Los Angeles, Feb 26 : Golden Globe nominated “Nashville” actress Hayden Panettiere has clarified her daughter, who is with her ex in Kyiv, is safe. Kaya is “safe” amid the Ukraine invasion, Hayden Panettiere confirmed, saying that the 7-year-old is not in harm’s way amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, ENews reported. The “Heroes” actress’ daughter lives with her father, Hayden’s ex Wladimir Klitschko, in Ukraine. The clarification came after a fan shared concern over Kaya’s safety in a comment on Hayden’s Instagram on Friday. The actress replied, “She’s safe and not in Ukraine.” In an Instagram post on Thursday, Klitschko stated that he was currently located in Ukraine’s capital Kyiv, where he said, “European way of life is under threat. “The freedom of peoples to make their own decisions is under threat and so is democracy.” In addition to showing support for Klitschko’s comments by posting them onto her Instagram Story on Friday, the 32-year-old actress also shared her own thoughts about the Ukraine crisis on Instagram, calling Russian President Vladimir Putin’s actions “an absolute disgrace”. “This horrific moment in history sends a terrifying message: the message that in this day and age, in year 2022, it’s okay to violate the rights of free people and allow autocrats like Putin to take whatever they please,” she said. “I’m praying for my family and friends there and everyone who’s fighting.” The actress said, “I wish you had more support and I wish I was there fighting with you! For now, I ask for those of us who can’t be there to stand shoulder to shoulder in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and show your support for #democracy.” ING ACL0622
