In a move that smacks of desperation, Take That has reformed (sans superstar Robbie Williams, of course) and will tour the UK in spring 2006. This may explain why the band recently released a greatest hits album, Never Forget: The Ultimate Collection, having already put out a complete collection of their hit singles when they split up in 1996.
The members of Take That are Gary Barlow, Jason Orange, Mark Owen and Howard Donald. While Robbie William's post-Take That chart successes are well-documented, the other members have gone up to the plate solo as well, with mixed results. Gary Barlow, originally the one expected to become a star over Robbie, had two #1 singles, "Forever Love" in 1996 and "Love Won't Wait" in 1997, but fizzled thereafter. Mark Owen managed a few top 5 singles, including, most recently, 2003's "Four Minute Warning." The other two have not had chart hits.

I believe he actually left the group before they broke up. I'm not even sure he was still with them when they tried to make it in the U.S. (in 1995).
