[@amberk7529]

I have to say that Wynona is such an amazing soul. I served in the Army for 13 years and always would go to the Indy 500 because my unit was in Indianapolis. I was standing at the fence by myself,in my uniform, just watching the cars go around when someone came and put their arm around me. I thought it was another soldier and I look to my left and all I see is red hair and Wynona said Hi soldier. I could’ve just fell over. She talked to me for a good 5 min and was the sweetest woman ever. Then the press noticed and I told her I didn’t want to be on the news and things and she said I’ll go away so they’ll leave you alone when all I wanted to do was talk to her for hours. She is such a sweet, beautiful, humble soul and I’ll never forget our meeting. It was truly precious. ❤️❤️❤️

I LOVE WYNONNA and I love your beautiful story. As far as I'm concerned the sun rises and sets on that woman!!!!!

[@janetwilson4290]

My beautiful daughter had mental illness and she worked so hard to bring it to the attention that there should be no stigma about mental illness. She would often speak to a room full of people about her journey with mental illness and Jennifer passed away in 2013 from deep vein thrombosis a blood clot but she would be so proud of Naomi Judd had she tried to educate the public about mental illness and how hard she fought her own personal battle. 💔 love and will miss you Mama Judd.

[@nancyloomis3046]

So sad that Naomi’s gone. She suffered through so much, yet through dogged determination, she rose above what might have and did crush lesser talents. Not her. And then her two mega-watt talented daughters. Such good people who care about the world and those around them.Wynona with her fabulous voice will surely have continued success and keep her mother’s memory always near. Whether she tours and hits the high charts again or not, she has made it and doesn’t need to prove anything to anyone. And Ashley, what a special and talented actress. Like her mom & sis, she speaks her mind and is not afraid to let the world know what matters to her. I hope we can see more of her talented acting on the “big screen.” What an “American treasure” this family is.

[@katiefoster6624]

Texas Tigress Designs don't worry about Wynona because she hadn't seen her mother in 10 years according to this video. I wouldn't call that love. Plus treated her horrible the last time she was with her and dropped her off on her front porch with her 2 suit cases in the freezing cold knowing she was sick and dying and just drove away. Poooooor pooooooor rebellious demon possessed Wynona. However you do seem to have a heart. I'm very sad about a LOT of suicides when the people were CLEARLY sending out every signal there is, saying I'm hurting more than I can bear please just love me. But she didn't get that love from her daughter. I've kinda kept up with these 2 for over 20 years and now I'm just watching the videos because of the very sweet classy lady Naomi that had unbearable pain but is the one that GOT her daughter where she's at. Wynona needs to remember that but I'm sure she won't.

[@teebzr5975]

You can tell she is very difficult and now I see why Wynonna is the way she acts with her mom

[@patty4709]

Wynona, I didn’t know about my biological father until I was80 years old. My mother passed away at 46 and never told me anything. When Ancestry came about, I submitted my DNA and was match immediately. Unfortunately my dad passed away prior to Ancestry. I have met 3 half brothers and 1 half sister that are great. Not knowing who you belong to was hard. Now, my soul is at peace. I lost my oldest son to a heart attack in 2022. I have another son who gave me three beautiful granddaughters. In Feb 2024, I became a great grandmother. My husband passed away at age 36 and I am a happy single 84 year old. You mom did her best with what she had to work with. We all love you Wynona.

I grew up loving the Judds. Watching this episode, I really feel for Wynonna. Her mom was a fighter and survivor, yet seemed to be all caught up in herself. While listening to this, I noticed every time Naomi was on, she was talking about herself; her pain; her trauma. When Wynonna talked it was about her mom, her career, the upcoming tour, her family. That is very telling to me. I hope they are at peace with each other. Relationships are hard. I can only imagine how difficult it was to be both mother & daughter & show business partners.

Naomi had some narcissistic qualities for sure. Anyone who has dealt long term with someone who suffers from mental illness, knows it takes a toll on you. Everything is always centered around that person and their wants, desires, etc. And if you don’t give them the attention they’re looking for, they will force you to by manipulating situations.

His 12 year old sister didn’t know he was adopted. I’d known the family since he was about 8 and I didn’t know until he found out. Shortly after his discovery he started acting out.. getting in trouble at school, going from good grades to bad grades, as an adult in his late 30’s he still is in and out of jail/ prison. Family secrets damage people in so many ways. As a Behavioral Health nurse since 1985 I see so many disorders in Naomi’s behavior that is hurtful to Wynonna.

[@user-re6fx7lj5f]

In my opinion, all mothers usually have some disagreements once in a while with each other, throughout raising our kids and into adulthood. Some get brushed under the rug and others get pushed down inside and sometimes disappear and while the others blow up. There is no manual on how to parent or how to be a daughter, or even be in that daughter/friend relationship. Families can have close, special relationships or explosive, distant relationships. My hopes are that Ashley and especially Wynnona, don't blame themselves for their Mother's mental health struggles. Like Ashley said in one video after Naomi passed away, that mental health issues are not the child's fault. This is so true. There are times we fail in motherhood and other times, we triumph. We are blessed that The Judds shared their lives, their stories, their music and songs and were in our lives for decades. We are able to hear their songs for decades to come. Back in the day, we didn't talk about sexual or physical abuse, it just didn't happen. Nowadays, things are more open and encouraged. The great thing about their songs is that every song tells a story, and we can relate in some way to them. I love The Judds for who they are, who they were and for what we have to look forward to, together. Much love to all the Judds.

