Dolly Parton's husband Carl Dean is someone to watch. From this rare public appearance from him it looks he is not in great shape at all, he also required an assistant to aid him with errands.

Dolly and Carl are very much in love and I can potentially see a Barbara Bush/George Bush situation happening here, one dies and the other dies a few months later indirectly from broken heart syndrome or whatever its called. Dolly is in extremely good health but you can never say after you become a widow.

 

Lot of rumors going around that Carl Dean's been in poor health for a while now. I've been seeing several sources he has Alzheimer's Disease and heart disease, but nothing concrete that confirms this.

 

Keep in mind two things here. One, Carl is an extremely reclusive person and has almost never been seen in public. Two, Dolly Parton is fiercely protective of Carl's health and privacy and fully respects his wishes to stay completely out of the spotlight. 

 

It's pretty safe to say that if we ever get any news on him, it will be about his death.

Trash paper writes about a split between Sandra Bullock and her partner:

He seems old in the photo, but fine health wise. The existence of a personal assistant and doesn't mean he is mentally or physically unable, but when you're married to Dolly Parton you have the money to hire people to do whatever you like...

 

He'll probably be around in another several years, especially if we don't hear anything more concrete.

Current status of the Apollo astronauts from what I know.


Jim Lovell (Apollo 8 and Apollo 13) - No recent updates but I believe he's still doing well

Reports that Marilyn Lovell has died: 

Might hasten a certain astronaut's demise, if true.

Marian Lovell's death confirmed by the funeral home. There is no reason for me to doubt its authenticity, as I live nearby.

Sad, very decent people. She was played by Kathleen Quinlan in the film, wonder if she will put out a tweet/post.

That makes two Apollo 8 Astronauts outliving their wives. Frank Borman's wife died a couple years ago after a long Alzheimer's disease battle.
