[@368chen]

It’s a miracle when a marriage in show business lasts more than a year, much less than 40+ years. Barry is very down to earth and humble in all of his interviews. Love that he is a devoted family man.

[@nonenone4219]

What a lucky lady Mrs.Linda Gibb is !! You can tell Barry loves her so much. What a beautiful thing for him to do for her in front of thousands of people.

[@conscience-commenter]

When God calls Barry Gibb home , He will say... this is my beautiful son Barry who beautified the world with his talent and heart in whom I am well pleased.

[@AliceNaquin]

Barry's voice is obviously aging but his heart is still young and full of love for his wife. I am touched.

[@ruthblankenship9067]

The love for his wife makes him so huge in our thoughts. Barry has endured. We have all aged. But with God's grace the beautiful music is still here.

[@comceptionyu3555]

I'm greatly touched. SUCH A FAMILY MAN.

[@vickimarlene4905]

So many people love the Bee Gees. Love you Barry. Wish I had a lovely man like you to sing to me. I’ve never had good luck with men. I’ve been alone a long time. Gosh I adore him and the bee gees. Always and forever. Xxxxx

[@fiveowaf454]

Barry truly has managed to have it all, while it's harder to think of anyone with more musical talent, there are very few having been given such a gift, who can keep their personal lives and everyday affairs in order as he has done. I admire him for that as much as the incredible songs he has written.

[@kimrahe8623]

Barry is a strong good, husband, dad, brother and past son. Indeed he is gifted in many ways yet I can’t imagine his intense pain he has gone through. Bottom line inspite of the gifts God gives it still comes w tremendous pain. My heart hurts for this beautiful man and his beautiful wife Linda. Her love is so deep for him she can’t help but feel his pain as well!

[@kimrahe8623]

He is truly a good man. I'm sure his heart throbs daily as he loves his brothers looking down and Linda. Only differently.

[@faedrummond5882]

Barry & Linda are both blessed for having the love for each other. I can imagine the pain that he has gone thru losing his brothers. I'm sure Linda as well endures pain but differently. Barry is so talented. I Love what 🎵 a music legend ,talented, 🎶 Songwriter he has become. #ilovebarry

No one does it like you Barry Gibb!!! I love you and your beautiful wife!! Congratulations on your marriage!!

[@jenougherfan]

I have so much respect for entertainers like Barry Gibb who stayed faithful to their spouses even when they reach the heights of success that Mr Gibb did. He seems like such a humble genuine guy.

[@kathymccormick7525]

Well said!!

[@Perepetespal]

Not Mr Gibb any more. The couple are Sir Barry and Lady Gibb.

[@debra4576]

Thank you for the music and all your beautiful Words

[@nancyrobinson397]

He actually didn’t stay faithful to his wife , and he’s open about it.

[@kudabear4898]

@@nancyrobinson397 Before they were married both of them strayed but after marriage they stayed faithful to each other. Watch the Pierce Morgan show with Barry Gibb.....He talks about it.

[@ljukgeebee4402]

I cannot comprehend why 201 people have given this the thumbs down? It's a guy, dedicating a song to his wife! Not many celebrity marriages stand the test of time. She has to be one of the luckiest ladies in this entire world lol. I'd have preferred one of the twins, or both! But this is lovely. Certainly doesn't deserve a thumbs down.

[@nancymanuel8536]

I'm still in luv with Barry and younger brother Andy may he rest in peace til we meet❤❤❤❤❤😇😇😇😇😇

[@johnbernhardt2335]

The audience is obnoxious, otherwise it is touching.

[@joyous196421]

He cheated on her so many times ... he admitted it during the piers morgan interview ...

[@ljukgeebee4402]

@@joyous196421 and he snapped back at her in one interview and declared she wasn't innocent. Whatever anyone's views they're still together . In my opinion the best wife was Yvonne. Maurice's widow. Deserved a medal for the support she gave him. Wonderful person.

[@gojazzkdr]

@@joyous196421 Not after they were married. You need to re-watch the interview.

[@kloonst]

His devotion to his Linda really never wavered. He also passionately sang 'Words' dedicated to her in the Spirits tour in 1979. They are two very fortunate people to have found each other.

[@brcfan9]

This song has always been called and known as "Linda's Song" If she's there in the audience he sings it to her.

[@glenyceszymkarczuk9241]

Just beautiful wow 44 years, that is true love.

[@bonnieoles4212]

We love you, Barry! Your wife is a very lucky woman!

[@csanchez4261]

His a lucky man too!💖

[@sandiwatts562]

He was always a hunk! She sure is a lucky woman!

[@carolmoline6490]

He is who he is today because of her.

[@carolmoline6490]

Thank his wife. Who got him back out there. He was really grieving and she got him out

[@bethtaylor3004]

I feel so sad for him to loose all his brothers being the last one left gotta be a tough pill to swallow. But yes his wife encouraged him to get back out there and find his happiness again cause they lived for music it was part if their lives since they were little boys.

