Wynonna Judd Sends Sweet Nod to Late Mother Naomi Following End of Tour

Naomi Judd, who made up half of the musical duo The Judds, passed away at age 76 in April 2022.

Wynonna Judd is paying tribute to late mom Naomi Judd after finishing out the last of her tour, which was supposed to serve as a final farewell for their musical duo group, The Judds.

Despite announcing The Judds: The Final Tour in early 2022, the country duo was never able to embark on the journey together after Naomi died by suicide in April of that year. She was 76.

Instead of canceling altogether, Wynonna decided to say a proper goodbye to their fans with a final tour that featured a rotating cast of special guests to fill in the large void left by her late mom. Brandi Carlile, Ashley McBryde, Little Big Town, Kelsea Ballerini, Trisha Yearwood, Faith Hill, Tanya Tucker and Martina McBride were among the featured acts on the tour.

"It's done, Mama. ??," Wynonna captioned an Instagram post on Tuesday, Feb. 28, along with a triumphant photo of her standing on stage. "THANK YOU. Thank you to the fans for lifting me up each night, to every single artist that showed up and offered their voice, to the best band I've ever toured with, and to the crew who worked around the clock to make all of this happen."

"I will never ever forget this tour!" she added. "I will say, bye...for now. ??? It’s been one heck of a ride.”

"Mama Judd would be so damn proud," one supportive fan wrote in the comments.

"You honored your momma through this tour," another person added.

Someone else chimed in, "Best show ever. Love Judd music. Thank you for honoring Miss Naomi and giving us a piece of your heart."
