Actress Hayden Panettiere's estranged mother, Lesley Panettiere, has publicly disputed her daughter's recent claim of bisexuality. The 36-year-old 'Nashville' star made the revelation in her upcoming memoir, 'This Is Me:...', scheduled for release later this year.
In a statement to media outlets, Lesley Panettiere said she was 'shocked' by the claim, stating she had no knowledge of any same-sex relationships during Hayden's upbringing. 'I've never seen any evidence of this,' she added, questioning the timing of the disclosure.
Hayden Panettiere has not yet responded to her mother's comments. The actress has been open about her personal struggles in recent years, including battles with addiction and postpartum depression.
The memoir is expected to cover various aspects of her life, including her career and family relationships. Representatives for Panettiere declined to comment further on the family dispute.
