James Blunt has responded to online speculation attempting to identify him as the unnamed British singer-songwriter described by Hayden Panettiere in a distressing yacht encounter in her memoir.
The 52-year-old You’re Beautiful singer shared former showbiz journalist Dean Piper’s Substack article on X – which argued he had nothing to do with the incident – after photographs of James and Hayden together in Cannes in 2009 were circulated online following the actress’s death at 36 on August 16.
