“Grace is my love, she’s my daughter and I love her so much,” Judd, 62, told him People in an image published on Wednesday, September 30. “She’s addicted to meth, and it’s devastating.”

Us News broke in August that a judge had denied Kelley’s recent transfer for temporary leave in the midst of her pregnancy.
“No, I don’t know anything,” Judd told him People when asked about her daughter’s pregnancy. “I’m heartbroken, and she cut me off a year ago. I’m walking a very interesting tour right now, where I have very little.”
The country singer also said that she first found out about Kelley’s pregnancy through TikTok.
“I lay there, and I was shocked, just as you can imagine,” Judd said. “I cried and cried and cried because I have another grandmother, I think.”
Judd and her husband, Cactus Moserhas adopted Kelley’s 4-year-old daughter, Kaliyah. The couple, who are also grandparents to Judd’s 2-year-old son Elijah, have rarely been in contact with Kelley since.
“I miss her a lot, and I’ve missed a lot of years because of drug addiction,” Judd told People. “I’ve spent half a million dollars on programs trying to do the right thing, trying to do the next right thing. And meth is a drug. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever experienced, and I can’t believe it.

Judd, who shares Grace and Elijah with her ex Arch Kelley IIIremains hopeful that her daughter will find “healing” and “stop blaming me.”
“She’s 30. There comes a time when you can’t blame him anymore,” she said in the image on Wednesday. “You have to look after yourself.”
