Hayden said that there was a time she saw a false headline that said, “Why Hayden chose to give up her daughter,” and according to her those assumptions and lies flying around about how things were between her and her daughter – with people saying she gave up on her daughter and all the rumors made her life very “tough.” She chose not to address it then because she doesn’t want to piss anyone off “especially the person who has control of the child.”
Hayden Panettiere then went on to explain that there was no discussion whatsoever between her and her ex-fiance Wladimir Klitschko about Hayden sending her daughter Kaya over to Wladimir to be with her father for the period of time Hayden would be gone to receive treatment for her postpartum depression and alcohol and drug addiction. According to Hayden, if there had been any form of discussion like that with her ex, she would understand and agree to it.
“If he’d come to me and said, ‘I think because of where you’re at right now and your struggles that you’re having it would be good for her to be over here with me for a while,’ to which if I had probably had enough of a conversation, I would’ve said, ‘Okay. that makes sense,’ I get it. I’ll come there to visit and stuff like that.” Hayden also said that signing the papers of full custodian of Kaya over to her father wasn’t an easy thing for her at all in fact, in her exact words “I mean, it was the worst signing those papers, the most heartbreaking thing I’ve ever, ever had to do in my life.”
