Singer-songwriter Gary Barlow was spotted at a football match alongside his son Daniel Barlow over the weekend following a family photo of them going viral just weeks ago.
Gary, 53, and Daniel, 24, were among the crowd at Stamford Bridge on Sunday for the Premier League match between Chelsea F.C. and Brentford F.C., which was won by the former team. The pair were seen at the stadium in London.
Photos from the football match show Gary wearing a striped shirt underneath a red jumper. The Take That member – who has long been known to be a supporter of Liverpool F.C. – wrapped up to watch the game from the stands in a padded green coat. Daniel instead wore a similar checkered shirt underneath an off-white jumper and a black coat.
The father and son are seen looking towards the pitch from their spot in the crowd in one photo from the match. Whilst the other shows Daniel, who seems to tower over his father, smiling as Gary appears to make a comment.
It comes just weeks after a photo of Gary and his family went viral on social media last month. The photo showed the Brit Award winner stood beside his wife Dawn Barlow, 54, and two of their children, including Daniel.

The photo was said to have originally been posted by Gary to mark Father’s Day last year but attracted attention recently over the height difference between the singer and his son. Gary barely reaches his son’s shoulders in the photo, which has amassed millions of views on X, formerly known as Twitter, alone.
As previously reported, it’s thought that Daniel is 6ft 2in tall, whilst Gary is believed to be around 5ft 8in tall. The photo prompted much reaction at the time and led to articles about other stars whose children tower over them.

Last month, Gary spoke to the Mirror about his family, including suggesting that Daniel and his siblings likely wouldn’t follow in their father’s footsteps by becoming musicians. He said: “The two oldest ones [Daniel and Emily] 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 continued: “I don’t think they will follow in my music footsteps but I wouldn’t have discouraged them though if they did want to, it’s been a good business for me. Every day I still enjoy what I do and when you realise you’re making a living from it, it’s a great, great place to be. Many roles in ‘showbiz’ are just wonderful, there’s definitely a much harder world out there than the one I’m in I think.”
