David Hasselhoff was seen being pushed in a wheelchair on Monday, weeks after the tragic death of his ex-wife Pamela Bach.
The actor, 72, was spotted being wheeled along by airport attendants in both Cancun, Mexico and Los Angeles.
The Bay Watch icon leaned heavily on his wife Hayley Roberts, 45, as he exited the airport without a wheelchair.
According to US Weekly, the actor is scheduled to undergo knee replacement surgery next week, which explains his fragile state.
‘David is living on borrowed time and has lived hard,’ a source told the Daily Mail.
‘He had a life that people could only dream of but he also spent decades self-medicating through alcohol and other substances, which he does regret.’
The photos of the actor come shortly after the cause of death of his ex wife Pamela Bach has been officially confirmed after she died aged 61 on March 6.
Bach, who was married to Hasselhoff for 17 years, was best known for her roles in Baywatch and Knight Rider and for being a housemate on Celebrity Big Brother in the UK.
The Los Angeles County death certificate, seen by TMZ, reveals she died by suicide from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head on March 5.
Bach was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics, who had been called to her home in LA. She has since been cremated.
After her death, Hasselhoff, 72, who shares two daughters, Taylor, 34, and Hayley, 32, with Bach said he was ‘deeply saddened’ over the loss in a statement shared with TMZ.
He continued: ‘We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support during this difficult time, but we kindly request privacy as we grieve and navigate through this challenging time.’
Their daughter Taylor shared an Instagram tribute the following week and said she would ‘do anything in the world’ to hug her late mother again.
She added: ‘My forever angel, you are my best friend, my whole heart, my everything. I promise to make you proud and celebrate you every day.’
In her Instagram tribute, Hayley said her heart had been ‘shattered’ but ‘somehow feels whole’ in the knowledge her late mother will always be her ‘friend, heart and whole world.’
She added: ‘This yearning is unlike anything I’ve ever known, but I need you to know that I will love you in every form. I’m choosing to be strong for you to make you proud.’
