Hayden Panettiere was spotted in Cannes earlier today, enjoying some bikini time on a yacht with British TV presenter Steve Jones. Apparently the two have been spending lots of time together lately, since her breakup with Milo Ventimiglia a few months ago. At 32, Steve is 12 years older than Hayden so tell us — are you surprised she's dating another older man?

well alot of women go for older men. i just hope she is mature enough for him.
1She's 20 and he's 32? That's kind of icky to me.
212 years in and of itself isn't that bad -- (30 and 42, etc) but she can't drink legally and he's 32? weird.
Steve's pretty charming but he seems like he might quite immature, if she's mature for her age, maybe they balance out around the mid-twenties...
3he presents t4 in the uk and hes so sleazy with all his guests, ick he is not cool!
4weird. my rule on age is if he can't take me out for a drink, then forget it.
5I'm kinda shocked, Steve Jones????
6He's known to be a womanizer (he even had a fling with Pam Anderson), so I don't know about this one...
she has serious daddy issues.
7Weird.
Daddy issues. I agree.
8For a second I thought this was about Hayden Christensen.
9alot of ppl go out with older men..
10no - she's ALWAYS been with older guys and at least she's legal this time around.
that's a good thing .
11steve jones...hmm i still dont get all the fuss. BUT if she hangs out in the uk with him she is at legal drinking age btw
12I always think that if you are truly wise/intelligent/mature/whatever there is absolutely no need to make any claims to that effect yourself.
13On the other hand if you do proclaim yourself really mature for your age, chances are you are not.
But then again, I just don't like Hayden very much.
I don't know her new bf, but Milo was quite a catch.
My answer is "No," but not because she's always talking about how mature she is. (a) I don't listen to Hayden Panetiere talk and (b) given her history, it's clear she's got some sort of older-man thing. On top of that, she *is* a very young professional woman, making it more difficult to find someone not in the entertainment business her own age with whom to share things...
The dudes, well, who wouldn't want a 20 year old, pretty hot (not IMHO, but), rich girl hanging out on your yacht?
14no. people tend to pick the "same person" over and over again. she's an adult now, so it doesn't bother me. i think he's creepy for wanting to date someone so young, but she's at least legal.
15once u go "older", you never go back!
16LOL mareepossa.
I've always dated older man myself. When I was her age, he would be around 4-8 years older than I am.
17Now I'm married to a guy 12 years older than I am
As long as there are men that like dating younger women there will be women that like dating older men. And vice versa.
18Everybody has their issues, be it about age, social status, financial status, character, looks or whatever other thing defines what you look subconsciously in the other person.
There's an 18 year difference between my fiance and I. So I know that there are those rare occasions where it works. Good for them if they're happy!
19i love milo. im glad she is no longer with him. she seems to like older men, so this isn't very surprising
20she is an adult she can do what ever she wants
21I don't find her to come off as mature as she claims to be, but whatever!
22Another fugly gold digger! Big surprise. Stop the press.
23i don't think she is mature.she personally comes off as shallow to me so i'm not surprised she's with another older man.
24Maybe in the entertainment industry you grow up faster? Then there's Miley and her older guy
25Hayden is 19 still, making Steve Jones 13 years older than her
26I thought Steve was going out with Fearne Cotton (another British presenter) - just cos a guy and a gal are seen together - does not mean they're going out!!! Don't fall into the media trap of believing everything you're presented!
27I thought Steve Jones was going out with Fearne Cotton (another Brish presenter)? Anyways - just cos a guy and a gal are seen together - does not mean thaty are automatically going out!!!
28Daddy issues? What? Her dad was 13 when he had her? It's not like he's 50 years old. I have more issue with Amber Tamblyn and David Cross. But they are all adults so who the eff cares what we think?
29she's legal, and the poll don't matter. it's like points on whose line is it anyway.
she can do whatever she wants. and he's kinda hot, so why not?
30Don´t be so hard with her. You never know where you´ll find love. My bf is older than me and than don´t matter.
It's the best relationship I've ever had 'cos he knows what he wants and don't act like a child.
xx
31steve jones is a loser he is sooooo washed up and soo is she cant they just get rid of her on heroes !!!!
32her career is gone
to be honest, she probably finds that boys her age are immature.
steve jones is hot!!!! and yes he does have a bit of a reputation for being a womanizer... but i don't think he's ever really come accross as being anything more than a gentleman. he's just had a few dates with high profile women- pamela anderson and halle berry. he was going out with fearne cotton but they've broken up now- and really 3 girls in god knows how many years? if they weren't famous noone would even know and it's not exactly high numbers.
i hope this works out- i think she's cute too. but i do have a soft spot for milo!
33also what i should've said first of all is- we don't even know if they are actually dating!
34I don't think she's weird for dating an older man, but when a man that much older dates a girl so young, it makes you think he's just looking for a hot young fling to make himself feel younger. IDK.
35I'm not surprised she's with an older guy b/c all of her bf's have been older. Maybe she has daddy issues, b/c her family life isn't exactly peachy. It's interesting to me that she was an that Candies event that promoted abstinence only when I highly doubt living that lifestyle esp. with the older men she's been with. Nonetheless, I do like her and she seems like a cool person.
36shes mature for her age so no im not suprised
37it's her life - guys her own age are probs to immature. there is nothing wrong with this at all and no im not surprised. don't make mean comments about her having daddy issues though, maybe she just likes older guys for other reasons i mentioned
