In Season 11, Episode 2, it was revealed that Glenn had met with Whitney and her brother Hunter during Babs’ final moments to drop a major bombshell. He revealed that in 1968, he had had a romantic affair with another woman while he was training to serve in the Marines. Before he was shipped out to Japan, the woman revealed to Glenn that she was pregnant. The baby was subsequently given up for adoption.
