HOLLYWOOD - David Hasselhoff's legal team is convinced his bitter ex-wife leaked a video of the drunken Baywatch star growling abuse at his teenage daughter to the media--and plans to prove it in court.

Pamela Bach insists she didn't even know the damning tape existed until she saw it on news show Extra and claims her daughter's boyfriend, who works for the program, is the culprit.

Appearing on CNN show Larry King Live last night, Bach blasted reports she and her attorney, Debra Opri, had leaked the video, shot by her 17-year-old daughter Taylor, claiming it was embarrassing and she'd have preferred it hadn't been made public.

Opri says, "I heard that the boyfriend used to be a P.A. with Extra... All we know is we've been asking for it and I had to rely upon third-party sources."

Bach adds, "I also heard his (Hasselhoff) assistant and his agent was there."

But Hasselhoff's lawyers, Melvin Goldsman and Marci Levine, aren't buying that argument.

Goldsman says, "We're absolutely certain who released the tape and that is Pamela and maybe her lawyer.

"She said she didn't learn about the tape until late Wednesday. Well we have information she was contacting reporters early Wednesday morning, indicating her availability later in that day to discuss the contents of the tape."
