Next up, we have the talented and iconic frontman of Take That, Gary Barlow. While his music has always been the talk of the town, it's his son who has been making headlines recently for his impressive stature. Gary, who is known for being private about his personal life, surprised fans with a rare glimpse into his family dynamics through a recent post that quickly went viral.
At 24 years old, Gary's son Daniel stands at an impressive 6'2", towering over his dad who is a modest 5'7". This noticeable height difference sparked countless memes and jokes on social media, with fans in awe of Daniel's stature. And now, a resurfaced video from 2019 of Gary and Daniel working out in their garden has once again brought attention to their size difference.
In the post, Gary playfully jokes about the "size gap" between him and his son, writing, "Don't look at the difference in weights. Don't notice that I'm standing a little further forward to make the gap smaller. Lol." The video was posted to celebrate Daniel's accomplishment of completing an Ironman competition, an incredible physical feat that Gary couldn't be prouder of.
But this isn't the first time that the Barlow family's height difference has caused a stir online. It all started when Gary shared a photo of himself, Daniel, and his youngest daughter Daisy during a family holiday. The wholesome snap, posted on Father's Day, showed the family smiling in their summery outfits. In his caption, Gary joked about the rare occasion of posting a family photo, saying, "Father's Day is the one day I think I'm allowed to post pics of the fam, hey???"
While the meme about Gary and his "massive son" only gained traction recently, the post was actually from June. It seems that people needed a lighthearted distraction from the stress of the recent US election, and the Barlows' height difference provided just that. Many took to social media to share their own humorous takes on the situation, using the meme to bring some much-needed laughter to their timelines.
But behind the memes and jokes, there is also a heartwarming story of a father's pride for his son. Despite his own fame, Gary's son Daniel has chosen to pursue a different path and is currently studying medicine. Gary also shared that his other children, Emily and Daisy, have also chosen different career paths. While he and his wife are not sure what Daisy will pursue, they are proud of their children's academic achievements.
In an interview with The Mirror, Gary opened up about his children and their career choices. "The two oldest ones have kind of gone into medicine and physiology - studying strength and conditioning - and my youngest one, Daisy, I'm not too sure what she's heading for but again, she's very studious... unlike me and my wife," he shared. While he doesn't think his children will follow in his musical footsteps, he wouldn't discourage them if they did, as it has been a successful career for him.
Gary and his wife Dawn Andrews, who tied the knot in 2000, welcomed their first child Daniel later that year. And now, over two decades later, their children are all grown up and pursuing their own passions. Despite being in the spotlight himself, Gary is proud of his children's achievements and is grateful for the fulfilling career he has in the music industry. As he says, "Every day I still enjoy what I do and when you realize you're making a living from it, it's a great, great place to be."
