The Judd Family - Truth Be Told
Two weeks after her mother, Naomi Judd, died on April 30, 2022, an emotional Ashley Judd sat down with Good Morning America to set the record straight
Three years later, Naomi’s family is finally ready to open up about their loss like never before. In Lifetime’s upcoming four-part documentary The Judd Family: Truth Be Told, Ashley, Wynonna and Larry share their untold story. “It was incredibly challenging to tackle the subject of Naomi’s death: It was a family tragedy that was still raw. My approach was to really focus this series on understanding Naomi and her life,” director Alexandra Dean exclusively tells Closer of the series, which also examines the Judd family’s struggle with generational trauma and rise to fame. Interviews with the singer’s loved ones, including her close friend Reba McEntire, adds Alexandra, “along with Naomi’s own notes and recordings, give us the context we need to understand her death, why it happened, with far more empathy for Naomi.”
