Inside David Hasselhoff’s daughter Hayley’s glam life of designer clothes as she makes cover of Playboy as a curve model

HAYLEY Hasselhoff is best known for being one of Baywatch actor David Hasselhoff's two daughters.

But the 28-year-old star is making a name for herself - and recently made history as the first plus-size model to grace the cover of Playboy in Europe.

Speaking of her decision to model for the May issue of Playboy Germany, Hayley told The Times: “I thought: I’m 28 years old. I have my own rights over my body and I know how I like to celebrate it.

“Size inclusivity is so important for women who may look at Playboy as a magazine that represents an idealistic beauty standard. 

“It represents what is desirable and celebrated. So for me to be able to say, ‘That also includes all different body shapes and sizes,’ was an incredible opportunity.” 

Hayley - who briefly appeared on X Factor Celebrity in 2019 - also recently spoke on ITV’s Lorraine about how “empowering” she found the shoot, and being photographed by the legendary photographer Ellen von Unwerth in Paris.

She said: "I think it's very empowering to be asked to do something like this when we're all worried about our own self-image, it's a revolution.

“It was a great honor, and it’s a message for curvy women: to know they are wanted and desired.”

But, as well as being extremely body-confident, Hayley has a very glamorous life, splitting her time between west Hollywood and Kent.

Glam globetrotting

Hayley grew up in sunny Los Angeles, with her Hollywood actor dad, David, and her sister, Taylor, 31, as well as her mum, Pamela Bach, before her parents divorced in 2006.

She’s been traveling back and forth between the UK and California for the last 10 years, although living predominantly in the Kent countryside with her British actor and photographer boyfriend, Dominic Charles Farrell, for the last few years.

But, she moved back to Los Angeles earlier this year, and has been having to keep her long-distance relationship going with Dominic during the pandemic.

Aside from that, Hayley travels all over the world with her work, often posing in swimwear.

She went to Paris for the Playboy photoshoot, where she posed outside the Arc de Triomphe.

Luxury plus-sized clothing

Hayley is often seen looking super-glam and gorgeous, all dolled-up on her Instagram.

“I’ve always been the one wearing heels at all hours and always wanting to be dolled up,” she said.

And some of the clothes she wears are from the most high-end plus-size brands available, including Eradine.

One long, black kimono that Hayley owns from Eradine will set you back £312.

Another luxury plus-size brand that Hayley is a fan of is Marina Rinaldi, and her brown, leather jacket costs £445.

But it’s not just designer clothes that Hayley wears, as she’s also often seen in high-street brands like ASOS.

In fact, she said that her favourite brands - especially when it comes to bras big enough for her 36GG breasts - are Figleaves, Curvy Kate, Simply Be and, of course, Marks & Spencer!

“Curve collections in the UK high street are so advanced compared to America,” she said, as a UK size 16-18 herself.

Dating life

Hayley and Dominic have been together for over three years.

In December 2019, they were spotted sharing a romantic date at Winter Wonderland in London’s Hyde Park - a date she described as “literally a Love Actually movie.”

Before they got together, Hayley was linked to Geordie Shore star Kyle Christie in 2017.

Hayley and Holly Hagan's ex were constantly posting loved-up selfies on Instagram.

However, it all turned out to be part of a joke for ITV2 show, Showmance, in which celebrities were paired up and made to fake a relationship to fool fans.
