David Hasselhoff Released From Hospital, Continues Pattern Of Denial
May 25 2010, Published 4:33 a.m. ET
David Hasselhoff was released from the hospital late Monday, RadarOnline.com has learned.
As we reported exclusively, the Hoff had been taken to an LA-area hospital by his daughter Hayley.
He had been drinking for the past three days, continuing a pattern of alcohol abuse that has plagued him for years.
And the Baywatch star is also continuing his pattern of denial, always finding at least one media outlet gullible enough to print his always-creative denials.
But RadarOnline.com learned exclusively that the Hoff was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Sunday by his daughter Hayley.
Hayley has had to drive her father to the hospital previously after his booze benders, which have become an open secret in Hollywood.
“The Hoff had his people call photographers this morning to take pictures of him,” one source close to the situation told us. “He simply will not admit to his problem.
“And the sad thing is how it’s affecting his children. Now they are being told to go along with his denials – but living with an alcoholic takes a big toll on kids.”
Hoff has been hospitalized for alcohol poisoning five times in the past five years. He also went on a major drinking spree last year in England after attending Simon Cowell’s 50th birthday bash. That also landed him in the hospital.
