![Wynonna Judd reflects on her career and mother, and talks about her new album [full version]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/KXprWYLjBi4/mqdefault.jpg)
Larry, Please do notblame yourself. Please do not blame yourself. You did the best you could, with the knowledge that you had, under difficult circumstances. My heart goes out to you and the girls. Thank God for the unending support from Ashley.
Prayers for Larry, Ashley and Wynonna🙏🙏🙏
God Bless U Larry!!!!! And God Bless Ashley for taking time out of her busy schedule to love on u daily. Bless Ashely & Wynonna
Kudos to Larry for this candid interview. It takes a lot to admit one could’ve been more compassionate & taken a different approach. Prayers for anyone suffering anything but I make a special mention of anyone struggling with their mental health who feels judged, misunderstood & mistreated. 🙏🏻
God Bless you Larry, you did the best you could ,we all wish we would of done something differently we are only human. But you loved Naomi ....don't beat yourself you ...Many Blessing for you Sir. Prayers for you Sir...
So why did he admit to pushing her so much? How do you know he did the best he could?
Thanks Larry for being with her in good and bad times!❤
Larry may god and his angels bring you strength in your times if grief and they give you a sense if peace. May you cherish all your memories with Naomi and let her light shine through you I pray for a great sense of healing for you and your family. Rip Naomi Moma Judd
Brother, you did the best you could. You would not have prevented this. God bless you.
Larry, Naomi knew you loved her. I heard her say in one of her videos that she wouldn't know what to do without you, and she knows of no other man that would have been as kind and loving to her as you were. I guess most people after they stop and look back they would say, I should have done this, or I should have done that and maybe I shouldn't have done this. Actually it's no one's fault. You can only do so much to help them on their path no matter how much it hurts. I could see how much you loved and cared about her. I could see it in your eyes and heard it in your voice. I have never met Naomi, and believe me I would have loved to. She was one person you couldn't help but love. She had so much talent, she was highly intelligent, she was fun and had a great sense of humor. She was absolutely and totally beautiful She was very caring about everyone, and like me she loved all animals. She could have been my twin sister in another life. I loved her with all my heart and I always will. The day I heard she passed so unreal. It was like someone punched me in the stomach, and I couldn't get my breath. I've never met her, but I miss her and I mourn for her. It's kind of odd how we never met in this life, and I feel so close to her. It boggles my mind.
I'm at the point where I lost my whole family. I know how hard it is to spend Thanksgiving all alone, and have no one to talk to. It's extra hard because there's nothing I can do about it, but I was raised tough. There was never any hugs, or I love you from anyone in my whole family. So I guess all in all, I got to be like a stone wall. Anyway Larry you hang in there. I too wish I could talk to you sometime, and maybe help you.
At this time it is hard to believe and accept that time will help.Have not been thru circumstances as this, but at my age have had my share of events. Peace be with you and yours. Grandma H age 83😇🌹
I hope he can learn to give himself grace. Naomi surely want that for him. Hind sight isn’t the same!! Hope there’s healing for this family too, God Bless
Thankyou for sharing your story, Larry. Don't beat yourself up, you did what you thought was right at the time. I pray you have peace in knowing you tried to do your best.
Larry, thank you for sharing this advice. It's helpful for caregivers. You were only trying to help Naomi.it's an illness, she was drowning, and couldn't stay above water. She is free now! God has her in the choir. God bless you.
I'm so glad Ashley keeps in touch with larry,Larry, wy,will come around. He seems like a good guy no one knows what someone is going to do.god bless
Oh right, because "she's just so busy" .. seriously?
Ll
Larry, My friend I feel the pain.
Great advice praying for all of you !
Good interview
Dear Larry, thank you for your honesty and speaking about your mental health as well as that of Naomi. Suicide always leaves the survivors feeling very guilty and wondering what they could have done to change things. Did you know that some depression is so deep and powerful that no measures can reach it or shift it? You gave Naomi the greatest gift which was loyalty, in sickness and in health. May you be well.
