Nashville star Hayden Panettiere has described motherhood as being "the most out-of-body experience" following the birth of her first child Kaya in December.

Panettiere, whose fiancé is boxer Wladimir Klitschko, said on Good Morning America: "It's out of body... As long as your kids are happy and healthy and all good - it's fabulous."

She continued: "You just re-prioritise... You hear that they're healthy, and you just don't care about yourself any more. It's the most out-of-body experience, where you go, 'I will completely lay myself on the line for my child without even a hesitation'."

World heavyweight champion Klitschko recently told Us Magazine of becoming a father: "It has changed my life completely. I'm so happy to have Hayden in my life. She's the best mom I could even imagine. She's a true, amazing mom..."

He continued: "I think [having] children is something that connects you until the end of your days no matter what. And I think that, Kaya, our daughter, has connected us forever. And that's the most amazing thing. Everything else is coming, it's something that needs to be planned... But the connection with the child is better than any marriage!"
