David Hasselhoff has admitted that his marriage collapsed due to his alcohol problems.

Hasselhoff and actress wife Pamela Bach filed for divorce last week after 16 years of marriage, citing "irreconcilable differences". But Hasselhoff told German newspaper Das Neue Blatt about the effect his drinking had on his marriage and explained: "Alcohol destroyed everything."

The TV star has publicly struggled with drinking problems in recent years, admitting that he hit "rock bottom" in 2002 during a drinking binge that almost killed him. He checked himself into a number of rehab clinics since but kept falling off the wagon and in 2004 was charged with drunk driving.

Hasselhoff told the German paper: "I went through a horrible time during which I hated myself. I caused a lot of pain for Pamela through my behavior."
