The estate of the late Dolly Parton has filed for a restraining order against Bryan Seaver, the country singer’s nephew and former head of security, amid allegations of threats and intimidation. According to reports, Seaver, who was responsible for announcing Parton’s death on 25 August with a video, is accused of attempting to extort the estate and threatening to destroy her legacy. Seaver has denied these allegations. The dispute reportedly involves claims that he intimidated Parton’s manager and others. The estate is seeking legal action to protect its interests and Parton’s legacy. Seaver, who had a close relationship with the singer and was tasked with fulfilling a request she made years ago, has not publicly commented on the legal proceedings beyond denying the accusations.
