When country music icon Dolly Parton died at 80 on Aug. 25, her nephew and head of security, Bryan Seaver, was the one who delivered the news on social media. Now, Parton's estate is apparently moving on from Seaver.
Seaver has been fired from his security role, per a termination notice obtained by TMZ, and his security companies have been dismissed from Parton's Nashville homes, her museum and warehouse. Replacement guards have already taken their posts at those locations, TMZ reports.
The termination letter reportedly noted that Seaver's personal interest in the DP Dean Trust, which controls Parton's properties and business matters, is still intact.
Here's what we know about Seaver.
Who is Bryan Seaver?
Seaver is the son of Cassie Parton, Dolly's sister, and Larry
Seaver, Dolly's former head of security. After succeeding his father as Dolly's head of security, Bryan -- who toured with Dolly as a child -- held the role for over 20 years. Bryan's sister has also worked for Dolly, serving as the executive director of her Nashville museum.
