Patsy Cline was an American singer who was born Virginia Patterson Hensley on September 8, 1932. She is regarded as one of the twentieth century’s most influential vocalists and was one of the first country music musicians to cross over into pop music.
During her eight-year recording career, Cline had several huge hits, including two number-one numbers on the Billboard Hot Country and Western Sides charts.
Hilda Virginia and Samuel Lawerence Hensley were her parents. Mrs. Hensley was only 16 years old when Cline was born.
Sam Hensley had previously been married; Cline had two half-siblings who resided with a foster household after their mother died years ago.
Hilda Hensley had Samuel Jr. (named John) and Sylvia Mae after Cline. In addition to “Virginia,” Cline was also known as “Ginny” as a child.
What happened to Patsy Cline’s daughter?
The iconic country singer died at the far-too-young age of 30 in an aircraft disaster in 1963. Cline had two children at the time, including Julie, a four-year-old daughter.
Julie Fudge recently co-produced the Lifetime film Patsy & Loretta with Loretta Lynn’s daughter, Patsy Lynn.
Patsy Cline’s daughter Julie Fudge contributed her own real-life experiences to Patsy & Loretta, and portions of the filming took place in the house where the Cline family lived during Cline’s final year.
Fudge claimed that moments depicting “how difficult it was” when her mother had to leave for her career as a singer were true to her memories.
