Dolly Parton and Carl Dean first crossed paths when she was 18, doing laundry at the Wishy-Washy Laundromat. Carl, 21, spotted her and it was love at first sight. And so, after two years of dating, they tied the knot in 1966.
Despite Dolly's rising fame, Carl shied away from the limelight, preferring a quiet life running his asphalt-paving business.
Their rare public appearances together showcase their simple, down-to-earth approach.
Dolly's music often draws inspiration from Carl, like her 2016 album, "Pure & Simple," centered on their relationship. The couple, childless by choice, think of themselves as each other's child. When asked the secret to their long-lasting marriage, Dolly humorously suggests, "I stay gone! I Stay apart."
