Dolly Parton

The "Jolene" singer told People Country in 2014 that "it just wasn't meant for [her] to have kids.""God has a plan for everything," she said in an interview with the Today show. "I think it probably was his plan for me not to have kids so everybody's kids could be mine. And they are now." She and her longtime husband, Carl Thomas Dean, feel like they already have children of their own:"I grew up in a big old family with eight kids younger than me and several of my brothers and sisters came to live with me early on in my life. I've loved their kids just like they're my grandkids, and now I've got great grandkids!"
