KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT/Gray News) - Dolly Parton’s sister is asking for prayers as the country music legend continues to recover from recent health problems.

Freida Parton posted to Facebook Tuesday afternoon, saying she has been praying for her sister and asking others to join her.

“Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately,” Freida Parton said. “I truly believe in the power of prayer, and I have been lead to ask all of the world that loves her to be prayer warriors and pray with me.”

Dolly Parton postponed her first Las Vegas residency in more than 30 years late last month, saying she was dealing with health challenges. In her statement, she joked, writing, “It must be time for my 100,000-mile check-up, although it’s not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon!”

Prior to that, Dolly Parton also had to miss the announcement of Dollywood’s latest ride.

Freida Parton didn’t mention what health concerns the singer may be facing.

“She’s strong, she’s loved, and with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know in my heart she’s going to be just fine. Godspeed, my sissy Dolly,” Freida Parton said. “We all love you!”

While Dolly hasn’t done much performing since her 2016 “Pure & Simple Tour,” she has released several books, put together a Broadway stage musical and has been featured in several albums

Pushing 80 and just lost her husband 6 months ago is rough. Hope she pulls through! She certainly made an impact on this world.

My sister and I have tickets to her opening night show in Vegas. Ticketmaster emailed us and said she’s rescheduling for Sept. 2026. I told my sister that I wasn’t sure she’d pull through whatever it is that she’s dealing with.

So sad. She’s an icon for sure.

You’re going to need a refund on those tickets. I have a feeling that Dolly is going to Valhalla.

Rumor is she has multiple myeloma and her immune system is weak

If you can listen to Dolly Parton sing, or just talk, for more than 5 seconds without at least smiling, something is wrong with you.

My first thought was back problems. I would have lost that bet.

amazing how she is loved across all political spectrums. Guess it helps she has done an expert job of being ambiguous about her beliefs.

All celebrities should take a lesson from Dolly. Only thing gained by broadcasting your political views to is alienate at least 50% of your audience.
