David Hasselhoff is affectionately referred to as “The Hoff” by many, but to his daughters, he is simply “dad.” The celebrated actor, now 69, gained widespread recognition for his iconic roles in Baywatch and The Young and the Restless, among numerous other television programs and films. He shares two daughters, Hayley and Taylor, with his late ex-wife Pamela Bach. Tragically, Pamela passed away in March 2025, leaving behind a legacy intertwined with her family’s journey in the entertainment industry.

Both of David’s daughters have made significant strides in the entertainment world, following in their father’s illustrious footsteps. The talented sisters even had the opportunity to star alongside their famous father in the A&E reality series The Hasselhoffs, which aired in 2010. This series provided a unique glimpse into their lives as David guided Hayley and Taylor in their own pursuits within the entertainment field. Despite the show’s short run, their experiences helped shape their careers, showcasing their resilience and ambition in an industry that can be incredibly demanding.

Although the reality show may have been canceled, both Hayley and Taylor have continued to thrive and achieve their own successes. Below, we explore everything you need to know about David Hasselhoff’s talented daughters, their careers, and their contributions to the entertainment landscape.

Discover the Accomplishments of Hayley Hasselhoff

Hayley has successfully carved out her own niche in the entertainment industry as both an actress and a celebrated plus-sized model. After the family reality show concluded, Hayley transitioned into acting, landing roles in various television series including Huge, Curvy Girls: Stripped Bare, and Why Women Kill. In addition to her television work, she has also appeared in films such as More than Puppy Love, which featured her mother, Pam, and Space Samurai: Oasis. Currently, Hayley is focusing primarily on her modeling career, having started modeling at the young age of 14. In April 2021, she made headlines by becoming the first plus-sized model to pose nude for Playboy magazine, a groundbreaking moment in the fashion industry. During an interview with the Daily Mail, she expressed that this experience made her feel “empowered” and proud of her choices.

Reflecting on her historic shoot, Hayley shared, “The day was fun but I look back at it more as empowering. I felt very empowered when I left set; I felt grounded and had taken ownership of my body.” She further noted the unwavering support of her parents throughout her career, stating, “My mum and my dad are always very supportive in everything that I have done. To see the progression of where I’ve gone, to where I am today, I think they’re both very, very supportive and believe in me and all the choices I make in my own career, just like I do for them.” In addition to her acting and modeling endeavors, Hayley is also the host of the podcast Redefine You With Hayley Hasselhoff, where she engages in meaningful conversations with various figures in the entertainment industry about personal well-being and self-acceptance. Notable guests have included Lucas Bravo, Elisa Donovan, and Kevin McHale.

Explore the Career Journey of Taylor Ann Hasselhoff

Much like her sister and father, Taylor has also established herself as a talented actress. Her impressive resume includes appearances in Rich Kids of Beverly Hills, Sharknado 4, Sunken City, and More than Puppy Love. From a young age, Taylor made her mark by appearing in several episodes of her father’s iconic series Baywatch. In a full-circle moment, she later appeared as a nurse in multiple episodes of The Young and the Restless. Recently, Taylor has diversified her career by venturing into the real estate market. She collaborates with renowned Los Angeles real estate expert Aaron Kirman and his team, focusing on the sale of luxurious multi-million dollar properties. Their endeavors are featured in the CNBC series Listing Impossible, which Taylor also stars in. The show’s first season premiered last year, showcasing the dynamics of luxury real estate.

In February 2020, Taylor shared her thoughts with HollywoodLife about the new series and her initial hesitance to leverage her family connections for career advancement. “There are certain areas that I wanted to just be Tay, not only going to [my dad’s] network,” she explained. Taylor emphasized the importance of aiming high in her career, stating, “And I think that was where Aaron was saying, ‘No, go after the big buck. Go after people with a lot of money, because we do luxury real estate and we are the number one team in all of Southern California, the number five in the nation that does luxury real estate. So those are the people that you got to go to. Shoot for higher because that’s what you’re capable of.’” Taylor revealed that her journey into real estate began after assisting her mother in leasing a home, leading her to intern for two years in the field. “It felt like this incredible path,” she recalled. “I fell so in love with helping people and helping them get to that new chapter in their life.”
