Gary Barlow was surrounded by his son Daniel as they watched Chelsea FC take on Brentford from the stands at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Take That singer, 53, kept warm in a green quilted coat which he layered over a smart red sweater and a plaid shirt.

While Daniel, 24, wore a similar white shirt under a cream knit top and black duffle coat as he chatted to his dad while watching the match.

It comes after Gary unknowingly sparked a viral frenzy in October, after a sweet family photo showing his son towering over him sent social media into a meltdown.

The singer tends to keep his personal life out of the spotlight, but the family photo posted to Instagram went viral online when a light-hearted tweet showing it was viewed more than six million times.

He had originally shared the image in June in honor of Father’s Day, noting at the time that it was rare for him to post images of his family.

The snap showed Gary, his son Daniel and youngest daughter Daisy, 15, with his wife of 25 years, Dawn Andrews, during a recent vacation.

In the caption, Gary innocently praised his son for staying out of the spotlight, writing, “Father’s Day is the only day I think I can post family photos, huh?”

Barlow, who over the course of his career has reportedly amassed a huge fortune of £90million, barely reaches his son’s shoulder in the healthy photo.

After the image resurfaced on X earlier this week, a light-hearted tweet featuring him was viewed more than six million times.

Since then, memes have flooded the internet with jokes about Daniel’s height, but in reality, the 24-year-old is just a few centimeters taller than the average Brit.

The average height of a man in the UK is 5’9 and that of a woman is 5’3.

Daniel, who is pursuing a career in medicine, stands an impressive 6’2, but appears taller next to his father, the “short king.”

Celebrity dad Barlow is just a few inches shorter than average, standing at 5’7.

The father-son duo were embraced in the image, posted shortly after Barlow celebrated his son’s achievement in completing the Ironman competition, in which he participated in a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2 mile run.
