It is worth noting here that Dolly died at the age of 80 on August 25, 2026, after battling with cancer.

After her death Miley wrote in an emotional post, “The feeling of losing my Aunt Dolly is beyond what feels right to share. Our most sacred moments were private and they’ll stay there behind the stage, beneath the glamour & between our hearts.”

She also revealed that her last conversation with the late singer was about "music and metamorphosis.”
