After two breaks that nobody wants, Gary Barlow’s wife Dawn finally got one that she could enjoy last week – a romantic trip to Venice.

Her Take That husband whisked her off for the two-day getaway after she broke her left wrist just a year after the agony of snapping her right one.

Gary, 52, shared a photo on social media of them enjoying a date night with cocktails on a riverboat, adding the caption: ‘Mrs B looking lovely in Venice.’

But there was no explanation of how she broke the wrist.

Dawn, 53, in a £411 Alexa Chung Fifi dress, and Gary, in a colourful £221 My Sweet Devotion shirt, were joined by their son Daniel, 23, and his girlfriend on the canals. 

Former Take That dancer Dawn held her plastered left arm in a black sling – but when the couple dined at a restaurant later she tried to conceal the injury by keeping the arm under the table.

Earlier this month, former X Factor judge Gary showed a picture of Dawn’s wrist in a cast to his million Instagram followers.

He captioned it: ‘Poor Mrs B has done it again – this time the other wrist – not happy.’

When she snapped her right wrist last summer, he said: ‘Mrs B broke her wrist four weeks ago – on Friday she had a big operation – she’s in a lot of pain but on the mend.’

The Barlows love Italian holidays, with the whole family flying to Tremezzo, on Lake Como, for Dawn’s 50th birthday after lockdown eased in 2020.

She and Gary met in 1995 when she was a back-up dancer on Take That’s Nobody Else tour. 

They married in 2000 and have two other children, Emily, 21, and Daisy, 14.

Their fourth child Poppy was delivered stillborn in 2012 – a few days before he sang at the London Olympics closing ceremony. 

He said later that he had found inspiration in Dawn’s strength as she managed to cope with the tragedy while getting on with raising the other three children.
