The investigation into David Hasselhoff's ex-wife Pamela Bach's cause of death is officially over, with authorities ruling that there was no foul play involved.
The late actress took her final breath on March 5 at 61, dying from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Her shocking passing came shortly after she acknowledged one of her daughters' Instagram posts with a positive emoji.
Following her death, sources revealed Pamela Bach had desperately tried to return to TV with a reality series. Unfortunately, the project faced too many hurdles and never made it to filming.
Pamela Bach's Cause Of Death Ruled As Suicide

According to the Los Angeles County death certificate, Pamela died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head using a revolver. Her cause of death was ruled as suicide, with the document noting her body had been cremated.
As for how Pamela's death was exposed, law enforcement sources shed light on the tragic event. They revealed the late actress's family could not reach her, nor had they heard from her in a while. Without hesitating, these relatives rushed over to her home for a wellness check but found her dead body instead.
Paramedics pronounced Pamela dead once they arrived at the scene. During her life, the entertainer gained recognition for her roles in "Baywatch," "Sirens," and "Knight Rider," where she met her former husband. Pamela and David tied the knot in 1989 and ended their union in 2006, per TMZ.
The Late Actress Wanted To Return To TV

Following Pamela's heartbreaking demise, sources revealed she had been working on a reality TV project. The Blast covered the story, reporting the late actress attempted to launch a show about her and her celebrity friends.
The project involved Pamela and her pals embracing their golden years in Hollywood Hills. It would showcase them battling the challenges of aging while ensuring to have fun and live their best lives. Insiders noted the actress worked tirelessly to cast A-listers in their 60s for the show.
Unfortunately, getting the cast she wanted was a significant challenge. Pamela even went as far as traveling to Europe to persuade some of her friends to become part-time cast members in the show. She allegedly opened her doors, offering them a place to crash while filming in L.A.
Pamela's Show Never Made It To Production

Besides her friends in Europe, Pamela tried to recruit Hollywood veteran Gary Busey as a cast member. Unfortunately, his commitment to the project was inconsistent. The challenges continued with Pamela's attempts to enlist proper attorneys.
Additionally, she had to work out a deal with production companies, hurdles that made it difficult for Pamela's project to become a reality. Despite spending about a year and a half of her blood and sweat to get the show rolling, it never made it to filming.
However, Pamela's failed reality TV show was the last thing on her family's mind following her death. Her oldest daughter, Taylor Ann Hasselhoff-Fiore, swiftly took charge after her death to become an administrator for her estate.
Reports noted she filed legal documents to that aspect, claiming Pamela died without a will.

As stated, Pamela's family discovered her body at her $2 million home in Hollywood Hills on March 5. Paramedics arrived at Pamela's residence shortly after 10 p.m., responding to a call about an unconscious woman.
It was unclear why the mother of two chose to end her life as there was no note discovered at the scene. Additionally, she appeared to be in good spirits on social media, with her last interaction on her youngest daughter Hayley's Instagram post.
The entertainer's child flaunted her beauty in a low-cut black dress on March 4, earning Pamela's approval. She acknowledged the post with a heart-shaped eyes emoji, and her final comment has since garnered multiple condolences and R.I.P wishes.

"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."
"Here's to a year of making cherished memories, spreading joy, and embracing every precious moment!" Pamela concluded her post. She is survived by her ex-husband, their two daughters, and her granddaughter.
