The cause of Pamela Bach’s death has been officially disclosed, three weeks following her unexpected passing on March 5.
The former wife of “Baywatch” star David Hasselhoff tragically died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, as indicated by the death certificate acquired by TMZ.
The certificate classified Bach’s death as a suicide and revealed that she used a revolver; it also noted that she was subsequently cremated.
According to law enforcement sources, relatives of Bach grew concerned after not hearing from her, prompting them to check on her at her Los Angeles residence, where her body was discovered.
She was declared dead at the scene, and it was reported that she left no suicide note.
At the time of her passing, Bach was 62 years old and had two daughters—Hayley, 32, and Taylor Ann, 34—with Hasselhoff, to whom she was married for 17 years.
Following the tragedy, a neighbor recounted the chaotic scene after Hayley allegedly discovered her mother and described her as “hysterical.” Hayley later expressed her grief on social media, sharing her heart-wrenching thoughts about her late mother.
As the family navigates this sorrowful time, they are asking for privacy while they grieve.
