Hayden Panettiere opened up for the first time about her addiction struggles and relinquishing custody of her daughter Kaya in 2018.
On this week’s Red Table Talk, Panettiere, 33, explained the custody situation with her ex-husband, Ukrainian boxer Wladimir Klitschko.
They welcomed daughter Kaya in 2014 and split in 2018. She said that she is not a person who would just easily give away her child.
“It wasn’t fully my decision,” Panettiere said. “In fact, I didn’t even know it was happening until she was already over [in Ukraine].”
The actress was struggling with alcohol and opioid addiction at that time which led to the loss of custody of Kaya.
“I was leaning on the bottle during that time off and it was bad,” she admits. “When I finally called for help I was in a fetal position in bed, couldn’t get out, in tears all the time. Even though I knew I had to stop,...

Jada Pinkett Smith spoke about “alpha male spirit” during Hayden Panettiere’s appearance on her Facebook Watch series, Red Table Talk, on Wednesday (28 September).

“I respect him for being such a driven human being... athletes, they’re very diligent, that mentality is just pretty incredible,” Panettiere said of her ex-husband, from whom she separated in 2018.
“But, he’s also a man who doesn’t have any sisters so he really thought I was doing it to myself,” she continued.

In late February, when Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine, Hollywood was quick to respond in helping the embattled country. Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher launched a GoFundMe for humanitarian aid efforts that raised 30 million in two weeks, including 3 million of their own contribution; Hayden Panettiere established Hoplon International to raise critical funding for medical supplies and protective gear for those on the front lines; Bethenny Frankel’s BStrong raised nearly 20 million by the end of March; and Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds matched up to 1 million in donations to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

Producers Christopher Scheimann and Olcun Tan have partnered with top sports director Bobby Razak on “The Power of 1,” a feature biopic of Ufc fighter Evan Tanner. Co-written by Scheimann and Razak, the movie is slated to go into pre-production toward the end of this year, with principal photography planned for early next year.
Tanner, a pioneer in the sport and winner of the Ufc’s middleweight title in 2005, died under tragic circumstances in 2008 while on a solo expedition deep into the California desert. He taught himself to fight at a championship level via instructional videotapes, and went on to revolutionize the sport with his innovative approach. He was reluctant to identify himself as merely a fighter. “I always thought of myself as the poet, the writer or the philosopher,” he said.

"Cause he sucks, that's why ... and he's trying to get some fame off of my back." We're reaching out to Wilder to get his side of the story.
