Hayden Panettiere's Ex Wladimir Klitschko Gets Legal Status to Protect Their Daughter's Inheritance

Klitschko says missing jewelry and other assets could be lost without court authority to protect his daughter’s inheritance, and he plans to cover a $30,000 tax bill.

  • 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.
