Take That’s Howard sells off his campervan home for FIVE figure sum saying ‘it saddens me to sell it
TAKE That’s Howard Donald has revealed he is selling off his beloved campervan home for a FIVE figure sum, and said that ‘it saddened” him to part with it.
The singer, 57, owns an impressive car collection, but now is selling off his VW camper – but asked fans: “What am I doing?”
The minted star, who has made his millions from touring and making records with Take That, is now giving fans the opportunity to snap up the luxury motor.
For £50K, Howard‘s loyal followers can buy the campervan from him.
The star shared the news on Instagram with a slew of pics of the cosy looking vehicle.
In one snap, Howard is seen standing next to the campervan, as he got ready to say goodbye to it.
He captioned the pictures with: “FOR SALE!!! VW rare double door 4 berth camper van.
“It saddens me to sell this but I never used it!
“I even look at it now and think what am I doing?!”
Howard’s post got some cheeky comments from his fans, with one writing: “Can you be the driver please?!”
Another said: “Does the model come with the car???”
A third quipped: “I think a few of us Take That fans should put in some cash together and buy it and use it at the venues on tour to queue up!”
This saucy fan added: “Does it come complete with you tied up in the back of it?! If so I’ll sell my house and buy it instantly!”
Howard is well known for his impressive car collection, with his VW camper being just one of the multi-millionaire’s impressive motors.
Among the collection, the singer owns a Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG, which he uses to drive his family, a 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SE Cabriolet, and a 1959 Chevrolet Brookwood.
Howard previously revealed he believes he has around 17 supercars – but that he finds it hard to store them all.
The star told the Fuelling Around podcast in 2023: “It’s come to a point where you’re trying to put them in other people’s garages and you’re thinking, “No, it’s too ridiculous’.”
At the time he said that he was planning to sell some of his cars to pay for his children’s education.
“One day, it’ll come to the crunch where Take That probably will stop eventually, and then you think, ‘I’m going to have to sell one of my cars’,” the star said.
He joked: “I really hate my kids for that, though.”
Howard shot to fame in the early 90s as one of the five original members of Take That.
The Lancashire lad completed the line-up consisting of Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Robbie Williams and Jason Orange.
The band went onto to have huge success with songs like Back For Good, Relight My Fire and Never Forget.
Robbie left the band in 1995, and the rest of the group parted ways the following year.
However, they got back together in the early noughties as a foursome, with Jason parting ways with the group in 2014.
But Howard, Gary and Mark continue to fly the Take That flag and are heading out on tour this summer.
Since January 2015, Howard has been married to illustrator Katie Halil, and they share two kids.
He also has two daughters from two separate relationships.
