Hasselhoff’s New Secret Weapon?

David Hasselhoff is speaking for the first time since his drunken Las Vegas video, and “Extra” is there with new details from a family insider.

“It's an ongoing process and I'm doing very, very well, guys,” Hasselhoff told us.

Our cameras caught The Hoff leaving popular Malibu eatery Gladstone's, where he had a special message for his supporters.

“Thank you to all you fans and friends who've supported me and my kids," he said. "It's all going well and the truth will be told soon.”

No word on whether that comment was in reference to his ongoing custody battle with his ex-wife, Pamela Bach.

Hasselhoff's lawyers have convinced a family insider – the couple's former nanny – to testify on his behalf.

His custody rights are temporarily suspended following the release of that disturbing video tape, which was recorded by one of his teenage daughters.

The custody battle goes back to court on May 21.
