David Hasselhoff has pulled on his Welsh rugby jersey for St David's Day and told his Twitter followers we're headed for a Grand Slam.

But the former Baywatch actor doesn't want us to get ahead of ourselves and says we've got to think about beating Scotland first.

Speaking poolside from his LA mansion, the dad of two known to fans around the world as The Hoff said in a Twitter video: "Back in 2012, Wales won the Grand Slam.

"Now, we've got two games to go – Scotland and Ireland, then they're going to win the Grand Slam again.

"But I want you all – everybody in Wales and everybody behind Wales - to think about beating Scotland. Put that in your mind first and then we'll go onto Ireland.

" Cymru am byth !"

The Hoff is married to Hayley Roberts from Glynneath. The couple wed in Italy in July 2018 seven years after meeting in Cardiff when she asked for his autograph.

Back in 2011 The Hoff, who was best known for his roles on Knightrider and Baywatch, was a judge on Britain's Got Talent and when the auditions were taking place in Cardiff, Debenhams' shop assistant, Hayley Roberts, caught his eye as she was in Cardiff for a drink with her sister, Natasha.

Hayley asked The Hoff for a picture and they enjoyed their first, four-day-date in the Swiss Alps.

The couple live in the Hollywood Hills and their neighbours have included Justin Bieber, Stevie Wonder and the Kardashians.
