of the month, a day after he received Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at Sandringham.

The monarch was hailed for offering a show of solidarity to Mr Zelensky by warmly welcoming him after the president’s dramatic Oval Office clash with Mr Trump.

The challenges Canada faces with its nearest neighbour were said to be high on the agenda, as was support for Ukraine, when the King met Mr Trudeau on March 3.

This Morning fans have been quick to point out how today’s phone-in on the show related to Danny Jones’ kiss with Maura Higgins, with presenter Cat Deeley referring to the scandal

This Morning viewers have taken to social media to highlight how today’s phone-in was secretly a reference to Danny Jones and Maura Higgins’ recent kiss scandal.

Today’s show saw hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley invite viewers to call in to give their thoughts on whether a drunken kiss counts as cheating, with Cat noting that the topic had been “in the headlines” a lot recently.

“Now here’s a question for you – does a drunken kiss on a night out count as cheating on a partner?” Ben told the camera. Cat added: “Lots of headlines in the news about this right now but are you grappling with the issue in your own relationship? If you are, Dr. Linda is here to help.”

As for who should ring in, therapist Dr. Linda Papadopoulos said: “Today I want to hear from anyone who is on either side of this issue. Maybe you suspect your partner of cheating, maybe you found out that they’re cheating and you’re being pressured to leave them and you actually feel it’s something that you can work through.

“Maybe you have done the cheating and you want to come clean. Whatever the case is, I know this is a complex area but it’s one that’s underdiscussed so please give us a call and we’ll speak about it and hopefully get you some good advice on how to cope.”

Viewers were quick to point out how This Morning appeared to be referencing the scandal surrounding Danny Jones’ kiss with Maura Higgins, which was caught on camera at a BRITs afterparty earlier this month.

“Love how This Morning are talking about Danny Jones and Maura Higgins, without mentioning their names about that ‘drunken kiss’,” one viewer wrote. Another said: “I’m expecting Danny Jones to call in to this phone in @thismorning #ThisMorning.”

Danny, who is married to Georgia Horsley, made his first TV appearance last week following the scandal in a pre-recorded episode of The One Show. The McFly singer appeared alongside bandmate Tom Fletcher to announce one of the winners of the show’s 500 Words competition.

Meanwhile, a source recently told The Mirror that Danny needs to address his kiss with Maura after keeping his head down over the past few weeks. Another video had emerged of the pair enjoying a wild night of drinking at swanky Nobu Hotel in London until 6am.

Roman Kemp has opened up about the pressure he feels to keep going and admitted there are times when he reaches breaking point and feels like he doesn’t care

Roman Kemp has opened up about feeling the “pressure” of a family trait, admitting there are times he feels like he doesn’t “care”.

On a recent instalment of their podcast, FFS! My dad Is Martin Kemp, Roman confessed to being “stressed” this week and often wanting to “turn everything off”. This led him to question his dad, Martin, about the idea of retiring, only to learn that Martin couldn’t imagine stopping.

The conversation took a turn when Roman pinpointed the source of the pressure: “You.” To which a surprised Martin responded, “From me? Why me? You’ve got a great work ethic. Is work ethic…is that another way of saying you work your b***s off?”. Roman clarified his view on what constitutes a good work ethic: “Good work ethic isn’t you working your b******s off. It’s about a balance between work and life split whilst maintaining drive.”

He then delved into his personal struggle: “Can you maintain drive and ambition alongside being true to yourself and understanding who you are? I struggle with that massively because I just…honestly, I just run myself into a moment where I’m like, ‘I don’t care anymore. I don’t care. Like, sack it all off’.

Roman opened up about the ‘pressure’ he feels

When Martin questioned why Roman didn’t just call in sick, Roman admitted he couldn’t bear the thought of letting everyone down, reports Gloucestershire Live.

The One Show’s very own has candidly shared his battle with depression, having admitted in the poignant documentary Our Silent Emergency that he once stood on the brink of suicide. Roman, now 32, opened up last year about a significant milestone: he had ceased taking antidepressants for the first time since he was a teenager at 15, and was embracing the journey to “understanding what [his] emotional side” really felt like

He delved into the nuances of his emotional shifts, noting that he was figuring out why he might “cry more” and “get a bit snappier at my friends”, while clarifying his stance: “I’m neither for or against taking anti-depressants, I’m about what is right for YOU and if it helps you then go for it.”

Metro reported on Roman’s reflections regarding how crucial medication had been in managing his mental health challenges. The former Capital Breakfast host disclosed that it supported him “through a long period of mental struggle”. In a message of solidarity and support, he mentioned that he was sharing this personal detail in hopes it might reassure others who are apprehensive about “anyone was ever worried about starting/stopping

BBC Breakfast’s Naga Munchetty was left red-faced as she was forced to apologise to her co-star after she was ‘called out’ on the show by her colleague Charlie Stayt

BBC Breakfast’s Naga Munchetty found herself a tad embarrassed on Friday’s programme. The blunder occurred after a live update from Australia about the perilous winds and floods, which led to a weather handover with Sarah Dorothy Keith-Lucas.

Naga reassured viewers: “Thankfully, nothing quite as traumatic here.” But she was taken aback by the sunny backdrop featuring palm tree silhouettes behind Sarah, exclaiming: “Wow! What a contrast, Sarah.”

Curious if the image was from the previous day, given the less-than-stellar weather at their Salford studio, Naga was astonished when Sarah clarified: “It’s not this morning in Salford, but it is this morning. It looks like this in some parts of the country.”

Charlie was quick to joke with Naga on BBC Breakfast (

Naga couldn’t hide her surprise, questioning: “Really?! We have palm trees here?!” Sarah confirmed that indeed we do, pinpointing Essex as the location of the photo. Post-forecast, Naga swiftly offered an apology, saying: ” I apologise if you heard some sniggering during your forecast. Someone (Charlie) was laughing at me for not knowing that we have numerous, thousands, of palm trees here in the UK. I didn’t know!”

Sarah responded: “Yeah there we go, you have to go and visit some palm tree places I think.”, reports the Express. Grateful, Naga thanked Sarah and vowed to visit spots across the UK with exotic-looking trees to broaden her horizons.

Charlie Stayt seized the opportunity for a cheeky jibe at Naga, quipping to the audience: “If you’ve seen a palm tree, send us a picture. Extraordinary, extraordinary thing.”

Naga played along, prompting viewers to share their photos and glanced at Charlie with a grin on her face, catching on to his light-hearted teasing.

She gave him a sharp look while Charlie chuckled to himself, promptly shifting gears to their upcoming segment. Yet Naga’s palm tree banter did catch the eyes of those tuning in from home

Comments from the public started popping up, with one viewer writing: “We have palm trees in the garden naga [sic]”.

Someone else tweeted a scenic photo as proof, captioning it: “Palm trees in the north west Scotland village of Plockton taken on 19 January in 9 degree sunshine.”
