Who was Gary Glitter married to? All about his wife and children as disgraced singer is released from prison

Former rock singer Gary Glitter was recently released from prison after being found guilty on charges of s*xual abuse of three young girls in 2015. The news of his release was first revealed in February 2022 and despite being out of prison, there are a few rules that he has to abide by.

The release comes under license conditions, according to which, a s*x offender could be asked to stay within the boundaries of his residence, follow a curfew, avoid contact with children, and be barred from using the internet.

Exclusion zones can be organized so that the family members of the victims cannot be harmed again. The Probation Service has the right to send the offender back to prison again if he breaks the rules.

The trial involving Gary Glitter started in March 2006 when he was charged with s*xually abusing two young girls and was sent to prison for three years. However, Glitter denied the accusations at the time and said that he was planning to correct what he did wrong after being arrested in 1997.

Although he appealed for a reduced sentence the same year and it was rejected, the sentence was reduced the following year but he was banned from entering the Philippines.

His health deteriorated while he was in jail and following his release in 2008, a few more countries, including Cuba and Cambodia, put a restriction on his entry.

British police launched an investigation into the s*xual abuse against children in 2012 under an initiative called Operation Yewtree and after this, Glitter was arrested again.

During his musical career, Gary Glitter released seven albums until 2001 along with 13 compilation albums. He was known for his singles like Rock and Roll Part 2, Do You Wanna Touch Me, Remember Me This Way, Always Yours, and more.
