14 DAY TRIAL // Hayden Panettiere might not be running down the altar anytime soon but she could be doing laps to the maternity ward in about nine months' time. The actress is said to be expecting her first child with Ukrainian fighter-turned-politician Wladimir Klitschko.
The report comes from Us Magazine, which claims to have spoken with an inside source. This insider has revealed the great news by confirming that “Hayden is totally pregnant!” The 24-year-old actress known for he roles in TV series such as “Heroes” and “Nashville” has been engaged with Klitschko, 38, for a year now.
Recently, the actress confirmed that they were postponing their wedding plans due to the political and social unrest in Ukraine, which is currently embroiled in a bitter territorial dispute with Russia over the Crimea Peninsula. Wladimir Klitschko has emerged from this crisis as an important political figure.
But it seems that, while the wedding plans are on hold, the pregnancy is going ahead swimmingly. Before their engagement, Hayden and Klitschko had been dating for two years, from 2009 until 2011, when they decided to separate. But in 2013 they decided to give it another shot, and now there are wedding bells in their future.
Since she became engaged to the huge Ukrainian, Hayden expressed her desire to start a family and claimed that she was born to be a mother. Asked about the age difference, Hayden claimed that she didn't feel it, since she experienced so much in her life that she was somehow older.
She also addressed the issue of having children, blasting theories from people who claimed that, once you have children, your life is over. She called motherhood the most “beautiful, exciting thin, and there's nothing that I feel like I can't accomplish while having children in my life.”
Of course, the issue of what the children of the couple are going to look like has popped up more than once. People who are familiar with them know that, while Wladimir Klitschko is a massive, towering beast of a man, Hayden is a petite blond, and, when they stand side by side, the discrepancy in size and girth is all the more evident.
But Hayden dismissed these rumors also on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. “He's got bowlegs and I've got knocked knees, so they're going to have straight legs,” Hayden said about her future children and added, “and they'll be normal height.”
Some of you might chuckle at Hayden's grasp of human genes work, but the actress is confident that they make a lovely pair.
