Rebbie Jackson and her younger brother, Marlon Jackson have managed to set a record that no other Jackson sibling was able to accomplish- they were the only two to marry and never get a divorce.

Rebbie married her husband, Nathaniel Brown, when she was 18. She is now 65, so they were married for 45 years, up until Nathaniel’s unfortunate passing in January of 2013 from cancer. They have three children together.
