Hayden Panettiere’s Mom Says 'Toxic Individual' Led to Her Death
Lesley Vogel said her daughter became involved with the “wrong person” and her family tried to remove him from her life.
Hayden Panettiere's mother, Lesley Vogel, has blamed a "toxic" individual for her daughter's death, as reported by Entertainment Tonight. Vogel explained that their estrangement was not due to a lack of care or love, but was caused by someone else's involvement in her daughter's life. According to Vogel, the toxic person was with Panettiere at her death, and she criticized the on-and-off boyfriend, Brian Hickerson, in an interview with NBC News.
Panettiere's attorney, Sloan Ellis, stated that the investigation into her death is ongoing and that there were no signs of foul play. Neutrogena, the brand Panettiere served as an ambassador for, responded to the tragedy by expressing their sadness and acknowledging that the company made mistakes in its handling of the situation.
The brand emphasized that they are proud of their partnership with Panettiere, but they will not tolerate any behavior that goes against their values. Fans have called for a boycott of Neutrogena following Panettiere's passing, citing the company's response as part of the reason for their discontent.
