Gary Barlow’s Wikipedia page hijacked to include ‘giant’ son after social media storm

Gary Barlow’s Wikipedia page has already been hijacked after his son became an internet sensation.

The Take That star had shared a photo with his family, showing Gary, wife Dawn Andrews, son Daniel and one of his daughters. But Daniel was a lot taller than the rest of his family.

Since, the internet has been alight with memes and people joking about how tall the 24-year-old is – especially compared to his miniature dad. Now, Gary’s Wikipedia page has been changed to give Daniel a shout-out.

In the basic information side panel, somebody has altered it to read: “Children: 3 (1 Giant).” It likely won’t last too long as other people rush to correct it.

But it hasn’t stopped fans sharing a grab of it online. “Obsessed with Gary Barlow’s Wikipedia page,” one person said.

Another wrote: “Gary Barlow’s son is recognised as a giant on Wikipedia.” Meanwhile, others just laughed about it.

In reality, Daniel isn’t quite as tall as he appears, standing at 6ft2. The average man in the UK is 5ft9, meaning Daniel is five inches taller.

However, the reason he looks like a skyscraper compared to his dad is Gary is 5ft7, meaning he measures up less than average.

Daniel and his siblings live their lives out of the public eye. While Gary is touring the world as part of Take That, his kids have much more down-to-earth lives.

Former X Factor judge Gary previously told The Mirror: “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.”

Gary and his wife Dawn share three children together – Daniel, 24, Emily, 22, and Daisy, 15. They also had daughter Poppy, who they tragically lost as a stillbirth in 2012.
