Over the weekend, millions were shocked by the death of Hayden Panettiere.

And now, we have new information about the beloved actress’ final days.

In a surprising turn of events, Hayden reportedly rekindled her romance with Brian Hickerson several months ago, but the couple made a conscious decision to keep their relationship out of the public eye.

According to TMZ, Panettiere and Hickerson were quietly spending time together again despite years of turmoil in their relationship. The pair apparently wanted to avoid drawing attention to their reunion because of Hickerson’s troubled history with the actress.

Sources told TMZ that keeping the relationship private was largely about protecting Panettiere’s career.

The former couple had previously been romantically involved beginning in 2018.

Their relationship became highly controversial after Hickerson was accused of physically abusing Panettiere on multiple occasions.

He ultimately pleaded no contest to two felony counts involving injury to a spouse, cohabitant or girlfriend, and was sentenced to 45 days in jail in 2021.

Panettiere later spoke publicly about the abuse and said she hoped her experience would encourage others in abusive relationships to seek help.

The actress and Hickerson officially split in 2022, but they eventually reconnected and described themselves publicly as friends.

Panettiere had previously defended Hickerson’s efforts to change, saying she believed he had “done his time” and was willing to get help.

By 2026, however, reports indicated that the relationship had become romantic again.

The reunion reportedly remained largely hidden from Panettiere’s inner circle as well. Page Six reported that some of the actress’ friends were unaware that she had reconnected with Hickerson before her death.

Panettiere was reportedly inside a South Carolina apartment belonging to Hickerson when she died. Her death remains under investigation, and authorities have not publicly established a cause.

The actress was best known for her roles on Heroes, Nashville, and the Scream franchise. She is survived by her daughter, Kaya.

Her final months were marked by renewed professional ambitions. Just four months before her death, Panettiere published a memoit and spoke about plans to launch a production company.

Now, the revelation that she and Hickerson had quietly rekindled their relationship adds another complicated chapter to the tragic final months of Panettiere’s life.

Ali Simms, daughter of Teen Mom star Leah Messer, is getting a service dog!

But she didn’t get here alone.

Earlier this year, Ali launched a fundraiser to help her get the $20,000 for a service dog before college.

She had a lot of donors. But, oddly enough, Leah does not appear to be among them.

‘I’m beyond grateful’

About half a year ago, 16-year-old Ali Simms began raising money to get a service dog from the company, 4 Paws for Ability.

In 2014, Ali was diagnosed with a rare form of Muscular Dystrophy. She has used a wheelchair as a mobility aid.

As she explained in January, she hopes that a service dog will e a help when she begins college.

(Yes, in case you weren’t feeling old enough already, the children of Teen Mom stars are old enough to apply for colleges.)

The hitch was that Ali would need to raise $20,000. Now, Ali has told her Instagram followers that she has met her goal.

“This means the whole wide world to me, truly I’m at a loss of words,” Ali expressed.

“I’m beyond grateful and am in total shock,” she continued. “I want to say my biggest thank you to you all.”

Ali acknowledged: “Of course I knew there would be some controversy when sharing my journey about my Service Dog.”

She continued: “But there was also a lot of kindness, encouragement, and help without all of you this wouldn’t be possible.”

Ali assured: “This is something I’ve worked very hard on making work out. Even when it was most difficult I never gave up on my one goal.”

When a commenter tried to shade Leah, Ali was quick to defend her mom

“There were many who helped me get here,” Ali wrote. “My mom was 1000% [a part] of the reason i got this dog.”

She explained: “The donation was from an extremely kind human whom didn’t want their name posted.”

Given that Ali is referring to a $10,000 donation, that is significant.

“This took a lot from EVERYONE,” Ali wrote. “Me, BOTH my parents, and my family. We worked hard and all together to put my fundraising together. We did many local fundraisers it was just more difficult to do public ones.”

Ali affirmed: “My entire community helped as well by supporting all my fundraisers. During this process we were al working TOGETHER it took ALL of us. and i’m beyond grateful for all the help and support I’ve gotten through this whole journey.”

It’s a shame that Ali needed to fundraise for a service dog at all. But it’s amazing that she accomplished it!

We should also note that, at least publicly, she’s been very positive about the fundraising as a learning opportunity.

And, to hear her tell it, Leah Messer is still helping … even if we don’t know how or by how much.

Heading off to college in a couple of years will be daunting. But by then, Ali will have an experienced service dog with her.

We’re proud of her and wish her well!
