Dolly Parton had an opportunity to have tea time with the future queen of England, Kate Middleton, but apparently, she refused.
Apparently, Dolly had a good reason for it. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
According to the Daily Mail, the chart topper was invited to have tea with Kate Middleton at Buckingham Palace but unfortunately for Dolly, she had prior commitments that she had to attend.
During an interview with BBC Radio 2, Dolly explained, “This time, Lordy, I even got invited to have tea with Kate but I couldn’t even go.
I thought it was very sweet and nice of her to invite me and one of these days I’m going to get to do that – that would be great.”
And Dolly would not be Dolly without cracking a joke about it as she also added, “But she wasn’t going to promote my rock album so I had to say no.”
Dolly also said that she regretted not having more time to explore London while she was in town, as she didn’t even get to have the time to see in all of the fantastic sights that the capital has to offer.
It goes without saying that many royal fans had a lot to say about this supposed royal snub. Some commented with, “I love Dolly – no pretensions, hardworking but can you imagine if Dolly had gone to KP? What would they possibly talk about?
And would Kate start co-playing Dolly like she does every other confident and successful woman she encounters? That would be something to see.”
Another critic wrote, “I suspect she’s team Sussex! I suspect a lot of people are but we just don’t hear about them. Dolly’s sister Stella has very staunchly defended Meghan, and I would love to listen in to the Parton family chit chat.”
And then there was this comment as well, “I follow here sister Stella Parton and she is unapologetically team Sussex and is not very kind to the RF and their abusive ways.
She has stated that her sister Dolly is much more politically correct/neutral than she is. But I expect Dolly sees the abuse and wants no part of that.”
