Cover Story—Dolly Parton: “I’ve Been Blessed”

Superstar Dolly Parton talks about faith and family, how she overcame poverty and depression, and many more lively topics.

Dolly candidly admits that not every career move she’s made has turned to gold. “Well, [failures are] harder in the early days, when you put everything into something and it falls through,” Dolly tells Country Weekly. “But I had a lot of faith in God. And I always try to look for God’s success, not mine.” Dolly also discusses her longtime marriage to Carl Dean, a man who prefers to stay away from the spotlight. “He doesn’t care what I do, and he knows I’m always coming home,” she says. “He doesn’t want to be with anyone but me, so that works out just fine.” The story includes plenty of Dolly fun facts, some of her most famous and colorful quotes, and what other stars have to say about the country icon.
