Take That star Mark Owen's nepo baby daughter follows in his showbiz footsteps as she launches major venture
Mark Owen 's nepo baby daughter Willow is following in his showbiz footsteps as she has launched her very own singing career.
The Take That singer, 53, shares three children - daughters Willow, 16, and Fox, 12, and son Elwood, 18 - with his actress wife Emma Ferguson, who he married in 2009.
And Willow has proven she has inherited her father's singing talents as she has released a handful of tracks to music-hosting website SoundCloud.
She has released a string of original demos over the past six months, with her most recent song Back To Me Now racking up 2,130 views on the platform in just days.
Willow also promoted one of her songs on her TikTok page, where she has already racked up an impressive 55,500 followers.
While it is not known if she has officially launched a singing career formally, her ethereal vocals and songwriting skills have already won over legions of fans online.

Doting father Mark recently shared a link to Willow's latest song Back To Me Now on his Instagram page as he shared his pride over her latest venture.
It is not the first time that Willow has shown on her singing skills as she and her younger sister Fox both featured on Mark's 2022 solo album Land Of Dreams.
Mark told The Sun of his children's talents at the time: 'They are into all their own music but actually they're aware and interested in this, which is nice.
'The girls are singing on the record, doing backing vocals with two girls who have been performing with Foo Fighters, so that was exciting and a nice experience for them.'
MailOnline has contacted Mark's representatives for comment.
Mark and his family were hit by a difficult time earlier this year as they were among the celebrities caught up in the devastating LA wildfires.
The singer and his family were forced to flee their LA home after the wildfire tore through the ritzy enclave of Pacific Palisades.
At the time, Mark's wife Emma hit back at those who branded the wildfires a celebrity crisis as she urged people to remember that many other people had lost everything.
In a passionate speech, she exclaimed: 'I don't give a s**t about my house, I just want Joyce [her neighbour] to be OK.
'I have got everything I want. I have got my kids, my husband and my animals. I don't care about the rest. Take it.
'I just want Joyce and all the other people who stayed to fight for everything they have to be ok.'
Admitting she doesn't wish to cause offence, she continued: 'I hate that this has been publicised as "celebrity houses" and "most expensive houses" and "tinsel town torches".
'No. That is like 5% of California. The major foundation of California is the workers. They are the real belly of LA and they are the people that have nothing left.
'They have no insurance, nowhere to escape too, rescue shelters are overrun.
'I don't want you thinking "Oh it is LA they are all rich they will all be fine," no, there are thousands of people that are not ok.'
Emma added: 'I don't want everyone to attack me or to word this in the wrong way. I hope I don't offend anyone but I want you to know that I don't like the way it has been represented.
'This is not just about rich and famous celebs. Who gives a f*****g s**t? It is about real people.'
Mark moved to America permanently after selling his sprawling Hampshire home for £6.5million back in August 2021.
The singer had been living in California with wife Emma and their three children for the past few years, but previously retained a base in the UK with the countryside pad.
However, Mark went on to sell the stunning nine-bedroom property for three-times the amount he paid for it back in 2010.

Art-loving Princess Kate dazzles on tour of London's newest tourist attraction
PRINCESS Kate has dazzled during a tour of London's newest attraction. The Princess of Wales, 43, has been shown around V&A East Storehouse after the site opened last month. 3 3 3 The three-storey attraction is situated on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, East London. The Storehouse boasts half a million exhibits and archives from the V&A collections on show which are usually tucked away in storerooms accessible to visitors for free. Where possible glass has been removed to get visitors closer to exhibits. During the tour, Kate saw the storeroom in action and meet curators who collect, conserve and display the masterpieces. It comes after the V&A East Storehouse opened in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, East London, on May 31, 2025. It shows off everything from Elton John's costumes and retro football shirts, to vintage Glastonbury memorabilia. It features a huge new David Bowie exhibition, opening in September 2025, with more than 80,000 items from the star's life. Visitors can also see what happens behind the scenes in a museum - why and how they collect objects and how they look after them. This includes a glimpse at conservators preserving items like clothing, paintings and puppets. The purpose-built home includes more than 250,000 objects, 350,000 library books and 1,000 archives from the V&A's collections The Prince and Princess of Wales are celebrating the birth of quadruplet puppies According to the website: 'Because the V&A's collections span 5,000 years of human creativity, the team at Storehouse cares for everything from the pins used to secure a 17th century ruff to a two-storey section of a maisonette flat from the Robin Hood Gardens housing estate, demolished in 2017. 'The sheer scale of Storehouse means it is now possible to see other huge artefacts, including The Kaufmann Office (the only complete Frank Lloyd Wright interior outside of the US) and the spectacular 15th-century gilded wooden ceiling from the now-lost Torrijos Palace in Toledo, Spain.' In a world-first, the centre offers an 'Order an Object experience,' which lets visitors book in advance to see a specific item up close, along with an experienced member of staff. The Storehouse has opened a short walk from where the new V&A East Museum is being built, and which is scheduled to open in 2026. Princess Kate has been busy of late, having officially named HMS Glasgow by smashing a bottle of local Scottish whisky against its hull, late last month. Joined by her husband, Prince William, she uttered the time-honoured words: "I have the pleasure to name this ship HMS Glasgow, may God bless her and all who sail on her'" Then flicked up a small red 'launch' button to conduct the traditional naming ritual at the BAE Systems' shipyard in Scotstoun, on the bank of the River Clyde in Glasgow. A bottle of exclusive single malt whisky made by the nearby Clydeside Distillery smashed into the hull in the maritime tradition. Kate has been the ship's sponsor since 2021 and this was her first naming ceremony for a naval vessel. Each bottle of the whisky sold includes a donation to HMS Glasgow's chosen charity, Place2Be, of which the Princess is patron, and which supports children's mental health in the city. A bagpiper marked the start of the 25-minute ceremony before a P-8 Poseidon Maritime Patrol Aircraft from 120 Squadron at RAF Lossiemouth performed a flypast. Sir Simon Lister, managing director of BAE Systems Naval Ships, and Second Sealord Vice Admiral Sir Martin Connell, gave speeches. Sir Martin Connell thanked the Prince and Princess for their support in reaching the milestone.

