Introduction:
The Bentley Continental GT marked a milestone as the first model launched after Volkswagen acquired Bentley in 1998 and the first to use modern mass-production. It was followed by the Flying Spur, expanding its appeal. For Barry, the Bentley symbolized maturity and reminded him of life’s deeper values. As of 2025, it starts at $36,250.
Next is the Citroën DS Cabriolet (1955–1975), a design icon with aerodynamic styling and disc brakes. For Barry, it became a nostalgic companion, often seen with him in a high-collared ’70s suit. Today, it can range from $170,000–$230,000.
Barry also owns a Lotus Europa (1966–1975), known for its lightweight, mid-engine build. It represents Barry’s bold, creative spirit. On average, it costs $22,289.
Famed for his music career, Barry Gibb also values family. Born in 1946 on the Isle of Man, he formed his first band with his brothers, later becoming the Bee Gees. The group sold over 220 million records. Though he lost all three brothers, Barry honors their legacy through music.
He married Linda Gray in 1970 after meeting her on a music show in 1967. Their love story began instantly and has lasted over five decades. After his brothers’ passing, Barry faced deep grief but Linda helped him move forward. With her support, he returned to music, touring with his son and niece, and released his first solo album in 2016.
Barry credits Linda with keeping him grounded and helping him avoid the struggles that affected his brothers. They later moved with their family to Miami, Florida, where they continue to live a quiet, meaningful life together.
Barry Gibb told the press in 2020 that he enjoys living in Miami as it reminds him of his Australian upbringing. He and his wife, Linda Gray, live in a waterfront mansion there but also maintain a home in England. Together, they have five children—Steven, Ashley, Travis, Michael, and Alexandra—and are proud grandparents to seven.
Their parenting journey began three years after marriage with the birth of Steven and grew to include Alexandra in 1991. Barry once shared that family is the most important part of his life, followed by music. He praised Linda as the family’s strength.
Steven, born in 1973, became a musician, playing with bands like 58 and Black Label Society, and joined his father on the “Mythology Tour” in 2013. He co-wrote Barry’s 2016 album In the Now with his brother Ashley, and has two children with his wife, Gloria Lev.
Ashley, born in 1977, initially focused on tennis but later joined the family’s musical projects, including writing for Guilty Pleasures and In the Now. He is married to Theres Gibb, with whom he has a son, Lucas.
Travis, born in 1981, is a real estate agent in Miami. He is married to Stacy Bash Gibb and they have two children, Ila and Liam. Barry shared in 2013 how much he enjoys being a grandfather after years as a rocker.
Michael, born in 1984, was named after his godfather Michael Jackson and pursued acting instead of music. Alexandra, born in 1991, inspired one of Barry’s most iconic pop culture moments—the Barry Gibb Talk Show parody on SNL. Initially reluctant to participate, Barry joined the sketch after Alexandra’s encouragement, leading to a memorable TV moment.
Though Alexandra keeps a low profile, she accompanied Barry to his 2018 investiture at Buckingham Palace.
In 2024, Barry turned 78 but remains active in music. His 2021 album Greenfields explored country music, a long-time passion, and he appeared in an HBO documentary about his life. Though initially hesitant to be the center of attention, producer Dave Cobb ensured Barry’s vocals were on every track.
Barry now embraces living in the moment, especially after his brother Robin’s death.
