Dolly Parton's sister denies family feud amid legal row

Dolly Parton's sister has denied there is a feud within the family after a temporary restraining order was granted against the late country star’s nephew.

Freida Parton spoke out on social media after a Tennessee judge granted the order against Bryan Seaver and his private security company amid a legal dispute over the management of Parton’s business interests.

"I’ll say this and this only: there is no feud within our family," Freida wrote.

"No one among the Parton/Owens family is fighting over Dolly’s estate."

She added: "We all love Bryan, just as we all love each other."

Seaver, the son of Parton’s sister Cassie, had provided security for the singer and her properties for a number of years and was personally chosen by his aunt to announce her death last month.