Princess of Wales cuts a trendy figure in navy trouser suit as she visits buzzy V&A storehouse in east London
The Princess of Wales undertook her first public engagement of the month today as she highlighted the 'joy' of the creative arts. Kate, 43, was at the new V&A East Storehouse - which opened to the public just two weeks ago - and gives unprecedented free public access to the museum's world-famous collection of more than 600,000 treasures from every creative discipline including fashion, film, visual art, design and performance. The princess cut a trendy figure as she opted to rewear a chic trouser suit by designer Alexander McQueen for the event, along with a white scoop-neck top. She accessorised with a pair of black heels, belt with a heavy gold chain necklace and styled her new bronde hair in loose waves while keeping her makeup light and minimal yet dewy. After she arrived at the buzzy east London venue, she was given a behind-the-scenes tour and learnt about the work that goes into conserving and displaying some of the amazing objects stored, including the largest Picasso work in the world. The gigantic cavas measuring 30m by 40m has spent most of the last 80 years rolled up in storage. The princess' last public engagement was a ship-naming ceremony in Glasgow on May 22, after which she enjoyed the half-term holiday with her children. The entire Wales family will, however, be present at Saturday's iconic Trooping the Colour in London, sources told the Mail. Aides added that the 'cadence' of the princess' public engagements is still as was announced earlier this year, involving a slow and measured return to public life following her cancer diagnosis last year. Happily she announced in January that she is now officially in remission. Created in partnership with young people and inspired by east London's creative heritage, the new V&A East Storehouse - a world first - has been built to ensure the nation's creative works are available to all. Spanning four levels and bigger than 30 basketball courts, Storehouse is a new kind of museum experience giving visitors the chance to see behind the scenes of a working museum, explore why and how objects get collected by museums, find out how they are cared for, and uncover the stories they tell about us and our world. Wherever possible, glass and barriers have been removed, and visitors will be able to get closer to objects than ever before. The Collections Access team have all been recruited from the local area and the Princess got the chance to engage with a new 'Order an Object' service, where anyone can book a free appointment to view an object up close and have a one-on-one session with the a member of the team. A Kensington Palace spokesman said: 'Her Royal Highness' engagement today is all about highlighting the importance of creative opportunity and celebrating the power of creativity to bring us joy.' Her Royal Highness will spend time viewing some of the incredible objects stored, and learn from the access team how engaging with these works can provide creative inspiration for all. Kate is the patron of the Victoria & Albert Museum and has been at many events at the Kensington museum. In 2023, she reopened tthe Young V&A museum in east London after it closed for three years. The mother-of-three - who is the V&A's first ever patron and a keen photographer - was then taken on a tour of the premises by children who were instrumental to the redesign. During the tour, Kate stopped and spoke with students at the nearby Bethnal Green primary school and found herself in the centre of a group hug. Last month, Kate officially named HMS Glasgow by smashing a bottle of local Scottish whisky against its hull. Keeping her look suitably nautical for the outing, the royal sported a navy and white £1,850 coat dress from British brand Suzannah London and a matching statement hat from Philip Treacy, first worn at Trooping the Colour in 2024. As the couple departed, one wellwisher from the crowd couldn't resist telling the princess, 'you're beautiful!' And in an effort not to leave her husband out, they added: 'You too, William!', in footage recorded by local news outlet Clyde News. Clearly amused by the surprise compliment, William, 42, quipped: 'You don't have to say that, don't worry!' The crowd then burst into laughter at his self-deprecating comment, as the couple bid goodbye after a busy afternoon. Earlier, stepping up onto a podium before a crowd of several hundred BAE employees, their families and the 45-strong ship's company, Kate uttered the time-honoured words: 'I have the pleasure to name this ship HMS Glasgow, may God bless her and all who sail on her'. The Princess then flicked up a small red 'launch' button to release a bottle of exclusive single malt whisky made by the nearby Clydeside Distillery. The ceremonial act is said to bring good luck and fortune to the vessel and its crew. The distillery opened its doors in 2017, the same year that the HMS Glasgow build began, marking what is considered the start of two modern icons of Glasgow's maritime heritage. Each bottle of the whisky sold will include a donation to HMS Glasgow's chosen charity, Place2Be, of which the Princess is patron, and which supports children's mental health in the city. The Princess was named sponsor of the 8,000-tonne warship, a state-of-the-art Type 26 anti-submarine frigate, in June 2021 and is said to hold 'a real interest' in the ship 'and in the lives of those who will serve onboard'. A year later, Kate met Royal Navy sailors from HMS Glasgow at Windsor Castle to hear about the ship's progress and their experiences in the Royal Navy.
