Ruby Rose unleashes Hayden Panettiere’s painful texts about her mom’s cruelty

**Ruby Rose Shares Alleged Texts With Hayden Panettiere After Actress’ Death**

Ruby Rose took to Threads on Wednesday, August 19, 2024 to post screenshots of alleged text exchanges between herself and the late actress Hayden Panettiere.

The posts surfaced after the Nashville‑born star’s death at 36, and included messages that Rose had apparently sent from a phone number labeled “Hayden.” The tweets were part of a broader conversation about Panettiere’s sudden passing.

The screenshots reveal Rose’s reflections on motherhood and the pain of estranged parents. “… Always struggle to separate from their parents.

It’s an unnatural position to be placed in,” Rose allegedly sent Panettiere.

“They did not act or behave like mothers, so we are wounded from them, but the idea of a mother is still so powerful to us.” In a reply that Rose posted as well, Panettiere is said to have written, “All of that lands.” The thread also contained text in which Panettiere expressed anguish over her mother’s cruelty: “I was sobbing over her cruelty yesterday thinking, ‘My god, I’m 36 and she can still cause this kind of pain,’” and added, “I’m her only child left and this is how she wants to handle the situation?!”

Panettiere’s death followed a period of public mourning. Skip Panettiere, Hayden’s ex‑husband, confirmed her passing , August 16, stating: “It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of our beloved Hayden.

She was an incredible light and a force of nature who brought immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her — and to the millions who watched her onscreen.” The announcement also urged privacy as the family processed the loss.

Two days earlier, Lesley Vogel, Hayden’s mother, released a statement saying she had “lost her way” and wished for her daughter to have stayed true to herself.

## Background & Context

Hayden Panettiere was a well‑known television actress who rose to fame in the early 2000s. Born into a family already connected to the industry—her father, Skip Panettiere, was a former actor and her brother Jansen had died in 2023 at age 28 after an undiagnosed heart condition—she had navigated both public and private struggles.

Vogel, who managed Hayden’s early career, expressed regret that her daughter “saw the world in ways that were difficult for her” in a statement to NBC News on August 18, 2024. The comments reflected a complex relationship that extended beyond Hollywood into personal trauma.

The alleged texts posted by Rose provide a glimpse into how the two actresses discussed these themes. Rose, an actress best known for her role as Batwoman, had been friends with Panettiere for years, describing a circle of fourteen women they shared in a later Threads post. “Our group of friends consists of 14 women.

And I haven’t even met her other wonderful friend groups,” Rose mused, noting how “Hayden was so VERY VERY LOVED.” She added that the pair had planned a future project—a comedy centered on their meeting and shared healing—though neither wanted to give it to Hollywood.

## What People Are Saying

In her posts, Rose framed the conversation around the lasting impact of Panettiere’s death. She highlighted the emotional toll of a mother who “did not act or behave like mothers,” and how that left a wound that still felt powerful.

The texts also showed Panettiere’s own grief, with her describing being “sobbing over her cruelty yesterday.” The thread was largely a private exchange, and Rose did not disclose the messages’ dates or broader context.

The public reaction to the screenshots has been muted, with most commentary focused on the statements from Skip Panettiere and Lesley Vogel. The family’s request for privacy has limited further discussion.

The only additional public note came from Vogel’s statement to NBC News, where she acknowledged that Hayden had “lost her way” and wished she had stayed true to herself.

## What Happens Next

The death of Hayden Panettiere remains the central event around which the other pieces revolve. No court filings or official investigations are indicated in the sources, and no further information about the alleged text conversations has surfaced beyond Rose’s Threads post.

It is unclear whether the planned comedy collaboration will proceed, and there are no statements from any production companies. As of now, the only updates come from family statements and Rose’s brief reflections on their friendship.

Ruby Rose’s Threads post offers a glimpse into a private conversation that highlighted themes of parental estrangement and grief. The posts coincide with the public mourning of Hayden Panettiere, whose death has prompted statements from both her mother and her ex‑husband.

The details remain limited to what Rose and the family have shared publicly, leaving the broader context and future plans largely unknown.
