Dolly Parton invites Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis to Dollywood

Dolly Parton, the Queen of Nashville, has extended a warm invitation to the BritishRoyal Family's youngest members Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis to visit her renowned amusement park, Dollywood, located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

In a recent interview with Closer Magazine, Parton expressed her desire to host the Wales children at her Smoky Mountains theme park. "Oh, I would absolutely love for them to come to Dollywood, that would be fantastic!" she shared enthusiastically.

The country legend, known for her generous spirit and down-to-earth personality, even hinted at how she'd welcome the family. "The kids could go on all the rides, and we'd treat them like royalty!" Parton said, adding that she would serve the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, her famous mashed potatoes. "I wouldn't put on any airs for them-I'd let them enjoy what we enjoy, and I'm sure that's what they'd want."

The invitation follows an earlier missed opportunity when Parton declined a tea invitation from Middleton at Buckingham Palace due to scheduling conflicts. Despite this, the singer is hopeful for a chance to connect with the family in her home state.

Dollywood: a star-studded destination

Since opening in 1986, Dollywood has become Tennessee's top tourist destination, attracting millions of visitors each year. The 150-acre park features thrilling rides, including roller coasters and family-friendly attractions, along with mouthwatering Southern cuisine. Signature treats like their 25-pound apple pie, cinnamon bread, and pork rinds with pimento cheese have earned rave reviews.

Parton's vision for Dollywood extends beyond entertainment. In a 2022 interview with Travel + Leisure, she said, "I want guests to leave saying, 'That's the best time I've ever had. The nicest people, the best service, and I can't wait to come back.'"

While Kensington Palace has yet to comment on the invitation, fans can only imagine the royal children enjoying a day of fun in the Smoky Mountains. Whether it's soaring on roller coasters or sampling Southern delicacies, Parton's promise to treat them like royalty ensures it would be a trip to remember.

Perhaps the Wales family will soon take Dolly up on her heartfelt offer, bringing a touch of royal charm to Tennessee.
