In 2009 she met the world heavyweight boxing champion, Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko after both of them were featured in their mutual acquaintance's book, "Room 23." The two began dating the same year but then split in 2011, but decided to remain friends. However, they began dating again in 2013 and announced their engagement the same year. In 2014, the couple had a daughter together.
Following the birth of her daughter, Panettiere experienced postpartum depression, for which she sought treatment.
Klitschko and Panettiere remained engaged but ultimately did not marry. The couple officially called it quits in 2018, though they remain on good terms. Soon after, Panettiere started dating actor Brian Hickerson. The relationship was troubled, however, as Hickerson was arrested in 2019 on domestic violence charges, though he was later released on bail. However, he was arrested again in 2020 and charged with domestic battery and interference with a police officer. The police responded to a complaint in Jackson, Wyoming after there was an alleged disturbance between Hickerson and Panettiere, with Panettiere suffering from several bodily injuries. The two broke up following Hickerson's arrest, and Panettiere has since become vocal about the abuse she endured in the relationship. She has also taken a hiatus from the spotlight to focus on her personal life.