Very well said @SherrieDavidson....you do truly understand the disease.
He and Naomi had mental illness, why her kids didn't pay more attention to it.I still wonder why Naomi had a gun, when they when she had mental illness.
He seems like a very caring person with a heart I see what it said about Wynonna being the mad at thanks giving he give her love for manners years is that all he could do Wynonna is always mad about something she needs to check her mental illness cause she has one she is never happy when her mother was a live she fought with her and bragged about
I agree with u. People who doesn't do the every day taking care of someone with a mental challenge, an aging parent or whatever it might be really don't get it! Even though u love them it puts a mental n physical stress on the caregiver.
Total respect, admiration and appreciation for your openness, honesty and frankness about you went through, how you felt and tried to help your wife, Larry. I will share these passages with you- Job 11: 13-19, Psalms 23, 27, 40 and 42 and Isaiah 57:15 Stay STRONG!
As hard as it is to suffer with depression, it can be just as difficult to be the caregiver and support person. You are not dealing with a healthy mind, and everything that might work for someone who is merely blue doesn't even begin to reach the depths of depression. It breaks my heart to hear him say, "I wish I was more compassionate." Short of the correct drug cocktail, there was nothing he could do. I'm glad to hear that Ashley is checking in on him, and I hope someone reassures him and affirms him in all of the care that he did give to his wife. Dealing with mental illness in a loved one is heart-wrenchingly difficult and draining. You are not responsible for, nor do you own any part of their choices. You gave your love, and that is everything!
I wonder if there is more to this interview. It makes me sad to think Wynonna might be distancing herself from him. I wish them all so much love. Naomi’s loss devastates me. 💔
Larry, please remember what that gentleman shared with you about Naomi being on the plane with him shortly before her death. She loved you and your life together. Illness took her. God Bless you!
Depression, it is so hard, just brutal. Hard on those suffering with it, hard for their loved ones. It is indescribable to those that have not experienced it. Under the right (or wrong) circumstances, any one can slip into this horrible disease. Be so careful not to judge.
🙏 for your family .. you are such a blessing to this family .
They love you so much....
Larry look so sad it's sad when you lose someone you love and he was good to his wife, they got along perfect it was just that disease that she had and you can't help it she was a very nice person,,, he shouldn't beat himself up because you can't be there 24/7 to watch somebody,,, I feel sorry for him my heart goes out to you,, you hang in there and God bless you🕆🌻☺ try to keep all the good memories that y'all had Larry don't give up and don't blame yourself
Larry
You loved her and just wanted to see her healthy don’t feel bad for that it’s so very sad what mental health does to people & who love them also
I suffer with it and I know how quickly you can feel that there’s no hope
We all love & pray for you
I think you answering these questions is helpful to help others God Bless You
God bless Larry 💕
God bless you Larry, even though I worked in mental health for years when it’s a spouse, family member or a good friend, you just don’t see how sick that love is. You are too close to the situation. God bless you for advocating for mental illness. It is a disease and the stigma of having a mental illness needs to stop. Again God Bless you, thank you sharing. You are one of the best bass singers ever.
Know you did the best at the time with the knowledge that you had at that time. Forgive yourself. Life’s lessons are learned in layers. We are all here on Earth to learn and grow.
Larry we love you...As hard as it is for those of us that are suffering with mental illnesses we tend to forget that those who love us are suffering in other ways also , they can't help you and they get frustrated with us, anger with us, some walk away some can't handle it ..I pray that the family can heal and I'm so thankful Ashley has such a bond with Larry I mean he's been there since she was 11 ...
Bless his heart.
Larry Naomi knew how much You, Wy & Ashley Loved her! & Yes We Do Push Away, We Do Push For Them To Move Thinking they just don't wanna-But we can't go back to Woulda, Shoulda, Coulda! It Will Tear Us Up!! But We Just Live Everyday As If It Was Our Last With Love, Caring & Kindness Towards Others -THATS WHAT NAOMI WOULDA WANTED! She Was A Sweet Sweet Soul 💖 💔 😞 Keep Asking For God's Strength, Peace & Comfort 🙏
People who choose to leave that way clearly don't understand what they are doing to family members. It's so difficult to try to understand what they were thinking in that moment they took their own life. They leave you with questions and heartbreak.
