Dolly Parton, a country music legend and beloved celebrity, recently announced her retirement from touring after an incredible 76 years on the road. Although she will no longer embark on full-scale tours, Dolly plans to continue creating music and performing in special one-of-a-kind shows.
Her decision stems from a desire to spend more time with her husband, Carl Dean, whom she married in 1966 after a private ceremony in Georgia. Their enduring 57-year marriage has been a cornerstone of her life, marked by love, loyalty, and mutual support.
Dolly remains focused on new ventures, including a rock-inspired album and an NBC Christmas special.
