HASSELHOFF WAS ATTRACTED TO PRINCESS DIANA

BAYWATCH star DAVID HASSELHOFF was immediately attracted to DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES when they first met, and insists she was "smitten" with him. Hasselhoff first met the late British royal in 1993 and claims there was a strong physical attraction between them, even though she was married to PRINCE CHARLES. He tells American publication People, "I felt like she was a little girl caught up in this whirlwind. I saw this little girl who just wanted to be a person, but (was) caught in this shell. "She was smitten with me since I am so tall. I was smitten with her since she was so tall." When asked if there was a sexual attraction he adds enthusiastically, "Absolutely!"
