2021 is gearing up to be a very busy year for Loretta Lynn. After spending the last few years recovering from a stroke and a broken hip, it seems the legendary singer is ready to get back to work.
Like many people, she spent most of 2020 quarantining and keeping safe amid the coronavirus pandemic. In fact, she recently encouraged her fans to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
But even during the pandemic, Loretta Lynn was looking ahead to what comes next. Six months ago, she teased that she was working on multiple different projects. One of them is a new documentary about her life.
The documentary is the work of PBS. Loretta Lynn shared her thanks to the network for all their hard work on putting it together.
Thank you, PBS for putting this documentary together. I still can't believe my life is one for any kind of fuss. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. https://t.co/ZBJic65eZq
