Hayden Panettiere’s Rep Condemns Those Fueling “Gossip and Speculation” Amid Death Investigation
"There is much more to this story than what is currently being discussed publicly, and those closest to Hayden are actively cooperating with the ongoing investigation to help ensure that the truth comes to light," says the rep of Panettiere, who died suddenly on Aug. 16 at age 36.
Hayden Panettiere's representatives denounced public speculation following her death at 36 this month, acknowledging "more to the story" as the investigation proceeds. The "Heroes" actress's team urged anyone with genuine information to report to law enforcement, condemning the accompanying rumors as "deeply disrespectful" to the grieving.
They emphasized that those not close to Panettiere were using her death to spread gossip, emphasizing the need for respect for her memory and those who loved her. The statement came after a neighbor, Mia Terrazzas, reported hearing disturbances and seeing Panettiere being placed on a gurney, suggesting she had suffered trauma. Panettiere had previously detailed alleged domestic abuse in her memoir "This is Me: A Reckoning."
She was found unresponsive in Greenville, S.C., on August 16, with no signs of foul play, and the DEA joined the probe. Her father, Skip Panettiere, expressed deep sadness over his daughter's passing, describing her as an "incredible light" who brought "immeasurable love and joy."
