Hayden Panettiere

Hayden Panettiere and Brian Hickerson have been dating on and off since August 2018 and most recently split in 2020 — get the details.

The following May, Hickerson was arrested for domestic violence after police discovered “redness and marks” on Panettiere’s body following an alleged argument between the twosome. In November 2018, cops from South Carolina’s Greenville City Police Department responded to a call about “a domestic assault in progress” after an alleged altercation between Hickerson and his father. “There was nobody complaining of pain, and no one came forward saying they were a victim of an assault.” “Upon deputies’ arrival there was no evidence of a crime,” a spokesperson noted in a statement. Once outside, Hickerson was allegedly “attacked” by the group, per the rep, while the Nashville alum attempted to break up the fight. “That same individual along with the group he was with began badgering and shoving Brian at which point security pushed everyone outside.”

Hayden Panettiere and her on-and-off boyfriend Brian Dickerson got into an altercation with another group late Thursday at the Sunset Marquis.

“Brian was attacked by the group as was Hayden who in her best effort tried to [defuse] the situation. That same individual along with the group he was with began badgering and shoving Brian at which point security pushed everyone outside,” her spokesperson said in an email to The Times. The incident occurred around midnight and law enforcement was called in at 12:18 a.m. Friday, authorities said. Hayden was refused the opportunity to provide a statement to the police as she was escorted back inside. “I am prepared to do my part to make sure this man never hurts anyone again. Panettiere, 32, is heard yelling “Brian, jail!” in the footage as she tries to stop Hickerson from getting physical, apparently referring to the fact that he’s on probation following multiple domestic violence charges dating back to 2018.
