Dolly Parton’s estate accuses her nephew of threatening violence and to destroy his aunt’s legacy
The estate says Bryan Seaver sent escalating threats, demanded money and tried to interfere with business relationships, court filings say.
- Bryan Seaver, nephew of late music icon Dolly Parton, was dismissed from his role overseeing security at her Nashville properties on Wednesday, according to a termination notice obtained by TMZ.
- Parton, who died on August 25 at 80 years old, had appointed Seaver to oversee security, a position he inherited from his father, Larry Seaver, years earlier.
- Seaver blamed Parton's longtime manager Danny Nozell and Pinnacle Bank for "unexpected and, so far, unexplained actions," claiming the decisions were made in bad faith.
- Although the DP Dean Trust removed Seaver from security duties, the termination notice specifies his personal interest in the trust remains intact; a new security team now controls the properties.
- Despite the dispute, manager Danny Nozell stated the estate plans to complete several projects in Parton's name, including a biopic and docuseries, to preserve her legacy.
