Hayden Panettiere is clearing up the circumstances surrounding her decision to give full custody of her daughter, Kaya, to ex Wladimir Klitschko. "The idea that anyone would think that I would just give away my child and be OK with it is heartbreaking and couldn't be further from the truth," Panettiere, 36, said during a Monday, May 11, appearance on the "On Purpose With Jay Shetty" podcast. Panettiere welcomed Kaya, now 11, with Klitschko, 50, in December 2014 while engaged to the Ukrainian boxing icon.
