I’m glad that you’re happy vs I’m happy that you’re happy

Both phrases are correct, but they convey slightly different meanings. 'I'm glad that you're happy' implies that the speaker is pleased that the other person is happy. On the other hand, 'I'm happy that you're happy' directly expresses the speaker's own happiness at the other person's happiness.
