Summary

  • Sally Field used her Monday-night Emmy victory to remember Dolly Parton, saying she "never" stopped loving her former co-star and still vividly recalls their Walmart shopping trips.
  • Field said their bond grew on 1989's "Steel Magnolias," where the cast spent intense stretches together, but distance later made it hard for her and Parton to reconnect regularly.
  • At the 78th Emmy Awards, Field also delivered an onstage tribute to Parton, then told Fox News Digital the subject still made her emotional enough to cry.
  • Parton died on Aug. 25 at age 80, and Field had already mourned her on Instagram as an "angel on earth" she adored and would cherish forever.
