“Missing rings don’t mean the end of relationships. Blessed to be with my beautiful family,” she wrote on Twitter, adding the prayer hands emoji.
Panettiere became engaged to the professional boxer in October 2013. In December 2014, the 26-year-old actress gave birth to their daughter, beforeseeking treatment for postpartum depression in October 2015.
In May, she revealed that she was taking time to “reflect holistically” on her “health and life.”
When ET caught up with Panettiere at the Critics’ Choice Awards this year, she said she was “surprised” by the “incredible amount of support” she received after opening up about her postpartum depression.
“When I looked, people were like, ‘Oh my gosh, good for you,’ and I am so proud to be a spokesperson and a woman that people can look to and know that they’re not alone and they’re not weak if they go and they seek help,” Panettiere said after admitting she thought people were expecting her to fail.
