Dolly Parton’s Sister Is Calling for Prayers for Dolly and Cody Johnson Burst His Ear Drum and Jelly Roll Scores Eighth Straight #1

On Hot Country mornings with Jody & Melody we shared with you on your Country Catch Up that Dolly Parton’s sister Freida has fans on edge after revealing that she was, quote, “Up all night praying for my sister, Dolly.”

 

 

Fans have been flooding the comments with prayers and well-wishes for Dolly. She means so much to so many people. This comes a little over a week from when Dolly postponed her Las Vegas residency because she said she was dealing with “health challenges.” Everyone is hoping Dolly gets the rest she needs and comes back stronger than ever.

Well, not long after Dolly’s sister, Freida posted again…

Whatever is going with Dolly Pardon we hope & pray she’ll recover as she brings a lot of light to our world. Get better Dolly.

We’re also sending healing prayers to Cody Johnson and wish him a good recovery as we shared with you this morning that Cody had to cancel the rest of his 2025 shows.

Cody posted “While battling a severe upper respiratory and sinus infection, I burst my ear drum. The severity of the rupture means I must undergo immediate surgery.

Before the announcement, Cody had been teasing new music from the studio. For now, those plans are on hold as he focuses on recovery. Get better, Cody.

Some GOOD News to share regarding Jelly Roll!

That means every single Jelly has ever released to country radio has gone to the top. That now ranks second all-time only to Luke Combs, who holds the record with 14 in a row.

“Heart of Stone” is the third single from Jelly’s “Beautifully Broken” album.
