Dolly has been quoted saying, "wasn't meant to be".

She explained that “since I had no kids and my husband was pretty independent,” she was allowed to have the “freedom” to achieve her dreams as a country star. “So I think a big part of my whole success is the fact that I was free to work.”

Here’s a look at a few reasons Parton never had kids:

  • She believes having children would have changed the trajectory of her career.
  • Parton suffered from endometriosis.
  • She considers herself a mother to everyone.
  • She feels called to help other children.
  • She loves her relationship exactly how it is.

Despite being married since 1966, Dolly Parton and her husband Carl Dean do not have children, for various reasons. She has opened up on this a few times in interviews, and it seems there have been health and professional issues preventing the couple from having their own kids.
