Hayden Panettiere is reacting to her mother’s scathing statement about her upcoming tell-all book, calling it “so false."
Lesley Vogel, Hayden’s estranged mother and former manager, said in a lengthy statement that she believes Hayden's “present drama is partially to sell books” and claimed she went no-contact with her daughter after “20 years of trauma,” accusing Hayden of having a "personality ‘style' which manifests as a need for control, entitlement and a lack of empathy."
Sitting down with ET, Hayden responded to that statement, saying it’s "so false.” The 36-year-old actress says she always wants to leave the door open to rebuild a relationship with her mother, but "she slammed that door pretty hard in my face.”
Hayden explores her life as childhood star, working with her mother and more in her memoir ‘This Is Me: A Reckoning,’ out May 19