They're thinking that they can no longer tolerate the immense pain they're in. It's not about the family members or anyone else. And it's selfish to think that someone doing something as drastic as killing themselves is about you or anyone else. Think about the amount of pain Naomi must have been in to want to do that.
You are a strong Larry, and your strength will continue to carry you through along with the love and support of Ashley. As you said so eliquently, one minute your precious Naomi is fine and the next minute she is struggling with her inner demon's that wouldn't let her get off the couch. It's not that you didn't care or love her, sometimes they just need to be told what do because they aren't thinking clearly. At the same time people that are struggling can't handle being smothered either. All the year's that the two of you shared were special, and you were there helping her the way a husband should. Please let God help you and Ashley find the peace in your hearts, to heal. So glad that you have each other 🙏❤
God Bless you!!! Care deeply about you and what happened!!!♥️♥️♥️
Thought of you so often!! If we could only take away this tragedy and this sorrow!!♥️
I completely understand. Our job is not to fix others. We just need to share the love of Christ. It’s God’s job to save His children. I took me a long time to let go and let God do the work. It’s normal to miss our loved ones but I would not change a thing. I am so thankful for my full life. The highs and lows, the ability to feel, for all the experiences this is what real life is like. God Bless and keep you.
Larry,we push the people we love. It is out of love that we want the best for them. My daddy committed suicide in 2003. Gun shot to his head. He was 77 years old and very sick. He called me b4 he did it. He did that out of love because I was picking him up that morning to take him to dialysis. He knew I would walk in and find him. I have struggled with it for many years . No matter,what happens to our loved ones,when they pass we think of the things we could or should have done. :( Reality is there was nothing we could have done that would have changed the outcome. God bless you,Winona and Ashley. Blessings in the New Year and always. ❤️❤️❤️🙏
He mentioned Ashley, not Wynonna. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Depression is very real ,it takes a toll on everyone involved. Strong faith & love is has been a main stay in my life. Many times I felt I was just existing but not truly living life. It's like other disease in the way that research is key to helping to deal & cope & every case is different.
Makes me believe that the family wasn’t very attentive to what Naomi was dealing with I don’t think they were aware of just how bad Naomi was at the time of her death breaks my heart 💔
That was a very honest and moving 4 Minutes
Gods our strength a very present help in trouble . If we let him be.
Ashley is an angel.He doesn’t even mention Wynonna.
God bless you & take care. God is as close as the mention of his name. I am inclined to say that the medications affect people somehow & that in turn affects their health in the long run. So may the whole family be in health & stay in health.
It’s not your fought you did the right thing trying to make her get up thank you so much for sharing your feelings
She was sick …. I think she passed to mark of never getting better anymore which is so sad…. We all gonna remember Naomi is a fun, Goofy, loving person…. She just was. She had her demons like we all have…. I hope wherever she is, she’s in peace…
Wynonna is slowly becoming like her to …. It soothes her. Also wy has the biggest heart, although she’s an introvert… she would go to the moon and back for her loved ones … Ashley is more independent, strong, but also very emotional . So for Larry … don’t feel bad … don’t do the would I, should I, could I …. It’s not healthy
Is it ok to date after a death??
So many think that it's wrong and some think that was it's right.
It's a 2 way street ,right or wrong, up's and downs.
Larry do whatever makes you happy and not what someone else wants ... My nephew is in the same thing after his wife died.... Family...
We pray for you to do the best, for you.
God bless you
So sorry for your loss
Oh snap, yeah there’s definitely drama between him and Wynona. Dang that was pretty blatant, he wasn’t even trying to hide that when he just mentioned Ashley. I hope all of those things gets resolved.
It's never been a secret that Ashley and her Mom+Larry were/are the closest, Ashley met Larry when she was like 10.
