US country legend Dolly Parton mourns her husband, Carl Dean, who has died at the age of 82.

"Carl and I have spent many wonderful years together. Words cannot do justice to the love we shared for over 60 years," wrote US singer Dolly Parton on Monday (local time) on the online service X (formerly Twitter).

Husband of US Singer Dolly Parton Dies

The singer and actress met Dean in 1964 on the day she moved to the city of Nashville at the age of 18 in front of a laundromat. Dean was three years older. The couple exchanged vows two years later in a simple ceremony. During the more than 58-year marriage to the music star, Dean always stayed in the background and shunned the spotlight. He worked as a construction worker while Parton rose to become the "Queen of Country." "We like to travel in our little camper and are content with the simple things," Parton told "People" magazine in 2015. "I love to read, I love to cook, and I love being with my husband."
