The 63-year-old singer posted a reply in the comments section of Parton’s Monday, March 3, Instagram post in which she revealed that her husband, Carl Dean, passed away at 82.

“Sending you all of my love @dollyparton!” wrote Cyrus, while his wife, Tish Cyrus, also expressed her condolences and wrote, “Love you Dolly ❤️.”

The message contained a note from the “Jolene” singer, which read, “Carl and I spent many wonderful years together. Words can’t do justice to the love we shared for over 60 years.

Thank you for your prayers and sympathy.” The post also noted that the family “has asked for privacy during this difficult time.”
