Hayden Panettiere’s Engagement Ring From Ex Wladimir Klitschko Is Missing Following Her Death

Friends and family suspect someone took the sentimental diamond ring while pawning Panettiere’s belongings, according to Us Weekly.

  • The engagement ring Hayden Panettiere received from former fiancé Wladimir Klitschko has gone missing, with those closest to the Heroes actress suspecting it was taken during her final days.
  • Panettiere worked with Montblanc to custom design the emerald-cut diamond ring, which contemporary reports estimated to be worth as much as $500,000, and she retained the piece after their 2018 relationship ended.
  • Police reported that Brian Hickerson and his brother Zach Hickerson were present at the Greenville, South Carolina, apartment when Hayden was pronounced dead in August, with investigators discovering "no signs of trauma."
  • Hayden's father, Skip Panettiere, confirmed to police that she had recently been released from a Malibu drug rehab facility after spending two or three weeks in treatment before her August 16 death.
  • Authorities reported that Skip described Hayden's relationship with ex-boyfriend Brian as "nothing but troubled," noting a 2020 domestic violence altercation in Wyoming led to their separation though they remained in contact.
