Hayden Panettiere and former heavyweight boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko had an unstable relationship that lasted several years before they decided to part ways. During their romance, the couple welcomed their daughter Kaya in 2014 and continued to co-parent after their separation.
Over the years, Panettiere has occasionally shared details about her relationship and family dynamics, including an interview with People in 2022, where she spoke about Klitschko’s life and their daughter in Ukraine amid the Russian invasion. «We work hand in hand», - she noted at the time. «He's busy fighting, so every time I hear his voice or get a message, it’s a relief».
Although their romantic relationship has ended, the couple continues to support each other in raising Kaya. Learn more about Hayden and Wladimir’s past and present relationship below.
Hayden and Wladimir, who is a former professional boxer from Ukraine, first met in 2008. The «Scream 4» star revealed that she and her future boyfriend attended a party for a mutual friend in an interview with Ellen DeGeneres in 2013. She admitted that she was the first to speak to him. «You're huge», - she joked. «You're tiny», - he replied.
Although Hayden was dating actor Milo Ventimiglia when she first met Wladimir, they broke up in 2009. She and Wladimir then reconnected and began their romance. It’s not exactly clear when their relationship officially started, but they were seen together that same year, and the rest is history.
The couple broke up after nearly two years of dating in May 2011. «Although we have decided that separation is the best decision for both of us, we have a tremendous amount of love and respect for each other, and we remain very close friends», - Hayden said at the time. Wladimir also commented on the split.
«We had a great time together, but managing a relationship between two continents is not easy», - he said in his statement. «I have a lot of respect for Hayden as a person and as a friend, and I believe we will keep our friendship even after the breakup».
Hayden and Wladimir were spotted together again in February 2013. They had lunch at a taco restaurant in Hollywood, Florida, and then reportedly showed affection on the beach. This meeting occurred two months after Hayden broke up with her boyfriend, New York Jets receiver Scotty McKnight.
Although rumors of an engagement circulated throughout the year after Hayden was seen with a ring resembling an engagement ring, she did not announce her plans to marry Wladimir until an interview on Live! With Kelly and Michael in October 2013. «You have a very large diamond ring on your ring finger… I’m not sure if you want to announce anything. Does it mean something, is it a promise of something?» Kelly asked. «Maybe… I think it speaks for itself», - Hayden replied, and then said «Yes» when Kelly directly asked, «Are you engaged?»
Later, Hayden spoke about Wladimir’s romantic proposal in an interview with Brides in 2014. It was «very sweet, simple, and sincere», - she told the publication. «It wasn’t something grand with fireworks or mariachis. I think it’s wonderful when people do that, but I like that mine was simple and from the heart».
«I have always dreamed of my wedding day!» she continued. «Not something excessive or crazy, but yes, I’ve always thought about it. It’s one of those things you just have to hold onto and hope everything goes smoothly. You plan and plan, and in the end, you just have to relax and see what happens».
At the time, Hayden was filming the show «Nashville» in the city, and when it became successful, she thought it would be perfect to buy a house there with her future husband. She spoke about the normalcy of their life after…