@@KeizerHedorah well, it isn’t fair, bc Wynona was with her more.
@Cece Your statement doesn't make sense in regards to Ashley and Larry's relationship, which is what you posted about and I replied to.
@@KeizerHedorah it does make sense, there is absolutely no reason why Ashley and Larry need to be doing things without Wynonna. It’s absolute bullshit that they have completely left her out and get together’s. I mean, obviously, there was drama, and obviously sounds like Wynonna has set her boundaries. But I think it’s absolute bullshit to say that Ashley was closer to Naomi when it was Wynonna that literally built an entire career with her mother. You can’t say that it’s just not fair Naomi put Wynonna through a lot. They are very close, to be honest the whole family is close, and there’s no reason for division, but whatever it’s one of our business. What part of any of that doesn’t make sense to you?
@@cece8095 Oh hun, quit trolling.
Praying for you.
Larry you have 2 step daughters, please don’t forget Wynonna. !! You all have been through so much over the years I’m sure, don’t just discard her & only talk about Ashley being there for you. This just breaks my heart !!! I’m in a similar situation where I’m a step daughter and often feel like I’m on the outside looking into a life where my moms not at anymore since she’s passed on too. I hope you all find peace as a family in the end !💜
Sorry wynonna what he did. He shouldn't have done that. But he did do something try to forgive him God has. God bless you always and stay safe and strong wynonna.
Yassss 🔥
God forgives you 🙏 she knew you loved her. Live now in the future put as much pain behind you one day you both will be together in perfect pain-free harmony . Bind all negative thoughts the devil has no power over you. Love you lots Brother ❤️
Hey Larry you have two step daughters..., remember??? The other step daughters name is WYNONNA! She used to call you pop too until you brought an uninvited "friend" to her Thanksgiving dinner. You could of at least asked Wy if she would mind if you brought someone.
Wow, you must be a personal friend of the family since you are so involved with their personal business
@@artzsteph Nobody asked you for your two cents! For your information I saw an interview when Wy was talking about Larry bringing someone to her Thanksgiving dinner and she was upset so zip it!🤐
Wow. I didn’t know that. Yea that was not appropriate to bring an invited guest which I’m assuming is a female to Wynonna’s Thanksgiving dinner. It was way too soon and he should have known better. I would have been upset if I was in Wy’s shoes as well.
Luv de tub
🙏🏾❤️
Yes
My only son died in a catastrophic motorcycle accident that wasn’t his fault. He was 21 years old and died 2 day before my birthday. I am not well and I am not ok. Grief counseling does nothing for me. I am stuck and I am so lost. Happiness is gone and nothing feels right anymore. Not without my boy here. I am beyond broken. I have no support system whatsoever. No one cares . They have their sons and I don’t so they just don’t understand nor does anyone care. I am lost and broken. My heart is mutilated
I care, I do not know you but I feel the pain in your words and I care. I believe others care too, it is so difficult to see beyond your grief, friends and loved ones often go silent when they do not know what to say or do. Even others who have suffered a devastating loss as you have do not understand your pain as each loss is personal. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you give counseling another chance so you can heal. I know you son was a fine young man and I believe he would want you to be healthy, do this for him as well as yourself. You have so much to give to those you love and they need you. Each day is a new day and a gift from God. May God bless you and guide you.
@@vintagegq HELLO, instead of commenting on the original post , I want to comment on yours. Here it is NEW YEARS Eve & I hope you get relieved this year with the LORD'S help. Please start out watching utube VIDS by preachers.Old school ones - JOYCE MYERS or JOSEPH PRINCE or anything on TBN are GREAT. You can slowly get more & more into
God's promises & I also recommend the classic self - help CHRISTIAN book " THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE ". I could ask you right now ?, what you think our purpose is life ? I can tell you , It's to LOVE GOD. the book tells you. Then if you were to just walk in to a SUNDAY SERVICE at your neighborhood church you can bank on it that you will be welcomed & listened to & make instant friends. I will pray for you , I gotta tell you , your post affected me I don't know you but will hope , care ?& PRAY for you. HAPPY NEW YEAR , make some CHRISTIAN changes this year !! PEACE.
