She wasn\u2019t a parent who backed into the job because her cute camera ready kid kept landing auditions. I was not her only client as she was already a well-established talent manager, for more than a decade before I ever got <em>21 Jump Street<\/em>, the role that put me on the map. And granted I was in my 20s and a college graduate when my break came. Not a child.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I still relate in many ways.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Holly<\/strong>&#8216;s mom became a talent manager after fleeing a bad marriage in the 1970s, eventually representing stars like <strong>LeVar Burton, Martin Sheen, Pierce Brosnan, Wesley Snipes<\/strong>, and more. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When a parent starts managing you as a baby and that&#8217;s the only relationship you&#8217;ve ever known with them, the whole thing can curdle into something purely transactional and every conversation shadowed by business, every piece of advice hard to separate from a client note. I believe that&#8217;s what happened with Hayden.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My mother had a strong identity and a career <em>before<\/em> she started managing me, which I believe gave us more to stand on when it came time to pull the two apart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And I did need to pull them apart. There came a point where I told her, plainly: I just want you to be my mom now. Not my manager. Not my advisor. My mom. It did not go over well. She was in her seventies, still sharp, still convinced she had more to give professionally, and not remotely ready to let go. It caused a real rift\u2026 one of the hardest conversations of my life, and the fallout lasted a long time. Too long.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But we healed it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Holly<\/strong> explained why she understands the <strong>Panettiere<\/strong> family&#8217;s story. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I understand, maybe better than most, how genuinely hard it is to separate a parent from a manager especially when they\u2019ve been the same person your <em>whole<\/em> life like in Hayden\u2019s case.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I understand the complexity of finances, loyalty, resentment and love that gets tangled up in an arrangement like that. So I don\u2019t say any of this without some empathy for how complicated Lesley Vogel\u2019s relationship with her daughter must have become.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But understanding the difficulty of that relationship is different from excusing how she chose to speak about it in the days right after losing her child. This was her second child she\u2019s lost in 3 years! And in that moment, she chose for the language of an industry professional instead of a mother. I was hoping, we all were-honestly, for a softer part of her to come through- grief, remorse, tenderness, anything. I think we were hoping she would say something to help <em>us<\/em> grieve her daughter. Instead it felt like she used the platform to shift blame elsewhere, and Hayden, an adult who publicly bore responsibility for her own struggles, got talked about like a project that hadn\u2019t panned out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s what triggered me. Not just sympathy for Hayden, but seeing the specific ache of watching a mom\/manager relationship fail to become, even at the end, just a mom.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can read the full article on <a href=\"https:\/\/hollyrpeete.substack.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Substack<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/2026\/08\/21\/holly-robinson-peete-reveals-her-own-momager-story-how-it-relates-to-hayden-panettieres-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Holly Robinson Peete Reveals Her Own Momager Story &amp; How It Relates to Hayden Panettiere&#8217;s Experience<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Just Jared &#8211; Celebrity News and Gossip | Entertainment<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.justjared.com\/2026\/08\/21\/holly-robinson-peete-reveals-her-own-momager-story-how-it-relates-to-hayden-panettieres-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getty Holly Robinson Peete is following up her previous comments on Hayden Panettiere to share more about her own experience with having a mom as her manager.
