![Hayden Panettiere arrives at her younger brother Jansen's celebration of life event in their hometown of Palisades, New York, with her on/off boyfriend Brian Hickerson. The grieving actress wore a colorful bomber jacket and black pants as she attended the memorial at the scenic Palisades Presbyterian Church alongside her mother Lesley Vogel and father Alan ‘Skip’ Panettiere, on Wednesday morning. Jansen’s girlfriend Cat Michie, who has posted a heartfelt tribute to him on social media, was also seen at the venue. ‘Scream, 6’ star Hayden, 33, was expected to speak at the event, which was being held in remembrance of the 28-year-old former child actor, who died last month due to an enlarged heart. A friend of the former actor told officials he'd checked on Jansen at home after he'd failed to show up for a business meeting. Upon arrival, he was found sitting upright in a chair unresponsive. Jansen's dad, Skip, had spoken to his son on the phone just the night before, and thought he "sounded okay." On Wednesday, friends and family came together at the small church which is just a few miles away from Jansen's apartment in Nyack where he was found dead. 08 Mar 2023 Pictured: Brian Hickerson, Hayden Panettiere.

While cooly sitting on a stoop, Hayden had her nose buried in the book Underboss: Sammy The Bull Gravano’s Story of Life in the Mafia. The star was also smoking a cigarette as she read. But what stood out the most about her post-rehab outing was the fact that her six-carat engagement ring was totally missing from her left ring finger! Could the couple’s relationship be on the rocks?

After all, it was Hayden’s first public appearance since entering rehab for a second time, and it’s hard to believe she’d casually just forget to wear the gorgeous sparkler Wladimir proposed to her with back in 2013! For those who need a refresher, Hayden and Wladimir began dating in 2009 but split in 2011. However, the pair reconciled two years later in early 2013. By October of that same year they were engaged! And in December 2014, Hayden gave birth to the couple’s first child together — Kaya Evdokia, 1.

But clearly there was a reason the duo initially broke up back in 2011 — maybe they’re heading down a similar path now? It would truly be a shame though because Hayden did refer to the professional boxer as one of the “loves of [her] life” just this past March during a family beach trip.

And Wladimir has certainly helped the Nashville star through a lot! Let’s not forget that Hayden first sought treatment for postpartum depression in October 2015 after giving birth to Kaya. And we love that the celeb has never been ashamed to discuss her battle with postpartum depression.
“There’s a lot of misunderstanding — there’s a lot of people out there that think it’s not real, that’s it not true, that it’s something that’s made up in their minds, that ‘Oh, it’s hormones,’” she said prior to her very first treatment. “They brush it off. It’s something that’s completely uncontrollable. It’s really painful and it’s really scary and women need a lot of support.” We couldn’t agree more, Hayden!
And after all Hayden’s been through, we sincerely hope her relationship with Wladimir is NOT in trouble — it definitely seems like he’s been her rock for years now! We wish the star all the best.
