No, so sad, she was a fab. Esp Jolene. And the work she did for literacy was top notch

Oh what a shame, what an incredible woman she was ♥️

Needtosoundoffandbreathe · 25/08/2026 19:04

Her nephew made the announcement minutes ago on her Instagram. She was amazing. I went to Dollywood last year. Just wish I'd seen her live.

ChewbaccasMrs · 25/08/2026 19:05

Very sad bless her.

NearlyNewNonny · 25/08/2026 19:05

Bless her.
I rarely feel sad when celebs die, but Dolly, 😪 A kind lady, amazing singer. Her songs and voice will sing out for decades.

Sleep tight Dolly

Very sad news 😞

Announcement on instagram by her nephew

UpForThis · 25/08/2026 19:06

Oh, no, so, so sad. What a woman.

Great life, so giving, brilliant musician and singer, song writer.

My favourite and one of my biggest regrets is not seeing her live.

NewAchievement · 25/08/2026 19:06

Oh no ❤️

A lot of people dont know about this, worth spreading this about as a great legacy of hers, she did reading programmes around the world and I think had impact in Scotland, some London boroughs, Isle of Man, the northeast

Fab woman

What an amazing lady she was.
