The marriage between Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff and Hollywood star David Hasselhoff (72), which lasted from 1989 to 2006, produced two daughters: Taylor-Ann (34) and Hayley Hasselhoff.

It was the latter who probably had to endure the worst moments of her life on Wednesday. As the Daily Mail reported, the 32-year-old is said to have made the terrible discovery during a visit.

Her mother had previously taken her own life with a firearm. This was also confirmed by the autopsy report now published by the Los Angeles coroner's office.

Hiromi Osiecki (65), the neighbor of the deceased, claimed that the emergency services arrived at the 2-million-dollar property at around 9 pm. A young woman kept going in and out "screaming and crying", she said. "She was hysterical, screaming, shouting and crying in the street."

The neighbors reported that Hayley had once lived in the house with her mother. They would have recognized the Hasselhoff daughter by her car.

Osiecki and her husband claim to have seen Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff in their front garden on Monday. However, the actress's own family did not hear from her for several days, which is why they decided to visit her on Wednesday.

Hayley Hasselhoff posted a photo on her Instagram story in memory of her mother. Ex-husband David also spoke out on Facebook.

"Our family is deeply saddened by the passing of Pamela Hasselhoff. We are grateful for the love and support," wrote the "Baywatch" star.
