Hayden Panettiere Is Having A Baby Girl

When asked about her pregnancy glow on the red carpet, Panettiere revealed the sex of her baby, telling E! News, “I can’t wait for her to come out!”

Panettiere didn’t seem too upset by the slip, and went on to tell E! that she always planned on finding out the sex of her first child, saying, “I like to shop, girl!”

“I want to go shopping for my girl. I want to paint the room appropriately,” Panettiere added.

That said, don’t expect the young, first-time mom to go all out with the traditional pink for a girl. “We’re trying to do a room…that’s in between, that she can grow up in,” Panettiere said.

The Nashville actress also revealed that she and Klitschko have yet to settle on a name for their baby girl. “We have to make sure that it is American and Ukrainian all at the same time. That’s a little rough… we’re still working on it,” Panettiere explained.

This was her first red carpet appearance since she confirmed her pregnancy last week during her ALS ice bucket challenge, when she nominated her unborn child.
