Celebrity Justice
Hoff: I Got Full Custody of My Kids

With a colossal smile plastered across his face, David Hasselhoff emerged from a Los Angeles County Superior courtroom moments ago and told our cameras he was awarded primary physical and sole legal custody of his two daughters -- apparently putting an end to one of the most bitter and public custody battles of all time.

After randomly proclaiming today "a beautiful day to go the beach," Hoff told the media, "The judge said today 'enough, enough is enough, these children have been through enough.'" Hoff then discussed his beach plans, and never one to let an opportunity slip through his fingers -- used the attention to plug "America's Got Talent."

Moments after the judge's decision, Hoff's ex-wife Pamela Bach was spotted crying in the hallway. She was overheard telling her lawyer Debra Opri, "What am I gonna say? I just lost my kids." Opri then escorted Bach into the restroom, where they remained for several minutes. A short time later, Bach appeared in front of the media with her game face on -- keeping her composure as she smiled and waved.

185. 97. #44: Michael Knight was married to Catherine Hickland, not Pamela Bach.

He was married to Pamela Bach before Catherine Hickland. Divorced from both of them now and engaged to me. (I wish)

186. Does anybody remember in the movie "Joe Dirt," when Joe finally met his real parents and they were like opportunist to the situation. Ever notice how similar that is to Hoff's situation?

188. Many things caused Pam Bach to loose custody of her teen daughters....the verbal abuse to Dave, the drugs ( even court docs of her testing positive for Coke). Lots of supported court statements of bizarre behavior, like accusing Dave of having an affair with their Nanny...she was explsoive and verbal to Dave about this infront of the kids. And, also in front of the Nanny

I believe the girls themselves didn't want to live with her too. And, the the last and final straw for the girls was the leaked tape of David drunk, and Pam using the excuse one of the girls turned it in to the tabloids. When in fact Pam did.

189. I wonder if he is indeed an alcoholic. My guess is that he is either in recovery or a recovered alcoholic with a temporary fall off the wagon, as depicted in that video piece. Whatever the case is it either wasn't severe enough to warrant him not having the children, or she has issues that the judge considered more detrimental to the children's well being. It's so sad when divorces get this ugly. I feel so sorry for the children. In then end the bickering and fighting hurts them the most.

191. Dotiie Dame poster 186.

Dave has been very candid and open about being an alcoholic. And, recogizes and knows he has a problem. Dave was off the wagon when his daughter taped him, which he told her to do if he fell off the wagon so he could see what an idiot he is.........a reminder and focus as to why he should remain sober. The whole world got a reminder with that tape!!
