Wladimir Klitschko Seeks Guardianship of Daughter Amid Hayden Panettiere's Estate Drama

Hayden Panettiere's ex Wladimir Klitschko has filed for temporary guardianship of their daughter, Kaya, following the actress’ death.

According to court documents obtained by Us, Klitschko, 50, submitted paperwork on September 24 to be the temporary guardian over Kaya’s estate. Kaya, 11, is the sole inheritor of her late mother’s estate following Panettiere's death in August.

Since Kaya is a minor, the court can “appoint a guardian of Kaya's estate who would then succeed to Kaya's priority” while Panettiere's estate is in probate. Klitschko asked the court to be named the guardian so he can “have standing to file” and “nominate a proposed administrator” on his daughter’s behalf in order to “protect” her rights to Panettiere's estates.
