Baywatch star Jeremy Jackson’s ex wife Loni Willison rummages through litter bins and holds a ‘pipe’ on streets of LA

BAYWATCH star Jeremy Jackon’s ex wife Loni Willison has been spotted rummaging through litter bins in a series of shocking pictures.

The former swimwear model, 40, who has been homeless since 2016, could be seen clutching what appeared to be a pipe in her painful looking hands.

Loni, who was wearing very large, ripped trousers, was pushing a shopping trolley full of her worldly possessions.

The heartbreaking images show her searching in the large bins, presumably for something to eat or help make her life easier.

It’s not the first time Loni – who is now completely unrecognisable from her glam bombshell days – has been seen walking the streets looking for food.

Downward spiral

Things took a downwards turn in 2016, when Loni – who was an assistant at a cosmetic surgery center in Los Angeles - reportedly had a mental breakdown.

She lost her job, apartment, and car due to the crisis and was forced to live on the streets.

Loni began using drugs and battled an addiction to meth and alcohol.

Heartbreakingly she once claimed she makes herself look as dirty as possible to avoid being sexually abused on the street.

“I get robbed all the time. People take my stuff. I basically make myself as dirty as possible so that no one attacks me," she told the .

“The dirtier I am the better. Smelly, too. If I do those two things, that seems to work.

“I cut off my hair, too, to look different. I cut it myself. But I have been attacked, that's bound to happen, too.”

Her once stunning looks have become ravaged by addiction and she has lost several teeth.

Showbiz marriage

Prior to her homelessness, Loni was married to actor Jeremy Jackson.

Jeremy played Hobie Buchanan in Baywatch from 1991 to 1999 alongside his onscreen father David Hasselhoff and stars like Pamela Anderson, Donna D’Errico, and Yasmine Bleeth.

The former child star, already had a history of drug addiction when he met Loni, which had begun during his time as a teenager on Baywatch.

He had been arrested for manufacturing methamphetamine at 19, had spent 90 days in jail for possession and completed five stints in rehab.

Loni was a model at the time, who graced the cover of fitness magazines in skimpy sportswear and swimsuits.

Sad end

The two wed in 2012 and split in 2014 after Jeremy’s alleged attack on her at their West Hollywood home.

She later claimed he strangled and beat her, leaving her with two broken ribs, an injured neck, and scratches on her face and body.

They split after the alleged attack but she decided not to press charges.

While Loni is still battling her addictions, her ex-husband is managing to stay clean and is now a leading figure in LA’s fitness scene, posting musclebound pictures on his Instagram page.

He has refused to comment on his ex-wife's plight when asked on previous occasions but another ex, Cindy Kovacs, slammed the actor for refusing to help Loni after their split in 2014.

She told the Sun: “It’s really sad what happened to Loni and she never got the help she needs.

“He didn't do anything. It was worth nothing to him. He didn't give a s**t. It was appalling, sickening."
