Sisters Wynonna Judd and Ashley Judd have paused their relationship and are taking a breather from one another.
Wynonna disclosed the rift during a conversation with People, noting that she and the Double Jeopardy star are not presently in sync.
“She’s doing her thing, and I’m doing mine,” Wynonna explained.
Their estrangement comes four years after Wynonna and Ashley’s mother, Naomi Judd, died by suicide at the age of 76.
Although contemporaneous reports claimed the sisters clashed over Naomi’s will, Wynonna dismissed those claims in October 2022.
“I have such a great life. Ashley has a great life. Why would we be fighting over the will?” she asked People at the time.
Wynonna went on to gush about how “connected” and “powerful” their bond was after Naomi’s death, explaining, “We’re vulnerable with each other, and we’re tender.”
She did acknowledge, however, that they “disagree on so much … as sisters”, pointing out that the two “were separated at age 14 and 18 by success” and “missed out on a lot of time together”.
The Grammy-nominated artist is gearing up to drop her upcoming album, The Hard Truth, which she has described as her most honest and vulnerable work to date.
The album is also said to contain nods to Wynonna’s estranged daughter, Grace Kelley, who is serving a 15-month incarceration in Virginia.
