NASHVILLE’s Hayden Panettiere Reveals Juliette’s Postpartum Depression Is Something She Can Personally Relate To!

Here’s where your fictional life and your real life collide, but something good can come out of it … awareness!

Nashville star Hayden Panettiere, who has been delivering power performances  as country and western/pop star Juliette Barnes, who is suffering from Postpartum depression and acting out in the most dreadful of ways, appeared on the syndicated morning talker Live with Kelly and Michael on Monday.

During her segment, the actress revealed that she can relate quite well to Juliette’s circumstance, as a newborn mother herself.  Hayden gave birth to her first child, Kaya Evdokia in December of last year.  She shared what her experience has been with postpartum depression, and how she hopes people can be more understanding for women suffering from this.

Panettiere stated:  “I can very much relate. It’s something a lot of women experience. When (you’re told) about postpartum depression you think it’s ‘I feel negative feelings towards my child, I want to injure or hurt my child’ — I’ve never, ever had those feelings.  Some women do. But you don’t realize how broad of a spectrum you can really experience that on. It’s something that needs to be talked about. Women need to know that they’re not alone, and that it does heal.”

The Nashville star went on to discuss the misunderstanding there is for women going through this type of baby blues: “There’s a lot of misunderstanding.  There’s a lot of people out there that think that it’s not real, that it’s not true, that it’s something that’s made up in their minds, that ‘Oh, it’s hormones.’  They brush it off.  It’s something that’s completely uncontrollable. It’s really painful and it’s really scary and women need a lot of support.”  She ended her frank discussion on the subject by reminding the TV audience of the power of women saying:  “Women are amazing. We do something that no man can do on this planet. I mean, we grow a human being in our body!”

And tonight, as season four of Nashville (ABC 10PMET/9CT) continues life means art when: Juliette breaks down during an appearance on Live with Kelly and Michael, prompting Avery’s concern. But when she continues her pattern of irrational and volatile behavior, she leaves Avery with a struggle of his own. Meanwhile, Rayna is determined to show the world that Highway 65 is not just a vanity project and devises a plan to sign Markus Keen (Riley Smith, “True Blood”), one of the biggest rock artists around.

she will do anything to get publicity! first it was hangin with paris hilton, then she started worrying about the plight of the dolphins and now this.

I like Nashville. The show is doing a great service to women going through this.It is real, and someone playing the part saying so can’t hurt. .of course we all want to see the happy family. so we want to see her with her daughter and husband. On Nashville that is.

Ex-Nashville and GL’s Hayden Panettiere’s Boyfriend Arrested After Allegedly Punching Her

More upsetting news involving former ABC and CMT’s Nashville star (Ex-Juliette Barnes), Hayden Panettiere.  According to various reports, the actress was punched by her boyfriend Brian Hickerson with a closed fist in an incident that occurred in Wyoming, over the Valentine’s Day weekend.  He was arrested around 2:30am on February 14th.

According to TMZ: the police report said that Hayden revealed that she and Brian were in their bedroom when he started throwing her around and punched her.  The Teton County Sheriff’s Office was notified of a disturbance at a private residence. That caller said an intoxicated male was locked out of the home because he punched his girlfriend in the face.

Pantierre’s face was red and swollen, and she also had a scrape and swelling on her left hand; which she believed came from Hickerson’s watch during the altercation.  Deputies then decided to book Hickerson for domestic battery. He was also hit with a second charge of interfering with a police officer for allegedly refusing to identify himself.

Things looked like they had taken a turn for the better before the incident, noting that the couple moved past another altercation previously from 2019.  That case was dismissed, although he has left red marks on Pantierre’s body, because they could not find a “material witness”.

Hayden and Brian have been dating since 2018.  Daytime fans remember first seeing Hayden as a young Lizzie Spaulding on Guiding Light.  She played Juliette on Nashville from 2012-2018.

So what do you think about the latest incident involving Hayden? Comment below.
