Country music legend Dolly Parton has died at the age of 80, her family has announced.
The ‘Jolene’ singer’s nephew, Bryan Seaver, shared the news via the singer’s social media accounts.
Seaver remembered his aunt, saying: “Dolly opened doors for generations of singers, songwriters, musicians, and dreamers from every walk of life and across every continent.
“She never saw a door she couldn’t open, and the doors she opened made and changed history.”
Farewell Dolly, and thank you for the music. ❤️
