Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff died by suicide, authorities determined
According to what law enforcement sources told TMZ, Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff was pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigators determined that she had died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
There was no reported sign of any message or suicide note. And, thus, no immediate explanation for this tragedy.
In 1985, Pamela Bach met David Hasselhoff on the set of Knight Rider. Four years later, in December of 1989, they married.
The two had a lengthy marriage, divorcing in 2006.
