Hayden Panettiere Talks Loss of Brother, Weight Gain, Heartbreak
Actress Hayden Panettiere has candidly shared her experiences with weight gain and heartbreak in a recent interview.
Panettiere revealed that she struggled with her weight after the tragic death of her younger brother, Jansen.
The Amber Alert star said, “He was my only sibling, and it was my job to protect him. When I lost him, I felt like I lost half of my soul…I will always be heartbroken about [him], I will never be able to get over it.”
The weight gain only made the months following worse — Panettiere says she was barely able to leave the house.
“I had to see horrific paparazzi pictures of myself coming out of Jansen’s funeral, which happened in a very private place, and it was shocking,” she said.
Hayden explained, “I didn’t recognize myself. My agoraphobia came out, which is something I’ve struggled with in the past.”
The stress and grief she experienced following his loss led to significant weight gain.
In addition to her weight gain, Panettiere also discussed the emotional toll of her brother’s death.
More specifically, Hayden mentioned agoraphobia.
She admitted to feeling isolated and overwhelmed, and that the heartbreak had a profound impact on her mental health.
