As we’ve reported, earlier than the Nashville star severely sought assist for her addictions, she made the heartbreaking choice to provide full custody of her solely baby to her ex. However it seems, it wasn’t her preliminary plan. The 33-year-old admitted:
“[Kaya] was virtually 3 and it wasn’t absolutely my choice. In reality, I didn’t even realize it was occurring till she was already over there [in Ukraine].”
At this level, she and the skilled boxer have been used to buying and selling time with Kaya, and so the Heroes alum didn’t assume a lot of sending her to Ukraine in 2018 (Wladimir’s house nation) for what she thought was a go to, she defined:
“I believed she was going over to go to him like she all the time did. [Kaya] would shuttle from me in Nashville and Ukraine, after which as soon as she was over there, it was instantly, ‘I would like full custody of her,’ which was a shock to me.”
Adrienne then chimed in for clarification, asking:
“I believed this was an settlement that you just got here to that you just felt it was greatest that your daughter be together with her dad.”
We’ve positively heard Hayden say one thing comparable up to now, so we get the confusion! The actress defined that her plan was additionally to go work on herself, however she anticipated to have the identical quantity of contact together with her daughter as soon as she was more healthy. As an alternative, one thing very completely different occurred. She continued:
“I used to be gonna go work on myself and I used to be gonna get higher, and once I acquired higher that issues might change and she or he might come to me and I might have my time together with her. However that didn’t occur.”
She added:
“At first it was not [an agreement] as a result of it wasn’t a dialogue. If he had come to me and mentioned, ‘I feel due to the place you’re at proper now and the struggles that you just’re having, it might be good for her to be over right here with me for some time.’ If I had had sufficient of a dialog, [I] would’ve mentioned, ‘OK, that is smart, I get it, I’ll come there to go to and stuff like that.’ Due to the best way that it was finished, it was very upsetting.”
Whoa… Whereas she in the end did signal the custody papers, she says she didn’t really feel like she had a lot of a selection given Wladimir’s energy within the state of affairs:
“It was very upsetting signing these papers to provide him full custody. It was like probably the most heartbreaking factor I’ve ever, ever needed to do in my life. In a rustic the place her uncle [Vitali Klitschko] is the mayor [of Kyiv] and they’re icons over there, it’s a rustic the place it’s very male-dominated. There wasn’t a heck of so much I might do.”

Elsewhere within the Fb Watch chat, the Scream 4 lead revealed she as soon as obtained a name from her ex sharing one thing Kaya had been saying, she recalled:
“[Kaya was] asking different girls if she will name them Mommy.”
Oof.
The singer mentioned her “breath hitched” and “coronary heart stopped” when the 46-year-old shared the element together with her. Worst of all, he didn’t appear to know the severity of the request.
“He was laughing.”
Ugh. We’re certain he wouldn’t have discovered it humorous if Kaya was asking about her father. Merely put, Hayden insisted he didn’t perceive how the custody settlement was negatively impacting their daughter:
“He didn’t get it as … a trauma response. That’s a cry for assist. I mentioned instantly, ‘Can I discuss to my daughter?’”
Extra regarding for the momma, when she did get on the cellphone with the little lady and questioned her about why she was asking to name different girls her mom, the kid “went into ‘goo goo gaga’ converse … speaking gibberish,” she added:
“I by no means earlier than, ever, heard her do this. It was a trauma that she was experiencing, me not being round.”
Aw, man. So powerful — and all this was occurring whereas Hayden was attempting to work on herself too; it couldn’t have been simple. Whereas Kaya has by no means returned to California, Hayden has traveled to Ukraine to go to together with her they usually preserve an in depth bond, although the actress hopes sooner or later Wladimir shall be open to reconsidering the custody settlement. We’re glad they’re nonetheless related regardless of these unlucky circumstances. You’ll be able to hear extra from the susceptible dialog (under).
