Hayden Panettiere's daughter Kaya, 11, appears in court with dad Wladimir Klitschko over late star's estate
Key Points:
- Hayden Panettiere’s 11-year-old daughter, Kaya, appeared remotely in court alongside her father, Wladimir Klitschko, during a guardianship hearing over Panettiere’s estate.
- Klitschko was granted temporary guardianship of Panettiere’s estate and requested authority to involve law enforcement in investigating the alleged misappropriation of her belongings by a non-family member.
- Klitschko filed court documents claiming some of Panettiere’s possessions, including jewelry, were pawned without proper authorization, and he fears they may be sold without police involvement.
- Kaya, who lives with Klitschko in Ukraine, is entitled to her late mother’s assets, and Klitschko emphasized the urgency of managing these assets on her behalf.
- Hayden Panettiere, who died in August 2023 from an accidental overdose, had previously given Klitschko full custody of Kaya in 2018, a decision she described as deeply upsetting.
