Turns Out, Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus Are Actually Related

As a long-time admirer of both Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus, I can confidently say that their bond is as strong as the Appalachian Mountains where they both hail from. Their shared roots run deep, deeper than the Tennessee soil itself, as they discovered they are seventh cousins, once removed.


Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus bond runs deep.

The well-known country artist isn’t just Miley Cyrus’s godmother; she has also served as a mentor in the entertainment industry for Miley for quite some time. Interestingly, it was only recently discovered that they share a biological connection.

Is that correct? That’s simply astonishing!” Parton exclaimed in an interview with Access Hollywood published on Sept 23 upon learning about the confirmation. “I figured we’d be distant relatives, perhaps third cousins, separated by several generations.

In fact, as reported by the ancestry website, the pair are seventh cousins, one generation removed. It’s fascinating to note that the actress from Hannah Montana would find this intriguing. Parton commented, “It doesn’t shock me, though, because she always seems like kin.

As documented in their family history, these two renowned musicians are descendants of a common great grandfather named John Brickley, who resided in Blunt County, Tennessee during the early 1800s, approximately 20 miles from Dollywood.

Ever since Miley’s entry into the Hollywood scene, Dolly has always been a supportive presence for her. In fact, Dolly portrayed Miley’s character’s godmother on “Hannah Montana”. As a result, Dolly has remained close to Miley over the years.

Miley said in an interview with TopMob News in 2022 that there’s an unspoken understanding between them that she can rely on her, no matter what happens. She added that the person is extremely professional and always ready to handle any situation.

During her interview on “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman” (season 5), the singer known for “We Can’t Stop” shared that her godmother has always been brave enough to tackle difficult discussions over the years.

For advice that’s particularly memorable to a 31-year-old, consider Dolly’s saying: “Be true to yourself and let me be true to myself, and we’ll make up ‘us’ together.

While Miley isn’t afraid to gush over Dolly, the 78-year-old is sending the love right back.

On The Drew Barrymore Show in 2023, Dolly expressed, “She’s incredibly gifted and unique. She’s self-aware.” She often hears questions like, “Do you guide Miley?” Her response is usually, “No, Miley is Miley. Miley understands her path. She knows what she requires. She takes action and is ready to make sacrifices for it.” This has always been the case with me as well.
