Hayden Panettiere’s Ex Wladimir Klitschko Gets Legal Status to Protect Their Daughter’s Inheritance – WTOP News
- On Thursday, a California court granted former boxer Wladimir Klitschko legal authority to protect actor Hayden Panettiere's estate for their 11-year-old daughter, Kaya, following her accidental overdose death.
- Klitschko filed an urgent petition last week after federal agents and an unnamed nonfamily member began seizing Panettiere's property, with no one positioned to recover assets for his daughter.
- The filing reveals that Panettiere and Klitschko previously hired security after unauthorized access occurred, with expectations that an unnamed person would continue to try to "misappropriate" her property.
- Judge Stephanie Santoro approved the petition during a remote hearing, granting Klitschko temporary guardian status while Panettiere's mother, Lesley Vogel, filed her consent to the appointment.
- Kaya has lived full-time in Ukraine with Klitschko since age 2, while Panettiere, the former star of "Heroes" and "Nashville," died August 16 in Greenville, South Carolina, from an accidental overdose.