@@gretchenhamlin4282 What are prosperity preachers going to do for her?? She is mad at God right now but she will gradually get better. I have been there, my twin brother was murdered. Every person grieves different, telling her she needs to watch tbn or whatever is judging her faith in God. Just like with my brother people would tell me to reach out, pray to God. I always believed in God and didn't need people telling me to go to church, etc. God gave me peace but, it takes time. As far as some so called Christians, one lady told me my brother is in Hell because he was gay!!! I have my own personal relationship with God and don't need a church, preacher and certainly not some prosperity preacher to get to God! Happy New Year.
I care and feel your pain. My Twin brother was murdered. I was so depressed I thought I was losing my mind. I wondered why God let this happen. Eventually I accepted my brother's (David) terrible death and realized God didn't do it but God did take him to a better place. I had some woman tell me that David is in hell because he was gay and others tell me to pray, go to church and what have you. I have always believed in God and still do. I Know my brother wants me to go on and I am sure your dear son would want you to also. I don't know what else to say except remember the good and please take care of YOU!
I am responding a second time, the first was to a different person's comment which you may not have seen.
I feel your pain. My twin brother David was murdered. I asked God why he let it happen?! Eventually I realized God didn't kill him But did take him to a better place. Some people told me to go to church, pray and so on. I was mad at God for awhile. I know my brother would want me to go on and I'm quite sure your dear son would want you to also. Try to remember the good. I am no longer in deep depression. I have this to say to others who suggest church, tbn, etc. I am better but it wasn't because of a church, a religion or some preacher. It is because of my personal relationship with God. Please know he knows your pain. In time it does get more tolerable. Take Care of YOU!!
Laugh a lot
Stay close to people. And even closer to God. I'll never leave you or forsake you. Low I'm with you always.
Give God everything and he will make things 🙏 right. God can help you through anything . God is bigger than all our problems. I'm not being insensitive, I've been through some stuff . Only God has helped me. I've been there. I will pray for you, God Bless.
I bet he is the light of your life and be in the light of your life for a long long time that’s what I thought to start with yeah she’s been the light of you life ..🤨🥴
In regards to Wynonna. That Thanksgiving, the same year Naomi died. Wynonna had Thanksgiving at her house. Larry was of course invited. What Wynonna did not plan on was Larry bringing his new girlfriend. Yes Larry had, might still have a girlfriend. Wynonna had to internally deal with this. She might not have liked it, but she allowed Larry to come to Thanksgiving dinner at her house with his new girlfriend. Remember, Naomi only passed a few months before. I am sure this was hard on Wy. There was a lot more going on than people know in the marriage of Naomi and Larry. Wynonna was no doubt privy to a lot.
💔💔💔
Let’s reword that…I’ve got my two stepdaughter’s! Beautiful Ashley Judd & Beautiful Wynonna Judd & both are bright lights❤Naomi was NOT mentally ill! She was a victim of evil abusers, which deeply affected her for the rest of her life, which brought on inward Despondency dealing with it! Why can’t anybody see this? It’s the stupid depression drugs that cause suicide, warning labels tell you, and may be the very reason that she snapped at that moment from whatever she was taking! And from whatever was said to her prior to the act. Naomi was the most beautiful, intelligent talented woman, a child of the Most High GOD, and it’s just a tool of the devil to say that she was mentally ill. Absolutely not!!! Wynonna deserves the catalog of the music she made with her Mother!
Come on Larry 😢
@elijahmoses, and so it is that truth is so well stated. I am confident that Naomi thanks you.
@@isthatallthereis7541 Truth is what I stand for and thank you for what you said about Naomi thanking me ❤️ Nothing can harm her now, as she is in the arms of Jesus 🕊🌷❤️🐑
Yeah something doesn’t seem right. If you know someone has a mental illness, the first thing you do is take away any guns etc that they could use to hurt themselves.
