Hayden Panettiere Didn't Spend Holidays With Daughter: 'It's Heartbreaking'
Feb. 1 2019, Updated 2:01 p.m. ET
While Wladimir Klitschko spends quality daddy-daughter time in Barbados with his little girl Kaya, growing concerns are mounting for her mother Hayden Panettiere, who’s living her life thousands of miles away, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.
“It’s heartbreaking and challenging," a source revealed. "They didn’t spend the holidays together."
According to the insider, since the former Heroes star broke up with Klitschko 2018, their daughter has been living and going to school in Ukraine, the boxing champ’s native country.
“It’s disturbing and she will have to figure out how to manage this," the snitch dished about Panettiere's sticky situation. "It’s not an easy scenario.”
Even worse, the blonde beauty hasn’t been photographed with Kaya in a year, and according to our source Panettiere hasn’t seen her in about four months!
The couple will have to “make a decision” about co-parenting soon, said the source, who added the family of three plan to reunite in the U.S. next month.
“They’re two people who live miles apart much of the year. So these are big decisions and choices have to be made.”
And for the 29-year-old, who was with the superstar athlete for nine years, her Los Angeles home may not be an option.
“It may be a location that makes more sense,” continued the source. “If she decides to move to the UK, for example, it’s not an unrealistic place to continue working.”
As RadarOnline.com has reported, Panettiere’s family is “deeply concerned” about her relationship with new boyfriend Brian Hickerson, 28, who she hooked up with shortly after splitting with Klitschko in August 2018.
Although Hickerson denied there are any concerns from her family, a source close to the actress begs to differ.
“There’s still a lot of concern,” added a source. “When you see people circling around and not a positive influence, it is concerning.
“He exacerbates the issues she’s dealing with. Her decision-making is ‘what do I want to do now?’ He’s not helpful and that’s a big part of things.
“Him contributing to things does not help her in her evolution. It hinders her.”
Since the former Nashville actress moved back to the west coast she’s been spotted living a hard partying lifestyle, including going in and out of bars where Panettiere was caught puking over a railing after one too many cocktails, as RadarOnline.com previously reported exclusively.
In a shocking report, a panicked Panettiere called the cops on her boy toy for alleged assault and battery involving Hickerson and his father David in his home state of South Carolina. Although David told RadarOnline.com the incident “didn’t happen,” a source close to the young couple, who were last photographed Dec. 1, said “it’s no surprise if they are soft peddling everything.”
According to the source, the actress, who started her Hollywood career at a mere 11 months old, is “taking a break” despite being offered roles.
“She is floundering,” added the source, “and when you can’t quite decide, you need some guidance and solid ground — and I don’t think he Brian is a good influence.”
