Gary Barlow mourns loss of fatherMy thoughts go out to Gary and his family 
| Quote: | The father of Take That singer Gary Barlow has died, forcing the star to pull out of a Children in Need concert launch last Friday.
Barlow grew up in Frodsham, Cheshire, with mum Marjorie, Dad Colin and older brother Ian.
The singer-songwriter dedicated Take That song Nobody Else to his parents.
A spokeswoman for the star said he had suffered a family bereavement and asked that the press allow the family to grieve in private.

Barlow is staging a concert at the Royal Albert Hall to kick off the BBC's Children In Need annual charitable event.
Sir Paul McCartney, Take That, Muse, Lily Allen, Dame Shirley Bassey, Leona Lewis, Dizzee Rascal and Snow Patrol are on the line-up for the show on 12 November.
The show will be broadcast on BBC One in the weekend before the main Children in Need appeal on 20 November. Highlights will be aired on Radio 2 on Thursday, 19 November at 2000.
All proceeds will go to Children in Need. |
