Hayden Panettire Had Plans To Celebrate Her 37th Birthday With Her Daughter Kaya In Germany

The actress had planned to visit her 11-year-old daughter for her birthday week, while authorities in South Carolina investigate her sudden death.

  • On Sunday, actress Hayden Panettiere died suddenly at 36 in a South Carolina apartment. Her father, Skip Panettiere, remembered her as an "incredible light and a force of nature."
  • Panettiere had planned to travel to Germany to celebrate her 37th birthday on Friday with her 11-year-old daughter, Kaya. The trip was one of her most anticipated plans before her death.
  • Erick Orellana, who worked with Panettiere for three years, told Page Six that Kaya was "always her absolute priority" and "the absolute light of her life." Panettiere co-parented Kaya with former boxer Wladimir Klitschko.
  • Authorities are investigating the death, with the DEA joining the inquiry. An autopsy reportedly found no signs of trauma, and officials have not indicated foul play was involved.
  • Former boxer Wladimir Klitschko penned an emotional social media tribute, promising to ensure their daughter "never forgot her." Rather than marking her 37th birthday, the family now processes the loss.
