Dolly Parton's manager accuses her nephew of threats and intimidation
Bryan Seaver, who announced Parton's death to the world, is accused of trying to extort her estate.
Dolly Parton's management firm has accused her nephew of making threats, intimidation, and coercion, according to legal papers filed this week. Bryan Seaver, who served as Parton's head of security for two decades and was selected to announce her passing, faces these allegations. She's Alive, the entity managing Parton's affairs, has sought a temporary civil restraining order against Seaver.
Seaver has refuted these claims, arguing that the text messages and emails cited in the case were misinterpreted. Seaver, the son of Parton's sister, has been fired from his position as head of security for Parton's properties.
