Dolly Parton's nephew, Bryan Seaver, has announced his intention to investigate how the singer's affairs were handled during the time of her death, according to recent reports. Seaver, the son of Dolly Parton's younger sister, was the one who announced her death last month. He had previously worked as head of security for Dolly Parton's properties for 20 years before being fired last week, as he told ABC News. A court in Tennessee issued an order on September 23 that prevents Seaver from contacting employees and business partners of Dolly Parton's company, "She's Alive," which manages the singer's business activities. The order was requested by "She's Alive" and Dolly Parton's longtime manager, Danny Nozel, who claimed Seaver made "threats" and "intimidation" against them. TMZ reported that the request included text messages in which Seaver allegedly threatened Nozel, saying he would become "the avenger for all (his) family," according to the New York Times. Seaver called the court order "false" and "a publicity stunt" in a statement to ABC. He noted that the order is not a final ruling on the matter, and a court hearing has been scheduled for October 7. The outcome of that hearing may determine whether the restrictions on Seaver remain in place. Dolly Parton passed away on August 25 at the age of 80 after a short battle with cancer, which stirred deep emotions across the United States. In response, former President Donald Trump ordered the lowering of flags for a week in her honor. Throughout her career, she built a vast entertainment and business empire, including the Dollywood theme park in Tennessee, which attracts nearly four million visitors annually. Forbes estimates her net worth at around $450 million. She was married to Carl Dean, who passed away last year, and the couple had no children. As the anniversary of Dolly Parton's death approaches, tensions within her inner circle have come to light. Meanwhile, California, Nashville, and other communities are preparing to honor the singer exactly one month after her death. September 25 has been declared "Dolly Parton Day," in recognition of her role in the film "9 to 5," where she starred alongside Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin. The state of Tennessee had already designated January 19, her birthday, as a day of tribute. Additionally, the Nashville airport has been renamed in her honor.
