Gary Barlow, the well-known member of the popular boyband Take That, is also a proud father to two children. In a recent interview, Gary shared that his kids have chosen different career paths, straying away from the spotlight and focusing on their academic pursuits instead. While Gary usually keeps his family life private, he couldn't help but give an update on his children.
At the age of 53, the music icon is a father to three children - Daniel, Emily, and Daisy. Daniel, at 24 years old, has chosen to pursue medicine and physiology, while 22-year-old Emily is studying strength and conditioning. As for their youngest, 15-year-old Daisy is still unsure of her future plans. Gary humorously shared, "She's very studious, unlike me and my wife."
When asked if his children will follow in his musical footsteps, Gary revealed, "I don't think they will, but I wouldn't have discouraged them if they wanted to. Music has been a good business for me, and I still enjoy what I do every day." He also acknowledged that there are many challenges in the entertainment industry and feels grateful for his own experiences.
Gary's wife, Dawn Andrews, and him tied the knot in 2000, welcoming their first child, Andrew, in the same year. Despite being in the public eye, Gary prefers to keep his family life away from the spotlight. He rarely shares pictures of his children on social media, but in 2022, he proudly posted a picture with his son, celebrating his impressive sporting achievement.
In a separate post, Gary expressed his love for spending quality time with his kids, sharing a video of him and Daniel working out together. He joked about their height difference and praised his son's commitment to fitness.
Gary and Dawn welcomed their second child, Emily, in 2002, and their youngest, Daisy, in 2009. Recently, Gary revealed that Dawn couldn't join him on his world tour with Take That because she wanted to support Daisy through her schooling at home. He also mentioned that the band's stint in Australia would allow him to see Emily, who currently lives there, which he described as a "treat."
Sadly, in 2012, the couple announced the loss of their fourth child, Poppy, who was stillborn. Gary shared in a statement, "Dawn and I are devastated to announce that we've lost our baby." He also requested privacy during this difficult time.
In a recent interview, Gary opened up about their tragic loss and how it still affects him. He shared that he is still trying to come to terms with it and that his wife handles it better than he does. He also revealed that their eldest two children still talk about it frequently.
Gary and Dawn support the Sands UK charity, which works towards reducing the number of stillbirths and neonatal deaths. The charity provides bereavement support at a local and national level and aims to raise awareness about issues surrounding baby loss.
