One day later, Panettiere’s representatives condemned the speculation surrounding Panettiere’s final hours and accused outsiders of turning her death into an opportunity to “fuel gossip.”
“Many people who were not close to Hayden are using her death as an opportunity to fuel gossip and speculation about a situation they knew very little about,” Panettiere’s rep said in a statement shared with US Weekly. “It is deeply disrespectful to her memory and to those who knew and loved her and are actively grieving this tremendous loss.”

“If you have legitimate information that could be helpful, please contact law enforcement rather than turning to social media to speculate publicly about something you do not fully understand.”
Panettiere’s team also hinted that key details surrounding Panettiere’s death had yet to emerge.
“There is much more to this story than what is currently being discussed publicly, and those closest to Hayden are actively cooperating with the ongoing investigation to help ensure that the truth comes to light and that justice is properly served,” the statement concluded.
