Old scandal shadows Dolly
An old sex scandal, accusing country queen Dolly Parton of having an affair with a schoolboy, has come back to haunt her. And it is putting the final nail in the coffin of her weird "open" marriage, say insiders.
The strong rumours say Dolly "in the most shocking scandal of her life", had a sizzling affair with Blaise Tosti when he was just 15 and she 25. Gossip about the 15-year romance has been the cause recently, of bitter arguments between Dolly and her husband of 34 years, Carl Dean.
But Nashville insiders say 54-year-old Dolly and Carl's marriage has been nothing but a sham for years, with both partners having affairs on the side. Now things have come to the crunch.
A source said: "Dolly and Carl have been fighting tooth and nail over the scandal that happened way back in 1970. He has told her he is sick and tired of being made a fool of- and it's time they split.
"Dolly has replied that she has had it with living a lie. She, too, wants out. She has been on the verge of ending it several times, but it's never quite got this close to a bust-up before."
The singer's biographer, Alanna Nash, said: "Dolly was really passionate about this kid. When it ended, it was a major heartbreak.
"Dolly certainly acts and talks at times as though her marriage is an open one. She is a love junkie and needs constant comforting and approval."
Dolly says "My husband doesn't let me date much any more since the story that I dated a 15-year- old boy way back when. The good thing about age, is you do forget those things. So, if it ever happened, I've no memory of it."
Sources say the affair had painful consequences for the young lover. An insider explained: "Poor Blaise is a talented songwriter and musician. But since the breakup, his career has not progressed.
Thirteen ... and at least a first cousin!!!

We belong together, you and me
Just like the dawn followed by day
We'll always be together
And that's just how it will stayChorus:
It must be you that's always walking in my dreams
It must be you who'll always be right next to me
So when you find yourself alone
Just think of me and I'll be there
Must be you by my side the whole way throughJust like the fresh white winter snow
Our love is pure and it will always grow
And when we're in those autumn years
Together, we'll look back, but we won't shed a single tearRepeat Chorus
When you find yourself alone
Just think of me and I'll be there
Must be you by my side the whole way through
