Gareth Gates poses with rarely seen daughter Missy, 10, after vowing to keep her off social media
GARETH Gates today posed with his rarely seen daughter Missy, 10, after vowing to keep her off social media.
The singer, 37, has previously spoken about keeping his daughter away from the spotlight, but today couldn't resist sharing an adorable snap.
In the picture the two can be seen posing in the garden.
Young Missy looks pretty dressed all in black, as dad Gareth kissed her on the head.
The Pop Idol star wrote next to the picture: "My ENTIRE world."
He went on: "It’s not often I post photos of my little girl - she’s growing so up fast! Daddy loves you."
Gareth shares Missy with ex-wife Suzanne, and is very careful with what he posts about Missy, after saying he wants her to grow up away from the spotlight.
The former couple were together for ten years but split in 2011.
When they broke up he said in a statement: "Despite our efforts over the past three years to make our marriage work, sadly Suzanne and I have decided to separate.
"Whilst we have grown apart, we love and cherish our wonderful daughter Missy and together we will prioritise her happy upbringing."
Meanwhile, Gareth is now enjoying a new relationship with Chloe McLennan after splitting from his last love Faye Brooks.
