LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Taylor Ann Hasselhoff-Fiore is stepping up to handle the legal matters following the tragic death of her mother, Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff.

The estimated value of the estate stands at approximately $840,000, though that figure could change depending on private trusts that might fall outside the probate process.
Pamela, an actress known for her roles in 'Baywatch,' 'Knight Rider,' and 'The Young and the Restless,' died earlier this month by suicide. She was found unresponsive in her home by family members after being out of contact for some time. Emergency responders pronounced her dead at the scene due to a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
She was married to 'Baywatch' star David Hasselhoff from 1989 to 2006, and the couple had two children together before a highly publicized divorce.
Pamela Bach’s daughter found screaming in distress after discovering mother’s body
A heartbreaking scene unfolded at Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff’s Hollywood Hills home as her daughter, overcome with grief, was heard screaming and crying after finding her mother’s lifeless body.
Neighbor Hiromi Osiecki, who witnessed the aftermath, described the scene as pure chaos. Speaking to the Daily Mail, she recalled seeing paramedics arrive around 9 pm while a young woman believed to be one of Pamela’s daughters was in a state of total hysteria.
“She was yelling, screaming, crying on the street,” Osiecki said. “She was saying, I just want to get my car.” Osiecki noted that police attempted to calm her, bringing her inside the house, but she kept moving in and out, visibly distraught.
Osiecki and her husband, John, said they had previously seen Pamela’s daughter Hayley living with her mother years ago and believed her car was in the driveway that night. They also claimed that emergency responders had been called to the house multiple times in the past, though the reasons were unclear.
Hiromi last saw Pamela just two days before her death and noticed she looked “sad.” Her husband, however, was still shocked by the news, saying Pamela was normally talkative and friendly, especially when walking her dogs.
