Loretta Lynn said her husband didn’t mind being portrayed as a cheater for 1 good reason
“You don’t write about fantasies; you write about life & true life…what was going on that day. That’s the way I did it. Just life. I mean the songs are just life. I’ve seen it, or I’ve lived it. And I never would tell my husband which one it was” @LorettaLynn #CountryMusicPBS pic.twitter.com/b0VAjrXOoZ

According to Lynn, Oliver didn’t mind her airing out their dirty laundry in songs, partly because she was so good at doing it. As such, she began to amass an impressive net worth — something they enjoyed together.
“He’d take the money the songs would make and run all the way to the bank,” Lynn once told People, “so he was happy!”
