Heartache and Healing: Wynonna's Journey
Wynonna has faced more than her fair share of heartbreak in recent years. In April 2022, she lost her beloved mother and singing partner, Naomi Judd, to suicide—just on the eve of their induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame. The tragedy left Wynonna devastated, and the emotional weight has been heavy ever since.On top of that, Wynonna's daughter, Grace Kelley, has faced her own struggles. The 28-year-old has had several run-ins with the law, including pleading guilty to public lewdness in April and being arrested in August for eluding a police officer and driving with a suspended or revoked license. These challenges have taken a toll on Wynonna, but she's finding solace in simpler pleasures.
A New Perspective on Life
"She's been through hell with her mom Naomi's passing and the aftermath, as well as her daughter's ongoing legal troubles," the source explains. "Wynonna just wants to stay home, cook for her family, and take care of her granddaughter and the farm." For Wynonna, this time at home isn't just about rest—it's about healing and recharging.Because Grace has been in and out of jail since 2017, Wynonna has taken on the role of raising her granddaughter, Kaliyah, who is now 2 years old. "Wynonna gets so much joy from Kaliyah," the insider adds. "She wants to be there for her granddaughter in a way she wasn't always able to be for Grace. These last few months have taught Wynonna to prioritize what truly matters, and staying on a diet just isn't important anymore."
A Support System in Tough Times
Wynonna hasn't faced these challenges alone. Friends from the country music community, including superstar Dolly Parton, have been a lifeline for her. "She's been very fragile following the death of her mom," a separate source told Closer in August. "Now, her daughter Grace's situation is worsening, giving her immeasurable grief. Wynonna's friends are checking in on her regularly, offering pep talks, doses of spirituality, and just being there to listen. They've got Wynonna's back."Wynonna's friends have gone above and beyond to support her, inviting her to dinner, sending care packages, and ensuring she knows she's not alone. "She needs all the help she can get now, and her friends are phoning her, inviting her to dinner, and sending care packages," the insider adds. "They've got Wynonna's back."
