Pamela Bach, beloved actress, mother, and friend, passed away in Los Angeles at 62. Known for her warmth both on and off screen, she was a familiar face on television in the 1980s and ’90s, with roles in The Young and the Restless, Cheers, T.J. Hooker, and cult films like Appointment with Fear.

She met David Hasselhoff while co-starring in Knight Rider, later marrying him and raising two daughters. Though they separated in 2006, Bach remained a steady presence in Hollywood, admired for her grace, professionalism, and kindness.

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.”
Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Bach began acting in the 1970s. She and Hasselhoff have two daughters together.
Her acting credits included soap opera The Young and the Restless, Cheers, The Fall Guy, T.J. Hooker, Superboy and Viper.
Her daughter, Hayley Amber Hasselhoff, posted a photo of her parents on Instagram, with a white star, in apparent tribute to her mother.
In Bach’s last Instagram post, published on New Year’s Eve, she wrote about being excited to welcome 2025.
She said she was also excited to watch her granddaughter, London, “grow and seeing her smile light up my world is truly the greatest blessing”.
“May 2025 be filled with beautiful moments, laughter, and all the blessings your hearts can hold,” she continued.
“Here’s to a year of making cherished memories, spreading joy, and embracing every precious moment!”
Bach’s representative, Sharon Kelly, told TMZ she was shocked by her death.
“My heart goes out to her family, her beautiful daughters and granddaughter who Pamela constantly gushes about and loves so dearly,” she said.

Fans and colleagues remember her as someone who lit up every room and made even small roles memorable. Her legacy lives on through her work, her daughters, and the many lives she touched.
