Who Is Gary Glitter’s Ex-Wife Ann Murton?

Ann Murton is the ex-wife of Gary Glitter. The couple got married in July 1963. The following year, they had a son called Paul and in 1966 a daughter, Sarah. They divorced in 1972.

There isn’t much information about Ann Murton as there is no information about her personal and early life. She is a private person and has managed to keep herself from the media.

The BBC describes Glitter’s fall from grace as dramatic and specular. The last 1990s saw his image become irreparably tarnished, following his 1997 arrest and 1999 conviction and imprisonment in the United Kingdom for downloading thousands of items of child pornography.

Glitter was expected to die in jail due to the length of his sentence or be released in 2031. But in October 2021 there were reports that he could be put on day release and work in the community, and would be eligible for full release by February 2023.