Yes. I have said the same thing. She was on so many different strong depression and anxiety medications trying to find what would work. I know from experience that is a recipe for disaster and contributes to suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
I had no idea she was at
the point she was ...
SERIOUSLY ~ Calling BS. She said in an interview LONG before her death - that she had SERIOUSLY considered jumping off a local bridge to end her life - but she knew the sheriff that would have to deal with the situation if she did that & she didn't want to inflict that on him.
And...since this is being put out into the public - why does he only mention Ashley ? Wynonna was her music partner for decades as well as her daughter ... What is she - chopped liver ? We all hurt differently, experience life differently & grieve differently. Wishing them all healing, compassion & peace.
Naomi and Wy have had a very fractured relationship. In the last book that Naomi wrote she spoke of us devoted Larry was concerned her depression was perhaps in part related to the division with Wy. They went a year without talking according to the book
There is nothing you can do if they want to kill themselves. Larry according to Naomi's last book took her all over the country trying to get her help. I think they thought she was a lot better and it then came as a surprise that she pulled the trigger
Lock up the guns! “Suicide attempts are often impulsive acts, driven by transient life crises, most attempts are not fatal, and most people who attempt suicide do not go on to die in a future suicide. Whether a suicide attempt is fatal depends heavily on the lethality of the method used - and firearms are extremely lethal.”
I have a son with schizoaffective disorder and voices that he hears tells him to look for something to hurt/kill himself with and he has often given into the voices. His therapist has told us many times to lock up the knives and belts and things that can be harmful to him when he’s in bad headspace and yes family members have the moral obligation to protect them by making sure those things were locked up or taken away from them if they get a hold of one. I have so many questions about the day this woman died and if her traveling doctor came out to the house because it was an emergency why did they leave her alone with a loaded handgun and someone not force her into going to a psychiatric hospital where she needed to be to keep her safe?
Sounds like Wy is not considered part of his “light”. I saw in a recent video, that she was very upset that Larry had brought an uninvited “friend” to her home to celebrate Thanksgiving. Wy was not happy about it and no longer calls him Pop. She referred to him as “my mother’s husband” multiple times. Pretty ballsy move on Larry’s part IMO.
I saw that Interview,,I'm not Judging him..but that was kind of fast and to show up not telling Wynonna about his Friend. And that Crazy Will.
I saw that video. I was shocked. Very shocked!
I'm on team Wynonna when it comes to Larry's actions during Wynonna's Thanksgiving. What did he think her reaction would be??? I would refer to him as my mother's husband. At Naomi's funeral she called him Pops...but after pulling that stunt at Thanksgiving her thoughts of him changed and I would feel the same.
@@barbaraingram5147 I agree!!!!
It's for families to lose someone but at some point people have to get a grip on that loss, and continue with living yourself. The time that takes isn't the same for everyone. It was stated a "friend", theres more than one kind of friend people can have, it doesn't have to be made dirty. Each one has to deal with their grief their own way.
You have nothing to feel bad about
Your intentions were purely good.
Why were firearms still in the house? You can preach all you want to have care and seek help, but Naomi had a traveling dr at her side always, seen in the docuseries, so why not take the firearms away? This bothers my mindset more than anything.
I often wonder the same thing because when you have someone who suffers from mental illness you have to lock up the firearms and you can’t just hide them because they can be easily found and if someone is in the right mindset they will try to harm themselves. My son is schizoaffective and we’ve had to lock up kitchen knives as well as belts and other things that he might try to hurt himself with metal illness is very real just like cancer and diabetes are. The family had a moral obligation to protect their mother by making sure these things were locked up and kept away from her
No mention of Wy.Maybe both daughters have different relationships with him.Yet it felt like this was a dig at Wy.
Not very admirable. Wy is a strong minded woman. She had also a different relationship with her mother by all accounts. Just doesn't sit well with me he didn't mention her.
Naomi was a toxic mess who did her absolute best, and everyone trying to vaguely cling onto her and her resources without actually wanting to have a full/real relationship with her.... Is/was a user.
