Dolly Parton shares very RARE sixties-era snap of her ‘supportive’ husband of 55 years, Carl Dean
Legendary country crooner Dolly Parton shared a very rare photograph on Tuesday of herself with her elusive husband of 55 years, Carl Thomas Dean.
The 75-year-old national treasure – who boasts 17.4M social media followers – captioned the sixties-era couple snap: ‘Find you a partner who will support you like my Carl Dean does.’
The romantic post was basically a promotion for the Dolly ‘Vintage Collage Tee’ superimposed on Carl, which is currently on sale for $35 on her website.

Dolly previously honored the retired asphalt road-paver’s 79th birthday on July 20 by recreating her 1978 Playboy cover for him.
Parton was only 18 when she first met Dean at a laundromat the day after moving to Nashville, and they renewed their wedding vows in 2016 for their 50th wedding anniversary.
‘We still have our little times, like in the springtime when the first yellow daffodils come out. Even if there’s still some snow around it, my husband always brings me a bouquet. And he’ll usually write me a little poem. Which to me, that’s priceless. That’s like a date in itself,’ the 10-time Grammy winner gushed to People last year.
‘I’ll cook the stuff that I know we love. And I pack it up in a picnic basket. And then we’ll go find some riverbank somewhere with our little camper, park, have a picnic. Or we’ll pull up to some little Days Inn motel, go in as long as the bed’s clean and there’s a bathroom. We just do our little things like that.

‘Or I’ll do a candlelight dinner. We don’t make an issue of it. It’s like certain days, you feel a certain way. And I’ll say, “I’m going to surprise him. And we’re going to have real cloth napkins and real crystal. I’m going to put the real china out” instead of the paper plates we usually eat on because we don’t want to have to wash dishes.’
Dolly and James Patterson co-authored her first novel Run, Rose, Run – which will be published on March 7 as well as release an accompanying 12-track album.
The $30, 448-page thriller will mark Parton’s eighth book to be published and her 48th solo studio album to be released.
‘I can’t slow down,’ the Tennessee native told WBIR.com on Monday.

‘I can’t slow down. That’s why I would never retire’: The $30, 448-page thriller will mark Parton’s eighth book to be published and her 48th solo studio album to be released
‘That’s why I would never retire because I always make the statement that is so true “that I’ve dreamed myself into a corner” and all my dreams have come true. Now I have to be responsible for all those things. So it requires a lot of work.’
Fans can expect Dolly to reunite with her 9 to 5 castmates Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin for the 16-episode seventh (and final) season of Grace and Frankie, which resumes next year on Netflix.
‘When Covid’s over! I’ve been trying to do Grace and Frankie for years. We worked so well together on 9 to 5,’ Parton told Lorraine in February.
‘It’s a crazy, wonderful show and we’ve been trying to write me in somehow. So when it’s safe to actually do a production, I’ll probably get around to doing that.’