[@sheryljones856]

Barry has such a beautiful, voice. And that was,so sweet of him to sing too his wife.

[@nakima61]

'Words' has always been one of my top favourites of the Bee Gees songs, and when it is sung as a dedication to his lovely wife, the song takes on a whole new meaning. I'm sure the people attending that concert felt it too. Maybe it was written especially for Linda, way back when. The words have a special significance when sung especially for the love of one's life!

[@kudabear4898]

Barry actually wrote "Words" for Cliff Richard's but he was unable to record it so our AMAZING Bee Gees recorded it....One of their best songs in my opinion. Barry said in the Pierce Morgan interview that when he sings "To love Somebody" he only thinks of Linda. Sir Barry is the most AMAZING MAN to ever grace the earth....Linda is a very very lucky woman.

[@jimray7833]

😅

[@marlenamislivec1621]

It was written when he was going tbrough his first divorce.

[@Melke.2024]

​@@marlenamislivec1621This song has nothing to do with his divorce. Barry and his first wife stayed together for a very short time. It was a teenage crush for him. He found true love in Linda. He fell in love with Linda in September 1967 and they started living together, but he divorced his first wife in 1970. Afterwards, they married Linda immediately. He said that his first wife meant nothing to him.

[@marlenamislivec1621]

Well I hate to break it to you but those were Barry's words per interview!!

[@peanutsmom5279]

He still has the same amazing voice and smile. 44 years. So beautiful.

[@jenniferbilby3409]

Your love and dedication to your wife is a big part of what makes you a very beautiful person.

[@jenniferbilby4853]

I'm going to correct myself. Sir Barry you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen in my life!!!

[@katie-didellis2437]

@@jenniferbilby4853 yes he is a beautiful man and in so many ways.

[@laurieshreffler5028]

I am sure they have had their struggles. Imagine if all of these women were screaming for your husband. Barry was smart to make sure Linda came to just about every one of their shows. Linda has also been through just about everything Bee Gees. They can be an enormous comfort to one another. I credit her with making Barry get back to creating music and touring after the death of his brothers. Andy, Maurice, and Robin were her relatives, and she loved them very much. It must have been extremely scary to watch Barry in the throes of his depression, not knowing what could be done to help him. It is heart warming to see a show business marriage last 48 years and counting, with 5 amazing children and 7 grandchildren. It is obvious that they are still very much in love, and that means everything!!!

[@antoinetteurdiales4624]

I have followed the Bee Gees since I was a little girl & in a couple of months I'll be 60, & watching Barry sing to his wife was beautiful. They don't make men like him anymore. He's a gentle man & a gentleman. He's a class act. I hope one day I'll be able to meet Barry in person.

I think it's a second marriage, but he also spoke about the trappings of "first fame" and tried to warn younger brother Andy about that. I give him credit for being married for 44 years; she must be a special woman.

Barry is an exceptional husband. It is so rare and sweet to see a celebrity couple love each other so long and for so many years. Barry is incredible... as were his wonderful brothers.

[@missym7245]

The only thing I find strange is that when Barry toured he always took all his family too. It must have been extremely hard for Linda and the children. It makes me wonder who didn't trust who? Barry was asked about this and he became embarrassed and changed the subject lol. Maurice and Robin left their families at home.

I have to give my admiration to Barry , being married for 44 years and i assume he was faithful to her ! I think he is a special kind of guy and he was so handsome when he was younger ! Of course his voice stood out so much and he was also the brain of the group ! So Barry you are loved and keep on keeping on !

[@m_christine1070]

I hope so. But whether he was or wasn't their love has endured. The whole family was exceptional in that 4/4 famous brothers completely stayed out of trouble in terms of drugs,cheating,altercations w neither strangers nor domestic altercations,no legal issues where they are sueing record labels or managers,or each other,no selling out for commercial endorsements,no trying to use their celebrity status to politically influence their fans....NOT EVEN a divorce in the family! These are a family of very evolved,spiritual,peaceful,good,kind,friendly,loving individuals .

[@katie-didellis2437]

@@m_christine1070 I agree with you M Christine on most of what you said. First off each of the Bee Gees was divorced and each wife was their second wife. And the I'm not sure I think Andy's divorce finally went through. He had a daughter named Peta whom he did not make arrangements for in his will. After Andy passed away, Barry stepped in and made arrangements for her care. She is married with two or three children I'm not sure. There really wasn't any physical abuse in their families nor were the police ever called however Moe was an alcoholic and did have screaming fits. Watch the video fighting back. It's the story of his fight against alcoholism and how he turned his life around. Fascinating video he was an incredible man. It will make you love Mo more.

[@katie-didellis2437]

@@m_christine1070 sorry I was editing my response and I hit the wrong button. I have one other piece of information. The Bee Gees did sue Robert Stigwood and their record label, I think it was Atlantic at the time, for unpaid royalties. It was settled out of court and apologies between the two parties occurred. It must have been amicable for both parties because the brothers held Stigwood in very high regard. In fact Barry thought the world of him and wrote a song for him, I forgot which one.
