Hayden Panettiere has put her wedding on "hold".
The 24-year-old actress and her fiancé Wladimir Klitschko have put off setting a date for their big day due to the current fighting in Ukraine, as the boxer's brother, Vitali, is involved in the reform efforts over there.
Speaking to Parade magazine, she explained: "Everything that's happening in Ukraine definitely put a hold on things. But we have time."
However, the blonde beauty, who announced her engagement in October, has already decided she'll be a "sexy and youthful" bride when she walks down the aisle.
She said previously: "I would like some really long, loose boho beach waves and just a nice golden tan.
"I want to be classy and elegant and sophisticated, but I also don't want to forget my age. I want to be comfortable. I want it to be just sexy enough, but youthful at the same time. I don't want to look so done up."
Meanwhile, the 'Nashville' star hasn't started planning for her nuptials, but she offered a small tease about the event.
She said: "I love colour, so that will play a big part."

Peaches Geldof's sister Fifi has become engaged.
The late star's older sibling, 31, who has largely lived her life out of the spotlight, is set to walk down the aisle after her boyfriend Andrew Robertson, 33, popped the question.
Fifi announced her engagement on her Instagram account over the weekend by posting a picture of a gorgeous diamond sparkler on her ring finger.
She accompanied the snap with the caption: "Boydonegood (sic)".
It is not yet known when the happy couple will tie the knot, but it is believed their wedding will take place next year, as the family are still grieving following the sudden death of Peaches, 25, last month.
A source told the Daily Mail newspaper: "They're going to hold the wedding in July next year. I think we all need a happy family event now."
However, Fifi isn't the only one planning to get hitched as her father Sir Bob Geldof recently proposed to his long-term girlfriend Jeanne Marine after 18 years together.
Bob, 62, began dating 49-year-old Jeanne after meeting at a dinner party in Paris, where he had fled to after his divorce from Paula Yates - the mother of his children Fifi, Peaches, and Pixie, 23 - in 1996.
Paula died of a heroin overdose four years later, and the 'I Don't Like Mondays' hitmaker took on the care of her and the late Michael Hutchence's daughter Tiger, now 17.
Meanwhile, toxicology tests revealed last week Peaches, who was found dead on April 7, was "likely" to have died from heroin after the drug was found in her body.

Cody Simpson has split from his girlfriend.
The 17-year-old singer has called time on his relationship with model Gigi Hadid following a year of dating after their busy schedules put a strain on their romance.
A representative for the Australian hunk told E! News: "Their busy schedules and living on opposite coasts have made it nearly impossible for the two of them to give the relationship the attention that it needs."
The former couple appear to have ended on good terms and are determined to remain friends in the hope that, one day, they might rekindle their romance.
The representative explained: "They decided that rather than let things sour that they split up in hopes that their lives might someday bring them back together.
"They remain close friends and will continue to show their support for one and other."
Cody and Gigi, 19, haven't be seen together since April 8 when they were photographed at the Radio Disney Music Awards in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile, the 'La Da Dee' hitmaker doesn't appear to be letting the split get to him as he has decided to throw himself into his music and work on his album.
He wrote on Twitter last night (04.05.14): "this next album feels like my first. feelin so new. this is MY album too. older with the confidence to get the artistic freedom I've needed. (sic)."

Kendra Wilkinson wants her son to act as a "bodyguard" for her unborn baby daughter.
The former Playboy model, who is expecting her second child with husband Hank Baskett, is trying to encourage her four-year-old son Hank Jr. to look after his younger sibling when she's born into the world in coming weeks.
Speaking to Us Magazine, she explained: "We're trying to empower him and make him feel like he has a role, like he's a little bodyguard. He's taking it on. Every day it's like, 'I can't wait to teach my sister this!'"
The 28-year-old beauty believes she's developed a closer bond with Hank Jr. since falling pregnant with her second child last year because she wants him to understand that he's got a little baby sister on the way, who is equal to him.
She said: "Little Hank and I are becoming so much closer. Our hearts are meeting more, we're talking more.
"We want little Hank to understand there's a little girl coming into our lives."
Kendra recently admitted her second pregnancy has been "brutal" but her husband Hank, whom she married in 2009, has been trying to make it easier for her.
She said: "[He] makes sure my every day is perfect. Like yesterday, he pulled me over, sat me on his leg, and looked me in the eyes and said, 'Kendra you're so beautiful, I know you don't feel it.' I started crying."

