Gary Barlow's towering son has become an internet sensation, leaving fans in awe of his impressive height. Daniel Barlow, 24, was snapped standing beside his Take That star dad , aged 53, in a photo that has since gone viral. Despite Gary's preference for privacy when it comes to family matters, the rare image showed Daniel's considerable height as he casually drapes his arm over his dad's shoulder, with wife and mum Dawn Andrews by their side.
Social media users were quick to comment on the striking height difference, with one fan exclaiming on social media: "Gary Barlow's massive son is the reason Twitter was made." Another remarked: "Many parents at some point see one or more of their offspring grow up to be taller than them but few can have experienced this so viscerally as." Standing at 6ft 2, Daniel may not be quite as lofty as some believe, especially when compared to Gary's 5ft 7 stature.
Yet, he's not alone in outgrowing a celebrity parent, reports the Mirror . Pierce Brosnan and his son Dylan also showcase a notable height disparity. The former James Bond actor stands tall at 6ft 1, but Dylan, at 27 years old, gazes down from an even loftier 6ft 5, as per IMDb.
Like his father, Dylan is making waves in the entertainment industry, with roles in TV series The Synanon Fix and involvement in films such as the 2023 release Sly and the 2017 documentary Poisoning Paradise. Patsy Kensit's son Lennon Gallagher has similarly stepped into the limelight, inheriting both his mother's charm and a towering presence. EastEnders actress Patsy Kensit, who shares her 25 year old son Lennon with Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher, has been pictured alongside her towering model son.
Despite his parents' more modest statures - Liam at 5ft 10 and Pasty's 5ft 4 - Lennon stands tall at 6ft. Despite Julianne Moore's petite 5ft 3 stature, her children Caleb Moore Freundlich and Liv Helen Moore Freundlich tower over her. Their height is clearly inherited from their father Bart Freundlich, who stands at an impressive 6ft 2.
Violet Affleck, the daughter of Hollywood stars Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, stands at a cool 6ft - taller than her actress mother but four inches shorter than her father. Currently, Violet is keeping a low profile and has just embarked on her first year at Yale. At just 16, Honor has soared past her renowned mother Jessica in height.
The Fantastic Four actress, aged 43 and also a mother to Haven, who turns 13 this August, as well as her youngest, six year old Hayes, shared with People her emotional reaction upon realising her daughter's growth. Jessica recalled the moment, saying: "Okay, so it was during Covid and our friends were over, and it was kind of like they were about to have a baby, and he was like, 'Honor's taller than you' and I was like 'No she's not! ' He was like, 'Yes she is..
. Stand back-to-back,' and he took this photo and I just started crying.".
