- Seaver was recently fired from his security position at Parton's estate, with new security teams installed at her various properties following her passing in August.
- Seaver denies the allegations, describing the threatening messages as "rage talk" between grieving friends rather than genuine threats, and vows to protect Parton's family and legacy.
