===TV Series===
Glenn and Maggie meet in Season 2 and begin a relationship shortly there after. By the end of the season they have declared their love for one another and committed to a relationship. In Season 3, Glenn proposes to Maggie and from that point onward are considered married (there being no need for a formal ceremony because of the Zombie Apocalypse). They are separated after the fall of the prison in Season 4, but after a long journey and assistance from follow survivors they are reunited near the end of the season. After settling in the Alexandria Safe Zone, Glenn and Maggie reveal that she is pregnant. When complications arise a group tries to transport Maggie to the Hilltop Colony to consult the doctor, at this point they are captured by Negan's Saviors. Negan beats Abraham and Glenn to death with a baseball bat.
==Importance==
Putting little significance on their racial identities was seen as unusual, especially for Glenn's character who is "Conspicuous among other Asian American characters, Glenn’s racial background does not define or justify his presence." Also having an Asian male/White female pairing was seen as important because "in fiction or in real life, Asian men, unlike their female counterparts, seem to have it tough when it comes to dating people outside of their race".

==Controversies==
*Death and aftermath: There were criticisms of how Glenn's death and the aftermath were handled. Glenn's death is shown from Rick's POV instead of Maggie's.sure am glad they made glenns death all about Rick Maggie's grief, anger and processing of Glenn's death were given minimal screen time in Season 7, when many thought "This season should be about Maggie. She should be the chief protagonist, fully invested in seeking vengeance on Negan for brutally murdering her husband." The 10 Biggest Problems With Season 7 Of 'The Walking Dead' 
*Lack of diversity: The show was accused of only having room for one interracial relationship, killing off two interracial couples, Glenn/Maggie and Sasha Williams/Abraham Ford, in favor of Richonne. Is There Only Room for One Interracial Relationship at a Time on The Walking Dead?
