RANDY PARTON
Randy is a singer and performer. In any case, his big claim to fame is his huge disaster with the Roanoke Rapids Theatre in Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina. He signed a deal to manage and perform in the theatre. Unfortunately, it did not exactly work out for him.
WILLADEENE PARTON
Willadeene is an author. In 1996, she published a memoir called "Smoky Mountain Memories: Stories from the Hearts of the Parton Family." She also wrote the cookbook "All-Day Singing & Dinner on the Ground."
CASSIE NAN
Cassie is also a singer, according to Heavy. In 2013, she performed in the Dollywood show called "My People" with her brother Randy.
ROBERT LEE, DAVID, AND COY PARTON
Not much is known about Robert, David, and Coy since they remained private and out of the entertainment industry. At times, they can be seen going with Dolly to occasions.
LARRY PARTON
Larry was the 9th of 12 children born to Avie Lee and Robert Lee Parton. Sadly, he passed away at only four days old.
DOLLY'S RELATIONSHIP
Dolly Parton has been hitched to husband Carl Thomas Dean for over five decades. However, the couple kept their relationship out of the spotlight, as reported by Taste Of Country.
Dolly was only 18 years old when they initially met. While the twosome never had kids during their marriage, it is something that the singer has been able to become accustomed to over the years.
