Dolly Parton offered a tender message of solace to the loved ones of Brandon Blackstock, a talent manager who died from skin cancer last week at the age of 48. Blackstock was the ex-husband of Kelly Clarkson and the former stepson of Reba McEntire.

Dolly Parton offers grief advice to Kelly Clarkson and Reba McEntire following Brandon Blackstock's death, encouraging them to honor his memory.

Blackstock’s ex-wife Clarkson—who shared daughter River, 11, and son Remington, 9, with the late talent manager—and his stepmom McEntire are reportedly “devastated” by Blackstock’s death on August 7, which comes after a three-year cancer battle.
