Story summary

Hayden Panettiere's 11-year-old daughter Kaya appeared in court via video call on Thursday alongside her father Wladimir Klitschko, where Klitschko was granted temporary guardianship over his late fiancée’s estate. Panettiere, a former actress who gained fame for roles in *Heroes* and *Nashville*, died on August 16 at the age of 36 from an accidental overdose involving fentanyl and other drugs in Greenville, South Carolina. Klitschko fears that pieces of Panettiere’s property were being taken by federal law enforcement agents investigating her death and by an unnamed nonfamily member looking to sell them without oversight. The court granted Klitschko temporary guardianship to protect Kaya's inheritance as the sole beneficiary of an estimated $6 million estate, with the former boxer requesting authority to investigate any misappropriation of Panettiere’s possessions.
