- It was a great loss for the world the most talented musician of all time.
Glen passed away on August 8, 2017, after suffering from Alzheimer’s for years. Glen went public about his disease in 2011.
But here I’m to remind the talent of all times. And the thing that reminds us of Glen beside his music was his dramatic married life.
Started married life at the age of 17
Glen Campbell was surely fond of marriages. Four marriages with eight children isn’t a joke. Yes, FOUR marriages. Let’s get some deep knowledge about his married life:
Diane Kirk
Diane was Glen Campbell’s first wife. The two got married at a very young age when Glen was 17 and Diane was just 15 years of age.
It was also reported that they tied the knot at such a young age because Diane was pregnant and Glen wanted to take responsibility for the cause.
However, their first child, Debbie couldn’t survive. Their second child, Debby has survived and is leading a good life with her Air Force MP husband. The marriage that started in 1954 ended 5 years later in 1959.
Billie Jean Nunley
Soon in the same year 1959 on September 20, Glen was married to beautician Billie Jean Nunley. The most interesting thing between the two was that it was said that Billie wasn’t fond of most of Glen’s hit songs.
They lasted as each other’s partners for 16 years by sharing 3 children, namely Kelli, Travis, and Kane. The divorce that was filed in 1975 was finally confirmed in 1976. Billie passed away in 1993.
Sarah Barg
He wasn’t lonely after the divorce. He was married to Sarah Barg, known to be the second wife of Mac Davis. They got wedded on the 3rd of September in 1976 as Glen was attracted to her.
In an interview, Glen confirmed that they only started dating after Mac and Sarah got divorced. Since Mac was Glen’s friend, he wouldn’t cheat on his friends by going after “people’s wives”.
This attraction between each other seemed to last only a few years when they got divorced in 1980, just after three weeks after the birth of their child Dillon.

Kimberly Campbell
After three previous marriages, Glen had finally found his perfect match Kimberly, who was a dancer when they met. They went on some blind dates in 1981 and got married in 1982.
Despite the age difference, i.e. Glen was 46 while Kim was 24, the two had a very successful life with each other. The two of them never separated until Glen’s death several months. This lovely couple had three children: Cal, Shanon, and Ashley.
All three children were interested in music like their father. Shanon is a member of a band while Ashley is recognized as a musician although she has worked on only a few of them. The three of them were really great support for their father during Glen’s tour in 2010.

The late country singer had really a dramatic married life. But at last, he got a real partner who supported him forever. And wait, I still haven’t talked to you about the greatest gossip about Glen’s dating life.
He was linked with the musician Tanya Tucker after his divorce from Sarah. The two worked together on many songs and were one of the most talked-about couples at that time.
The gossip grew even more after Glen threw an expensive $57,000 birthday party for Tanya. After some time of interesting ups and downs in their relationships, there was soon news of Glen and Kimberly’s relationship and it was over.
In a recent interview with Tanya with Inside Edition, she revealed that she was hit really hard by the unexpected death of her lover.
When asked about if she still loved Glen, Tanys answered:
“I never stopped loving him”
