Leaked allegations of infidelity and drug abuse
Thursday, 26 October 2006
Lurid details of David Hasselhoff's ongoing divorce from his estranged wife Pamela Bach were inadvertently entered into public record on Wednesday.
A 66-page filing by Hasselhoff's lawyers alleges that Barbara, 43, tested positive for cocaine two months ago and claims that she was intoxicated at their daughter Taylor Ann's sweet 16 party last May.
The documents also include numerous allegations of infidelity committed by Hasselhoff, 54, as well as alcohol, drug and physical abuse by him against his wife over 16 years of marriage.
Under court order by Judge Mark Juhas earlier this year, information pertaining to the couple's children would be removed from public record. But large portions of Wednesday’s filing, which also mentions concerns by both parents about how their daughters are being raised, were released by mistake.
"We're all outraged. This was a horrible mistake on behalf of the court," Hasselhoff's attorney Melvin Goldsman told PEOPLE. "David would never intentionally release anything that would be hurtful to his children. He's quite disturbed about this."
Bach's lawyer, Susan Wiesner, stated: "I consider this an intentional attempt to besmirch (Bach's) character and reputation. She's a good mother and she wants to protect her children. I have no idea how these documents became public."
A statement from Bach was not immediately available.
Citing irreconcilable differences, Hasselhoff filed for divorce from Bach on Jan. 12. Bach filed her own divorce paperwork the following day, which included claims of domestic violence. The couple currently share joint custody of their two daughters.
