You celebrate a man who made a vow to God to be celibate and who broke that vow.
That’s exactly what Martin Luther did!
Both stunning examples of protestantism - break your vow to God and become a hero.

Jesus spoke of celibacy (Matt 19:12) for the kingdom of heaven, and that is one part of the reason for celibate men in the priesthood. Another reason is that a family commitment distracts the priest from his parishioners. There have been a number of men who left the priesthood to marry, true enough. But if a priest has problems with Church teaching, that is a different matter entirely, and it is better for such men to leave the priesthood than stay and promote division and heresy.

I’m shocked: another thread about celibacy.