Love Larry but Wynonna calls him Pop too what about her
In my opinion, as of 1/19/2023 after seeing the post-it note that claims was written by Noami 🤔 that she didn't want Wy at her funeral, she was mentally ill. Not buying this story with Noami's death. Larry just happened to be in Europe at the time. Ashley said in her interview after her Mom's death, she went to her Mom's house everyday and ate breakfast and loved spending time with Pops. Story of timeline is not adding up with the new story on radar on line. She told Robin Robert's they were waiting for a friend to stop by. Ashley went upstairs to tell her Mom friend was at the house. Noami was still alive when she shot herself. Now, Ashley was the only one at home the day Naomi killed herself 🤔 As per Ashley's claims she was screaming she wanted to die and kill herself. She asked Ashley to kill her. Ashley said, Momma you know, can't do that. Ashley claims she called her Mom's dr to come over immediately that's it emergency. Convenient Naomi shot herself on Ashley's clock. Dr arrived she she finally did it. Did Ashley snap and shot her Mom? None if this story is adding up. Hand written note looks nothing like Naomi hand writing. Ashley claims she put her self on top her Mom before paramedics arrived. Radar on line shows glock on the dresser in the photo with post it note on top dresser by the note. How does dying woman put a gun on the dresser. Larry's commits here are very haunting. Tell by his words Ashley is his favorite gal. Is Larry secretly in Love with Ashley. Wynonna and Ashley have had issues for years. Thinking Ashley wrote the note to further harm and destroy Wynonna. Larry's in control of the money. Maybe Ashley snapped and killed her Mom and staged the real cover-up!
Amen 🙏 you are thinking the same thing as I am thinking how could that gun have happened to end up on the dresser or nightstand it seems to me had Naomi had shot herself that she would have dropped the gun and it would’ve ended up on the bed with her upon discovery. Very odd that she didn’t have anyone to be a companion for her if she was in such a suicidal state. My son hears voices telling him to kill himself and no way would I leave him alone at this point in time. If that was her psychiatrist who came to the house why didn’t he take the gun and take her to a psychiatric hospital he was negligent and failed to do his job. I think there’s more to this story than we’ll ever know
Girl, you need to get a bigger tin foil hat. You sound ridiculous. Ashley has been his step daughter for 35 years. You think she killed her Mom to be with Larry? 😂😂😂
What garbage
He sounds like a nice dude, and he broke down in fairly plausible tears at one point, but why the f*** was he in EUROPE while his allegedly beloved wife was lying on the couch, unable/unwilling to move or feed herself, dreading the upcoming tour and just wanting to die? Or maybe wanting to be snuggled by a dude with some common sense? Did he feel the need to go work at his (probably not very well paid) career, as a singer who was once a backup singer for Elvis back in the day? In Europe. While his wife is having a mental breakdown and just needs somebody to love her?
I thought that was all a bit strange too!
Larry Strictland already has a girlfriend. Not real impressed with anything he says.
I feel the same. I don't think Naomi wanted that Will to be Written the way it was. If Larry dies,,,His Brother takes over???
@Linda Harrelson His brother takes over!. Ok I don't see that being right
Something is very strange about all of this.
Bruhh wym has a girlfriend. The man is still mourning his wife
I really don’t think it is any of your business. Have you experienced a suicide? I have and I found my son’s Father hanging in 2010. Have companionship is the best remedy for the horrific grief you are experiencing. I don’t think anyone has the right to pass judgement on anyone else’s personal life.
Perhaps they need to work through their grief privately. And not run it through the media. If he really cared he would offer both daughters a part of the money because Wynona is more than half the reason Naomi made that money, and deserves it. Yes he is grieving but so aren't the girls and grandchildren.
He also should be careful what froends he makes right now as he is grieving and yet inherited a great deal of money- some friends are only there for the money
I don't really think it's about the money. I mean let's get real neither daughter needs the money! I.think for WY it's just hurtful that her mom chose that way n I don't really think Naomi meant to hurt anybody.
