The possible cause of the sudden death of American actress and former fiancée of Wladimir Klitschko, Hayden Panettiere, has been revealed. The autopsy found no injuries on the 36-year-old «Heroes» star that could have led to her death. At the same time, the circumstances surrounding the tragedy have drawn attention to the possibility of an overdose.

According to the New York Post, emergency dispatchers received a call about a woman suffering cardiac arrest. Two ambulances were sent to the scene, while paramedics attempted to resuscitate the actress.

Another detail that attracted attention, according to media reports, was the medication Narcan, which was found in Panettiere’s apartment. It is used as an emergency treatment for opioid overdoses. The medication was found on a mattress. However, it remains unknown whether it was administered to the actress shortly before her death.

Meanwhile, Wladimir Klitschko reacted to the heartbreaking news and shared a post in which he spoke about the death of his former partner and the mother of his child.

American actress Hayden Panettiere has spoken publicly about her sexual orientation for the first time. The 36-year-old Hollywood star has come out as bisexual.

The candid revelation was made during an interview with Us Weekly, released ahead of the presentation of the actress’s upcoming memoir. According to Panettiere, she kept this part of her identity private for many years due to fear of judgment, constant media attention, and the pressure of Hollywood.

“Now that I’ve decided to share this with the world, I can finally say it with confidence: yes, I’m bisexual. I said it! This is the first time I’ve been able to say it out loud,” the actress admitted.

Hayden revealed that she had felt a strong attraction to women from an early age, though for a long time she struggled to acknowledge it even to herself. According to the star, during her youth she was expected to fit the image of the “perfect girl” rather than be true to who she really was.

The actress also explained why she delayed speaking publicly about her sexuality. During the wave of coming-outs in Hollywood, Panettiere feared that her confession would be perceived as an attempt to “follow a trend.”

“It felt to me like coming out — especially for women — had become something of a trend at the time. I didn’t want my honesty to be viewed that way,” she shared.

Panettiere also confirmed for the first time that she had been in relationships with women for many years. According to her, those experiences were complicated by constant paparazzi attention and fears of losing her privacy.

It is worth noting that Hayden Panettiere was in a relationship with Ukrainian boxer Wladimir Klitschko for nearly a decade. The couple were engaged and share an 11-year-old daughter, Kaya Evdokia, who currently lives with her father.
