Hayden Panettiere’s Loved Ones Are ‘More Worried Than Ever’ About Her Relationship: Source

Hayden Panettiere‘s romance with Brian Hickerson is a source of concern amongst her friends and family, sources tell PEOPLE.

The Nashville star, 29, was first linked to the aspiring actor last August, shortly after reports circulated that Panettiere and ex-fiancé Wladimir Klitschko (the father of her 4-year-old daughter Kaya) had split.

Over the course of their relationship, the couple has made headlines. Last November, they were reportedly involved in a drunken altercation with Hickerson’s dad; earlier this month, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to PEOPLE that Hickerson had been arrested on a domestic violence charge.

According to TMZ, Hickerson got into an alleged physical altercation with Panettiere. He was released later that day after posting a $50,000 bond, the outlet reported. (Neither responded to PEOPLE’s request for comment on the arrest. PEOPLE is out to the district attorney about a possible plea.)

“Hayden knows Brian has a bad temper and can be controlling, but there is an extreme attraction to it,” a show business source tells PEOPLE. “And despite warnings from family and friends, the relationship seems solid.”

“Brian’s reputation as a party boy is no secret in Hollywood,” the source continues. “Those close to Hayden are more worried than ever about this and his temper. But Hayden is taken with him. She thinks he is what she needs in her life now.”- Source
