Dolly Parton is Miley Cyrus's godmother. Apart from that, Genealogy and family tree tracking site Ancestry announced on Monday that by using “billions of historical records and public family trees,” they’ve discovered that both of them are actually seventh cousins, once removed.
Their common ancestor is a man named John Brickey, who was born in Virginia in 1740, according to Ancestry. Brickey is Parton’s sixth great-grandfather and Cyrus’ seventh great-grandfather.
Parton tells Access Hollywood, “We’re so close, Miley and I. I’d have thought we’d have been at least third cousins. It doesn’t surprise me because she does feel like family.”
