Neutrogena Acknowledges Failure to Support Hayden Panettiere Amid Renewed Boycott Calls
Neutrogena issued a public apology on Thursday, acknowledging that it made former brand ambassador Hayden Panettiere feel unsupported during her struggle with postpartum depression. The statement comes after Panettiere’s death at age 36 reignited fan backlash and boycott calls over the brand’s decision not to renew her contract in 2015. The company pledged a significant investment in maternal mental health support, though experts question whether the apology will prevent long-term reputational damage.
