Summary
- Panettiere describes set as unsupportive, with little empathy shown.
- Actress details harrowing superyacht experience feeling like trafficking.
- She discusses ongoing long-distance relationship with her daughter.
Hayden Panettiere has spoken out about her experiences on the set of the ABC series "Nashville," describing it as a profoundly unsupportive environment where she encountered a "shocking" lack of empathy. She felt that many on the production team did not protect her during a difficult period.
Panettiere, who starred as Juliette Barnes from 2012 to 2018, revealed that her personal struggles with postpartum depression and addiction mirrored her character's storyline. This overlap blurred the lines between her professional and personal life.
The actress also shared a terrifying experience on a superyacht in the south of France, where she felt lured into a trap. She likened the situation to human trafficking, noting the isolated circumstances of being on a boat in the middle of the ocean.
In a separate revelation, Panettiere addressed concerns about her appearance in a recent video interview. She explained she had not slept for two days prior to the shoot due to a dog's emergency surgery, leading to exhaustion during the filming and interview.
Panettiere also discussed her relationship with her ex-partner, Wladimir Klitschko, and their daughter Kaya. Despite a long-distance dynamic, she cherishes their strong bond and finds unique ways to connect with her child.
