In 1983, she was married for a third time to Al Winters, who was a little over 20 years younger. Her last hit, “We Know Better Now,” only reached to number 53 in 1985. After she divorced Winters, she declared bankruptcy and was forced to foreclose on her Nashville mansion in 1990.
Sadly, Dottie West passed away from injuries sustained in a car accident on September 4, 1991 and never got a chance to make her next big comeback.
