"I can't remember a life without her in it," said Star, who is the daughter of Parton's younger sister, Freida. "She would also tell us to start drying it up and start trying to get back to work and love each other real hard."
Parton's nephew, Bryan Seaver, broke the news of his aunt's death Aug. 25 in an emotional video shared on social media. However, it wasn't until later that day that Parton's representatives disclosed her cause of death, noting in a statement that the 11-time Grammy winner had died after a "brief battle with cancer" at a Nashville hospital.

Meghan Markle has reportedly faced backlash over the timing of her latest "As Ever" announcement, which arrived just hours after Dolly Parton's passing. The ***** ss of Sussex, 45, promoted a new Spiced Apple ***** er for her lifestyle brand on Tuesday, August 25.
The announcement came less than five hours after Parton's family shared news of the country music icon's passing at 80, according to Radar Online. Parton's nephew, Bryan Seaver, announced her passing in a video shared across the singer's social media accounts shortly before 11 a.m. PST. Soon after, celebrities, musicians, and fans flooded social media with emotional tributes to the beloved star.
Meanwhile, Markle continued promoting Meghan Markle "As Ever" products. Just before 3 p.m. PST, she shared an Instagram post advertising the new Spiced Apple ***** er. The timing quickly caught attention online. Some critics questioned whether the announcement had been scheduled in advance and wondered why the brand did not postpone it following Parton's death.
On Reddit, several users criticized the decision. One commenter argued that "no one cares about anything else" following Parton's passing. Another user pointed to the connection between apple ***** er and the American South, saying the timing made the announcement appear particularly insensitive given Parton's cultural significance.
However, there is no indication in the supplied report that Markle personally timed the announcement to coincide with the news of Parton's passing. A pre-scheduled social media post could explain why the promotion appeared when it did. Still, the timing created an awkward moment for Markle "As Ever", especially as tributes to Parton dominated the online conversation.

Delaware North, one of the largest and most diversified hospitality and food service companies in the world, has partnered with TipHaus to streamline and automate tip management across its portfolio of venues.
For an operator of Delaware North's scale and diversity, spanning stadiums, arenas, resorts, destination restaurants, and entertainment venues, tip management has traditionally meant a patchwork of manual, location-by-location processes, each with its own rules and reconciliation headaches. Since bringing TipHaus on board in March 2025, Delaware North has replaced that fragmented approach with a single automated system that handles hundreds of distinct tip-pooling and distribution use cases across its operations. Today, TipHaus supports more than 40 locations for Delaware North.
"Partnering with TipHaus has helped Delaware North streamline and modernize our tip management process, reducing administrative effort while improving accuracy and transparency for our leaders," said Michele Seaver, Director of Payroll and Workforce Management at Delaware North. "What used to take a full day of coordination now takes just a couple of hours to pull a single enterprise-wide export. Given the diversity and complexity of our portfolio, the flexibility of the TipHaus platform, and the collaborative partnership we have built with the TipHaus team have been extremely valuable. Their willingness to adapt solutions and get creative to meet our unique operational needs has helped us drive greater consistency across our business while supporting a better experience for all involved," Seaver said.
TipHaus integrates directly with the systems Delaware North already runs, including Oracle Simphony, Toast, and UKG Dimensions, pulling sales, shift, and labor data automatically so that tip calculations run without manual data entry from each location. Rather than forcing a rigid, one-size-fits-all model, TipHaus configures to the specific rules of each property, allowing Delaware North to standardize oversight at the enterprise level while honoring the operational realities of each individual venue.

CJ Abrams was the starting shortstop for the National League All-Star team this year. But the Washington Nationals will be transitioning him to second base during the rest of the season, manager Blake Butera announced on Friday.
In Abrams' place, Nasim Nuñez will eventually become the Nationals' starting shortstop. But those who follow the team — and its minor-league prospects — wonder if Seaver King, ranked No. 4 in the Washington system by MLB.com, could soon take over at that position.
Abrams, 25, has had an outstanding offensive season for the Nationals with a slash line of .284/.357/.541 with 29 home runs, 23 doubles, 23 stolen bases and an MLB-leading 91 RBI.
However, he has not been an All-Star in the field. Among traditional statistics, Abrams leads MLB shortstops with 19 errors in 113 games (112 starts).
Advanced metrics credit Abrams with -5 Defensive Runs Saved this season and -17 Outs Above Average. His DRS total ranks fourth-worst and his OAA figure is last among MLB shortstops with enough innings to qualify for consideration (700 or more) this season. For his career, Abrams is tagged with -11 DRS and -63 OAA.

Carlos Rodon was on the mound in live game action Saturday for the first time since going down with elbow inflammation.
The Yankees southpaw tossed 48 pitches (29 strikes) across 2.2 innings, allowing three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out four batters for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
It was an inauspicious start for Rodon. Seaver King took Rodon deep to lead off the game. Rodon bounced back to get the next three batters out to end the first inning. After a 1-2-3 second inning, Rodon ran into trouble in the third. After striking out the first batter of the inning, four batters in a row reached base (a double, two walks and a triple) as Rochester pushed across two more runs.
After Rodon struck out his fourth batter to get the second out of the third, he was pulled.
Rodon would have pitched deeper, but Yankees manager Aaron Boone said earlier this week that the plan was for the southpaw to throw around 50 pitches.
