We look to find out what happened to her by retracing the most significant moments of her career as an actress.

Born in 1968

Born in New York on 14 June 1968, before becoming a famous 'lifeguard' Yasmine Bleeth worked in many other TV projects between the 1980s and 1990s.

'I Ryan'

In this photo we see her posing with actor Michael Levin, her colleague on the set of the soap opera 'I Ryan', staring from 1985 to 1989. But her first ever acting experience came a few years earlier, in 1983, for the musical 'Hey Babe!'

Along with Grant Show

In the soap 'I Ryan', she starred alongside another TV star of the 1990s, Grant Show, who later became more famous through his role as Jake Hanson in 'Melrose Place'.

 

'A life to be lived'

Even before landing on the beaches of Malibu in 1991, the New York actress was part of the cast of another US soap opera, 'One Life to Live', which aired on ABC from 15 July 1968 to 13 January 2012, for two years.

The big occasion

In 1993, however, the big chance of a lifetime knocked on Yasmine Bleeth's door: she was chosen to be part of the cast of lifeguards and lifeguards in what would become the most important TV series of her later years.

Together with Pamela Anderson

Caroline Holden and C.J. Parker, formed the most famous lifeguard couple on television, gaining popularity with fans around the world, rescue after rescue.

More than "Baywatch"

'Baywatch' helped make her a worldwide celebrity in the 1990s, so much so that she also landed several roles outside the series, again for the small screen

 

TV films

Projects from those years include the dramatic thrillers 'A Face to Die for', 'Talk to Me' and 'Heaven or Vegas', all released in 1996. In 1997, she starred in the TV film 'Crowned and Dangerous.

Other television projects

After leaving 'Baywatch' in 1997, she starred in other television films, including 'The Lake' (1998), 'BASEketball' (1998), 'It Came from the Sky' (1999), 'Road rage' (1999) and 'Goodbye Casanova ' (2000).

Officially active until 2003

In the same years she took part in a few episodes of several TV series: 'Veronica's Closet' (1998), 'Nash Bridges' (1998 to 2000) and 'Titans' (2000 - pictured). Yasmine Bleeth's last appearance in a series was in 2003 in an episode of 'V.I.P.'.

In prison

In 2001, she was also convicted and imprisoned for possession of illegal substances. These problems certainly influenced her lack of screen presence in the following years.

Yasmine Bleeth's private life

As for her private life in 1996, during her peak years, there were rumours about her alleged love affair with actor Matthew Perry, who suddenly passed away in October 2023. Their brief affair was confirmed by several magazines including Page Six.

With Luke Perry

More well-known, however, is her relationship with another actor from a famous series of the time, Luke Perry, who also tragically and prematurely passed away in March 2019, and with whom Bleeth, according to the website whosdatedwho.com, appears to have dated from 1987 to 1988.

Married to Paul Cerrito

Subsequently, she married Paul Cerrito (pictured), owner of a s t r i p club, in 2003. The actress has always been very closed about her private life since the legal problems, so there is no information about any children.

Another possible film with Tori Spelling?

According to the IMDb website, in addition to taking part in 'Beautiful Evil' in 2014, Yasmine Bleeth also took part in the filming of the movie 'Kill with Me' directed by Cristian Toledo and opposite Tori Spelling (pictured), but, at the moment, the film does not appear to have been released.

In both 2016 and 2023, the actress was focus of attention, appearing in various magazines looking very different from what fans remember - as is only to be expected, given that a good thirty years have passed since the legendary beach rescues!
