Dolly Parton husband: When did Dolly and Carl Dean get together? Story behind their love

“And after I’d put my clothes in the machine, I started walkin’ down the street… and this guy hollered at me, and I waved.

“Bein’ from the country, I spoke to everybody. And he came over and, well, it was Carl, my husband.”

Little is known about Carl, except that he is a businessman who has kept out of the limelight for quite a while.

But they didn’t wait around before going out on a date and eventually, deciding to get married.
