Hayden Panettiere’s estranged mother, Lesly Vogel, slammed the actress’s on-and-off boyfriend in her first comments addressing her untimely demise at age 36.
In an interview on August 18, shortly after authorities confirmed that Brian Hickerson was by the Ice Princess star’s side when she breathed her last, Vogel described him as someone the family disapproved of.
Her remarks aligned with the concerns of several Panettiere fans, who have resurfaced his violent history with her and questioned whether he could have played a role in her passing.
