Wynonna Judd opens up about grief in first interview since her mother's death
CBSN
Country superstar Wynonna Judd – in her first television interview since her mother, Naomi Judd, took her own life – talks about grief, going back on tour, and more with correspondent Lee Cowan, in an interview for "CBS Sunday Morning" to be broadcast Sunday, Sept. 25 on CBS and streamed on Paramount+.
Wynonna and Naomi Judd, best known as The Judds, were one of the most successful country music duos in history, selling more than 20 million albums. In April, just a day before they were to be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, Naomi, who battled depression, took her own life.
"I got the call, and I went over, and I saw her and that was that," Judd told Cowan. "I said goodbye to her in the hospital, and I closed her eyes, and I kissed her forehead and that was that. And the next thing I know, I'm sitting here on the front porch, on the side porch … you know, and I'm just trying to figure out what's next.