Carmen Electra is "happily single".
The 42-year-old actress recently split from clothing mogul Tal Cooperman after their brief romance began to fizzle out, but the blonde beauty doesn't appear to be on the hunt for a new lover as she's enjoying being on her own.
She said: "I'm happily single."
However, Carmen, who had a brief relationship with Simon Cowell last year, hasn't ruled out another relationship in the near future, but insists she will take her time with it.
She explained to E! News: "I'm a relationship girl. I've always been in long-term relationships, so you know, this is the first year that I'm actually taking my time and not jumping into anything and taking it slow and having fun."
Although, the model - whose real name is Tara Patrick - admits it takes a certain type of guy to catch her attention.
She added: "Obviously, he has to be somewhat of a bad boy because I'm always attracted to that."
Carmen recently sparked rumours she had rekindled her romance with ex-husband Dave Navarro, whom she married in 2003 before divorcing him in 2006, after he posted a picture on Twitter of them touching tongues.
Carmen was also married to Dennis Rodman in 1998 before their romance ended in 1999.
She also got engaged to rocker Rob Patterson in 2009 before the pair split up in October 2012.

Richie Sambora still loves his ex-wife Heather Locklear.
The 59-year-old rocker still shares a close bond with his former spouse - with whom he has 16-year-old daughter Ava - who he married in Paris on December 17, 1994, and although their divorce was finalised in 2007 he insists he'll always have a special place in his heart for her.
He said: "Time does heal old wounds. I mean, I still love Heather and I know she loves me. She's the mother of my child, man. What can you say?"
Richie insists Ava is his "favourite girl" and gushed about how proud he is of what the teen star has achieved.
He told PEOPLE magazine: "She and I are close and have a candid relationship.
"Boundaries are set.
"That doesn't budge. She is an amazing kid and dedicated to school. She's acting. The first audition she [went] out for was Judd Apatow's 'This is 40' - and she got it. She's been doing Disney stuff. I'm really proud of her - she's just a joy. My favourite girl - her and my mum, I always say."
Earlier this year he revealed it was essential for him and Heather to keep relations cordial for the sake of Ava.
He explained: "If you don't get along you are messing the kid up. That's what happens.
"So you have to put that before whatever s**t is going on. Communication has got to come first. There's a cooling off period obviously, as you know - it takes time. It was almost 10 years ago though. So we're fine.
"Thanksgiving or Christmas, we all spend it together."

Elizabeth Hurley is "blooming" following her split from Shane Warne.
The 48-year-old star ended her three-year relationship with the retired cricketer last year and although she admits it was difficult initially she's now in a great place in her life.
Elizabeth told Britain's HELLO! magazine: "We finally parted ways in November (2013) and it was a very sad time for both of us.
"I struggled for a while but feel in a very good place today. In fact, both professionally and personally everything is blooming."
Although Elizabeth has moved on from her relationship she insists there will always be a part of her that loves him especially because they were together for a long time.
She explained: "Love isn't a switch that you can turn on or off at will and of course I still love him -- we are part of each other's history."
The brunette beauty has since been linked to wildlife-photographer David Yarrow, who she described as "a man of integrity and charm and who, incidentally, cooks roast potatoes to rival those of my father".

Ozzy Osbourne's barn is infested with a protected species of bats.
The 60-year-old star - who bit the head off a bat which he thought was rubber while performing in Iowa in in 1982 - wants to convert a 17th-century barn near his Buckinghamshire mansion into a two-bedroom home but he was refused planning permission after brown long-eared bats were found in the property.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "The irony isn't lost on Ozzy that karma has finally caught up with him. The bats' natural habitat is prevented from being damaged by law.
"The survey stated any work to convert the barn would affect the bats so it could take years for Ozzy's plans to be approved."
Previously, the famed encounter between Ozzy and the bat was recollected in the booklet to the 2002 edition of 'Diary of a Madman', where he claims the bat was alive and managed to bite him, resulting in him needing to be treated for rabies - which is a viral disease that can cause inflammation of the brain and can be spread through a bite or scratch from an animal.
He said later: "Something felt wrong. Very wrong. For a start, my mouth was instantly full of this warm, gloopy liquid. Then the head in my mouth twitched."
