Dolly Parton never recovered from the death of her husband, Carl Dean, a friend tells In Touch exclusively.
"It was a bad time for her," Jason Pirro, who worked as the country icon's driver for 58 years, says of Dean's March 2025 death at 82 following an Alzheimer's diagnosis.
"She didn't say much, but she sometimes talked about how much she missed him so much. She didn't want to make a big deal about it because she knew that I knew how she was affected by it," says Pirro, 80, noting that the pair often traveled between their homes in LA and Tennessee to spend time with each other until he got sick.
Over their 60-year love story, they "shared a unique happiness that seemed to sparkle whenever they were together," he adds.
"I think that's why she passed away so soon after he did," Pirro tells In Touch. "She died of a broken heart, but she didn't want to say that because she didn't want people feeling sorry for her."

As Prince Harry and Meghan Markle prepare for another chapter in the UK, a new report claimed the Duke of Sussex is holding onto hope that the British public's perception of the couple could still shift. Amid ongoing speculation, an insider offered a glimpse into how Harry feels about his wife's future plans and what it would take for them to be welcomed back with open arms.
According to a source cited by Heatworld, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's time in the UK is expected to be split between duty and family. Harry is reportedly set to continue his longstanding involvement with the Invictus Games, along with charitable causes he has supported for years. Meghan, meanwhile, is expected to travel back and forth between the UK and Montecito. At the center of everything will be the time they spend with their children.
The source also touched on Harry's feelings about Meghan's career. As per the insider, he has never stopped being one of Meghan's strongest supporters. He has also not forgotten the sacrifices she made when she left acting behind following intense media attention on the couple since they went public.
"Harry is cheering her on in a big way," the source told the outlet. "He's happy that she's going to go back to acting because he can see how much just talking about it invigorates her." However, the Duke reportedly still carries some guilt over her decision to leave "Suits" for their marriage. The insider noted, "He knows that was a big sacrifice and it's something he actually regrets going along with, so he'd love to see that put right."
On the matter of public opinion, the source claimed Harry remains hopeful. "He's also still convinced that she can win over the British people under the right circumstances. He and Meghan are both hoping there will be some public efforts from the King – they know that will go a long way," added the insider.

Alicia Keys looked phenomenal in bikini-clad photos she shared documenting her summer with her husband, Swizz Beatz, and their kids.
The 45-year-old displayed her curves in a leopard-print bikini top and loose striped pants while posing inside an opulent room that perfectly matched her summer ensemble.
Another photo showed a makeup-free Alicia in a patterned bikini top, this time pairing her look with a tiered black maxi skirt that flashed a hint of her stomach.
A third image featured the Grammy winner soaking up the sun on a boat, wearing a white-and-blue two-piece with a blue cover-up.
Several other photos captured her children, date nights with her husband, and outings with friends.

Perez Hilton's website resumed operations on Monday, as the blogger remains hospitalized following a livestreamed self-harm incident earlier this month.
"At this time, Perez remains hospitalized and is receiving the medical care he needs," his family shared in a Sunday statement on PerezHilton.com. "His treatment is continuing in an inpatient setting under the care of a dedicated team of medical and mental health professionals."
"Perez built PerezHilton.com more than 20 years ago, and it has remained one of the most important parts of his life ever since. Starting this week, his team will begin publishing again, focusing on the day's biggest stories," the statement continued. "For now, Perez's health remains the priority as his team keeps the site active and moving forward."
Hilton, whose real name is Mario Lavandeira, was removed from his Miami-area home by law enforcement officers and taken to a local hospital on the evening of Tuesday, Aug. 4, after police received concerned calls about Hilton. Earlier that same evening, the blogger had hosted a TikTok livestream in which he appeared to repeatedly harm himself, winding up covered in blood in the process.
The TikTok livestream has since been removed from the site. On Aug. 5, the social media platform attributed the minutes it remained up to a "moderator error."

Olivia Wilde has opened up about being bullied over her original surname.
The Booksmart director grew up being teased over her Scottish last name, ******* burn, but explained in a new interview that the taunts had helped her develop a sense of humour.
Olivia, who adopted "Wilde" as a stage name when she entered the entertainment industry, told Dax Shepard, host of the Armchair Expert podcast, exactly how to ******* ounce her real name.
"I'll tell you something - and there's no way you would know this - it's ******* ounced 'Coburn,'" the actress and filmmaker explained. "Which I want you to imagine being a kid, when you're... Because it's spelled 'Cockburn!'"
After explaining her family name's Scottish origins, Olivia, 42, added she had chosen "Wilde" in tribute to the Irish playwright, novelist and poet, Oscar Wilde.
But, she joked, having a name that invited teasing was "character building", and compared her experience to the classic country song, A Boy Named Sue, in which a young man whose struggle with his unusual name left him with a sharp wit.
