Dolly Parton and her husband Carl Dean do not have children due to health and professional issues, as revealed by Parton in interviews. Despite not having their own kids, the couple has nieces and nephews who bring them joy. Parton is also the godmother of Miley Cyrus and is affectionately called Aunt Granny by her family. The couple married in secret with only a few witnesses present and rarely appeared together publicly. Carl's avoidance of events came from an agreement between them. He inspired some of Parton's famous songs such as Jolene and From Here to the Moon and Back.
