Jeremy Jackson confesses he ‘smelled’ his female ‘Baywatch’ co-stars’ dirty swimsuits

Jeremy Jackson was just as bad as his “Baywatch” character, spilling the gross — and intimate — thing he used to do when his female co-stars weren’t around.

In the “After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun” documentary that airs August 28, Jackson, 43, who played Hobie Buchannon on the popular ’90s beach series, revealed he’d sneak into the actress’ trailers when they went home for the day and “smell” their worn bathing suits.

“I would usually sneak into [the women’s] trailers after they were done and grab their dirty bathing suits. Let’s just say I smelled every [bleep] on Baywatch,” Jackson shared, adding he found one “Baywatch” babe’s scent irresistible.

“And Nicole [Eggert] was the big one, for sure,” he said in the clip. “We had a very intimate moment, her and I, that she never knew about.”

After the shocking revelation, producers spilled the beans to Eggert, 52, who is battling breast cancer after being diagnosed in 2023. The actress played Summer Quinn on the show and wasn’t shocked to learn about Jackson’s confession.

“I knew Jeremy very well, this surprises me not at all,” she responded in the documentary.

Jackson joined “Baywatch” in 1990 when he was only 10, beating out several other child actors, including Leonardo DiCaprio, for the role. He grew up on the set, remaining on the show for its entirety until 1999.

In the documentary, he shared that “Nicole was the one I guess you could say I looked up to. She would come to work late and not give a f–k.”

Eggert laughed off Jackson’s habit.

“I’m not even mad at 14-year-old Jeremy. I mean, puberty on a show like that?” she joked. “I love grown-up Jeremy for being honest about 14-year-old Jeremy.”

Jackson, who played the son of David Hasselhoff’s character, struggled with crystal meth addiction while filming the series.

“I remember David saying, ‘Are you smoking pot or something?’ And I was [thinking] like, Jesus, they think I’m smoking pot? I could never tell them the truth. What would they think?'” Jackson recalled in the doc. “When you haven’t slept for five days and you’ve been smoking crystal meth, having somebody look you in the eyes and say ‘Dude, are you okay?’ is like the worst thing that can happen.”

Jackson also served time in 2017 for his involvement in an alleged stabbing. “I was spiraling down for sure. My life slipped through my hands like sand,” he explained. “Would I do it all again? Probably not.”

Several cast members reunited for the premiere in Los Angeles on Monday — with a few superstars, including the series’ breakout bombshell Pamela Anderson, 57, noticeably absent.

The “Barb Wire” star, who played C.J. Parker on the television series from 1992 to 1997, didn’t do any interviews for the docuseries; however, she appears in a never-aired interview, in which she teases, “I’m really proud of everything I’ve done — almost.”

Anderson isn’t the only memorable “Baywatch” star who missed out on the reunion.

David Hasselhoff, who played Mitch Buchannon, wasn’t at the premiere, but he did make an appearance in the doc.

“The show…it really wasn’t good but we made it good because we had passion,” he quipped.

“After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun” is now streaming on Hulu.
