Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton aren’t just like family — they are blood relatives
As a cinephile with a deep appreciation for the rich tapestry of family connections and the magic of cinema, I find this story about Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus to be nothing short of enchanting. The revelation that they are seventh cousins, once removed, adds an unexpected layer of depth to their already heartwarming bond. It’s as if a scriptwriter penned this connection to underscore the themes of love, kinship, and the power of music in our lives.
This makes perfect sense.
Miley Cyrus’ fiery godmother, Dolly Parton, is her seventh cousin, once removed.
During a chat with “Access Hollywood”, the legendary country musician learned unexpected news regarding her cookbook collaboration with her sister, titled “Good Lookin’ Cookin'”. The book is designed to offer a year’s worth of meals.
Referring to which twin here, neither Willadeene, Stella, nor Cassie – I’m thinking about Rachel instead. She belongs to the group of six sisters and seven brothers that Dolly Parton comes from. Their family tree is expansive enough to give a run for its money to General Sherman’s!
As I was shown the Ancestry.com results connecting me to Cyrus, I couldn’t help but exclaim, “Could this be real? Incredible!” in sheer astonishment.
According to Access Hollywood, it’s been uncovered that Cyrus and Parton share a common ancestor named John Brickey, who resided in Blount County, Tennessee, which isn’t too far from the location of Dollywood as we know it today.
Parton expressed that she wasn’t taken aback since Cyrus had always seemed like part of the family to her, just as many others did.
“I’m sure she’ll get a kick out of that,” Parton said.
Cyrus frequently expresses gratitude towards her godmother. In an interview with W magazine in June, she said, “Dolly has been more like a mother to me.” She also mentioned that Dolly Parton had sent her a fax on Mother’s Day, which is fitting given that she is 78 years old.
Cyrus, who doesn’t have a fax machine handy, said she has to pick up faxes at her lawyer’s office.
Dolly’s message conveyed: “Just how deeply I cherish you? That’s as vast as the capacity of my heart and as expansive as the stretch of my arms.
What touched Cyrus deeply was having a godmother with such a large heart, as it would move anyone fortunate enough to have one like hers.
