Summary
Panettiere's death on Sunday at 36 has revived her claim that Neutrogena tried to drop her after she disclosed postpartum depression in a 2015 TV interview.
On Jay Shetty's podcast in May, she said the brand moved against her after the interview, but her representatives argued firing her over the diagnosis was illegal and kept her under contract temporarily.
Panettiere said she still expected the relationship to end, recalling that after 10 years with Neutrogena she was not invited back the following year and heard nothing from the company.
Her comments gained new traction online as fans criticized Neutrogena, while the episode also renewed attention to postpartum depression, which the CDC says affects 1 in 8 recent mothers.
