Bach-Hasselhoff and the 72-year-old singer were married from 1989 to 2006 when she filed for divorce due to irreconcilable differences.
Disagreements arose among the pair, and the two argued frequently over spousal support until 2017. They shared two daughters and were given custody of each after their separation was finalized.
But it’s clear that their divorce didn’t mean the love was completely lost.
Later, the actress told the Associated Press, “I’ve always loved him and always will, and have love and compassion for him,” before adding, “It’s a very, very sad day, but a day to move on.”
In 2024, she became a first-time grandmother when her daughter Taylor welcomed her first child, London, even going on Instagram during the holiday season to show a little extra love for her “precious granddaughter.”
“Our first Christmas with [London] was absolutely magical,” she wrote. “The day was filled with love, joy, and precious moments with family. We cherish these wonderful memories we made.”
