Hello Mark. Glenn was married to my favourite actress/dancer Eleanor Powell from 1943 through to 1959. Glenn and "Ellies" marriage had one child "Peter".

Glenn Ford was too ill to attend his 90th birthday celebration in May this year. He had had a few strokes over the last few years. He had been staying with his son Peter, and was living there when he passed away. RIP

Yes sad news of Glenn Ford a fine actor, farewell to another of the greats who surprisingly througout a career spanning over Fifty years was never nominated for an Academy Award.
Made some great movies "Blackboard Jungle " being perhaps the most famous.
As Robert said, he married Eleanor Powell, that was in 1943 and that marriage lasted Sixteen years. He married Four times.
