Rumors swirl after reports claim the country legend turned down an appearance on Meghan Markle upcoming lifestyle series—but was she even asked?

 Rumored Rejection Sparks Buzz

July 05, 2025: There’s been a buzz over reports that country icon Dolly Parton declined an invitation to appear on Meghan Markle’s Netflix series With Love, Meghan. Celebrity commentator Kinsey Schofield claimed Dolly’s team was “livid,” citing concerns about protecting Dolly’s reputation and Q-score, and suggested Meghan was seeking to leverage Dolly’s lifestyle credibility.

 Netflix Production Team Responds

However, production sources for the show firmly deny that any invite was ever extended by Netflix or Meghan’s team. According to insiders, Dolly was never formally approached, and the claim of her “snubbing” the Duchess of Sussex may be completely unfounded.

Silence from Both Camps

Neither Dolly Parton’s nor Meghan Markle’s representatives have officially commented on the situation. The lack of statements has left fans and the media speculating about what really happened behind the scenes—if anything at all.

Who’s Actually Joining Meghan’s Show?

What’s clear: With Love, Meghan has already confirmed a number of high-profile guests, including Mindy Kaling and Abigail Spencer. The show is expected to feature meaningful conversations and personal reflections, blending Meghan’s lifestyle brand with familiar celebrity faces.

Misunderstanding or Media Spin?

Did Dolly really say no—or was she never asked in the first place? Until direct confirmation emerges from either party, the claim remains unverified. For now, the headlines may say more about public intrigue than actual drama.
