Jansen Panettiere died on February 19, 2023, at the age of 28. 🕊️ An enlarged heart and complications with the aortic valve caused a natural failure that no one saw coming.
Days later, her sister Hayden’s body began to change without her understanding why. “I simply blew up like a balloon”, she told People magazine. By September 2024, she had already gained 18 kilos, without changing her diet or routine. 😔
Doctors point to cortisol and the extreme stress of grief as possible causes. Hayden put it differently: she believes her body tried to protect her from the world while she carried, in her words, half of her soul lost forever. 💔
