Hasselhoff's kids were concerned about David-Hayley's age gap

Highlights

  • The 59-year-old actor is currently dating former shop assistant Hayley Roberts, 31, and his children Taylor, 21, and Hayley, 18, admit they were initially worried about their relationship.
  • Hayley said: "We made sure we spent lots of time with her before we made a judgment. But it was obviously a concern."
  • Taylor added: "Naturally we were a bit unsure, but the more we've got to know her, the less of an issue her age is."
  • Despite their concerns, Taylor and Hayley are convinced their dad's new romance is "genuine" – because his girlfriend has never heard of Baywatch, the hit 90s show which David starred in.
  • Taylor told Closer magazine: "She didn't even know what it was. And I thought, 'Hallelujah!' And she genuinely didn't know – she wasn't pretending like other women who are just after fame and money."
  • Hayley added: "We think she's genuine. Our dad's been hurt so many times, we are just happy to see him so happy. He's the best boyfriend in the world."