Naomi chose to be a mother. Her traumatic childhood needs to be her past, not her present. Move on lady. She just wants the focus on herself.

[@melanielapan4632]

Feeling kind of disturbed about everything that's happening in our world right now. The first thing I thought of that would bring me peace is listening to The Judds! Haven't seen this docu-series so thank you so much! God bless everyone!

[@Cookie-kk9dc]

I took care of Wilbert the step dad of Naomii do believe when he was in a facility for physical rehab. He was the kindest man no attitude they warned us about not ever asking him about the Judd's. One day I was helping him and he was talking about missing driving his truck. And how he has a really cool cd player in it. Without thinking I said so is country music your favorite? I turned around with out a word he was laughing he said honey I know what rules they told you it's ok I won't tell you asked if I like country music and to answer your question yes it's my favorite! 😜 I just loved him

Kudos, to Wynonna for having the courage to have a "Do Over" with herself & Momma. You can't make an OLD Leopard change her spots....so know just her "trying" is a miracle. I am praying for you two to get inner peace from "trying" to do this mother/ daughter thing better. "Listening" to each other is the hardest part. Also, knowing yourself is key. Respecting each other as adult women & agree to dissagree..then huge hugs anyway! Love you guys, stay safe & sound. A Nashville girl here myself.

I love my mom but I think having a business with her and living with her would be very very hard. What we need to remember always is that mothers are human too and have demons as most of us do. Sad over the loss of Naomii and hope the family takes time to heal from this. I also feel a little sad for Ashley who was always in the background (although she managed to find success in her own right). That must be pretty hard, too.

[@shawnhall4444]

So sad to hear of Naomi passing away. I think many people forget that almost all families have some form of dysfunction including celebrities. Celebrities coming out and being so open and honest and really putting their hearts out there for all to see is so helpful for so many. God bless the Judd's and their families and friends during this extremely difficult time. May God help you all ride the waves of grief. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

[@MsNooneinparticular]

Exactly. When it's good with my mom, it's great. When it's not, look out. We both have depression and have been medicated for years so can relate to this story. There's something unnatural about grown children spending that much time with their parents IMO. We're meant to "leave the nest" so to speak. So sad to hear of Naomi's passing.

@@sherridillon2767 I did watch six episodes of their tour together last night. I was struck by the relationship. I’m not sure where the harshness in their relationship came from. I did find Naomi to be remarkably beautiful, and sweet in nature. She really seemed to want to connect and make things right. I truly can’t imagine what happened in the end…why was she left with a gun, why did she get combative, why was her husband out of State? Was she confused on many medications? It is truly tragic for all involved. I think Wynonna has a big heart, but clearly there was unresolved tough stuff going on. You sound a bit unsettled, but you will be OK. Cast your cares above, that’s the best we can do. ✌️🙏❤️

As much as I adore The Judds and I adored Naomi Judd, when I read her book Love Can Build A Bridge and when I watched this documentary, I realized how my own mother was manipulating and controlling and how I could relate to Wynonna’s behavior of rebellion in her younger years. Naomi Judd was a phenomenon in her own way; and helped me to understand her mental illness is so much like my mother’s mental illness which she refuses to accept.

The good and the bad, what a beautiful and loving relationship Wynonna and Naomi really had. My Mom passed away in 2018. My Mom and I had good times and bad times, and no matter what we loved one another deeply and unconditionally. My Mom was my whole world. And I can see that same strong bond between Wy and her Mom. The grief of losing my Mom has been complicated, so deep. I'm praying for Wynonna. My heart breaks for her. I know she's gonna miss her so much. You lose a huge part of you, when you lose someone you love so much. Naomi was a beautiful soul. She shined. Saw The Judds in the 90s and what an amazing show it was. My heart goes out to Wynonna and Ashley. We will see our Mom's again one day in Heaven.

I never knew Naomi had deep depression, she seemed so happy. We just never know, what's on the inside of anyone. Life is hard, and with the Love of my Saviour I would have given up. He has 🐝 there for me through the hard times, he has shown me strength. If only I would of gotten into the music business back in 1977 when Charlie Lamb wanted to take me over to RCA and sign me on, I may have been there for Naomi , she was a beautiful, precious soul. I will miss her, it saddens me how she left this world.

[@Ph.D..]

I so pray that these dynamic three find peace within themselves & within each other. Lord knows they have earned & truly deserve it. They are all survivors of a lot of torment & pain & that is the only reason they have these complex, difficult but loving relationships. Some have idealic home lives, two loving parents, stable home, etc., etc. but most haven't & it shapes how you interact, associate & communicate with each other and the world. At least they have recognized their triggers & know what sets them back and that is a feat. I commend their dedication & steadfastness. It's easy to judge them, think you know them, but you don't. You only know of them & what you think you know of them. They have given the world so much and it's ok to take care of themselves now. They are worth it! Thank you both for your strength & gift and allowing us to share a small part in your lives.

Wynonna, you are truly a beautiful and gifted singer. I had struggles growing up with my Mom so I can identify with you. With my Mom dying from cancer, I had time to talk with my Mom because I helped take care of her until the end. The hurt that had been buried deep inside of me through my childhood into adulthood was all laid to rest. My Mom finally told me that I was a good Mom to my boys. Compliments from her were far and few between. I did not always like her, but in the end, she was my mother and all I wanted from her was to be told that she loved me. It seemed like forever for it to come but it finally did. Just treasure what time you have together, good and bad.
