Pamela Bach, the former wife of actor David Hasselhoff, was “sad” and reclusive in the days before she died, a neighbor said. The former model and actress, who was married to Hasselhoff between 1989 and 2006, had lived a fairly subdued existence in recent years, but friends said they saw a change in her attitude in her last few weeks.
Her neighbor, who insisted on anonymity, said Bach was a quiet, reserved person but a nice person. In the weeks leading up to her death, though, she appeared openly depressed. “She wasn’t herself,” said the neighbor. “She was sad as if she was carrying a big weight. It was heartbreaking to see.”
Bach, with whom Hasselhoff had two daughters named Taylor-Ann and Hayley, had also experienced some personal troubles in the past few years, including illness and financial problems. The friends add she was attempting to rebuild her life but the burden of her issues appeared to catch up with her.
Baywatch and Knight Rider actor David Hasselhoff, also a huge Bach fan in the US, had not yet released a public statement on his passing. A close source, though, maintains that he was “devastated” about it. “David and Pamela fought on and off, but he always deeply loved her,” according to one of the actor’s close friends. “It’s a terrible time for him and their children.”
Bach’s passing has released an avalanche of tributes from friends, admirers, and fellow journalists, who recall her as a warm and lively individual. “Pamela was a force of nature and always had a good sense of humor,” said a close friend. “She dearly loved her daughters and was so proud of them.”
The neighbor who described Bach’s last days pointed out that she was a respected figure in the community. “Everyone here respected her privacy, but we all cared about her,” they stated. “It’s a huge loss for everyone who knew her.”
Though the causes of her death are still unclear, friends and family now believe it will enlighten others on the silent struggles of various individuals and encourage people to call out to their loved ones and support them in their troubled times.
The Hasselhoff family regrets the loss of their daughter, but they also have their sights set on commemorating her life and legacy. “She was an awesome mom and a fantastic person,” commented one of the family’s friends.
“Her memory will live on through her daughters and through the people whose lives she touched.” Bach’s death is a salutary reminder of the value of mental health and emotional well-being. She will not only be remembered for her glamorous history but also for her courage and love as a family woman.
