LOS ANGELES (TNND) — Pamela Bach, an actress formerly married to "Baywatch" star David Hasselhoff from 1989 to 2006 has died. She was 62.

The Los Angeles medical examiner's office reported she died Wednesday but the cause is still under investigation.

Before appearing alongside Hasselhoff on "Baywatch" for 10 seasons, she met her future husband in the series "Knight Rider" and went on to star in "The Young and the Restless."

She is survived by two daughters she shares with Hasselhoff, Taylor and Hayley.

Hasselhoff filed for divorce in January 2006 and the former couple had a contentious split, with Bach accusing him of domestic abuse. A video of Hasselhoff drunkenly eating a burger led to him temporarily losing visitation privileges with his daughters, but they were restored after two weeks. The actor acknowledged the video, shot by one of his daughters, showed him during an alcohol relapse but he denied abuse allegations at the time.

A message to David Hasselhoff's representative was not immediately returned.

In one of her last posts on Instagram, she celebrated her family and said her "heart is full of gratitude, especially for my precious grandbaby."

"As we step into 2025, my heart is full of gratitude, especially for my precious grandbaby, London," she wrote on New Year's Eve. "Watching her grow and seeing her smile light up my world is truly the greatest blessing. My wish for all of you this year is health, happiness, and an abundance of love. May 2025 be filled with beautiful moments, laughter, and all the blessings your hearts can hold."
