Voices: ‘Gary Barlow’s massive son’ has saved us from Trump misery

An interview with Gary Barlow this week, in which he talked about his children not following him into a showbiz career, meant that X exploded into a blaze of joy that hasn’t been seen on the platform for a long time. Not because users were delighted about the Take That star’s career choices, but because of a photo of the Barlow family together.

In it, 24-year-old Daniel dwarfs the rest of his family. I mean, dwarfs. He’s head and shoulders above his dad, and is thought to be 6’ 2” (1.88m) tall compared to Gary’s more petite 5’ 8” (1.72m), and the height difference really brought out the best in X users, who filled their feeds with photographs of Barlow senior with tremendous captions.
