Gareth Gates has shared a glimpse of his rarely-seen daughter Missy, 10, after promising to keep her away from the spotlight.
The 37-year-old previously vowed he wanted to keep her off social media.
But the singer posted a sweet photo of the pair, with the dad kissing Missy’s head.
He couldn’t resist sharing the adorable picture with his fans after years of not sharing many photos of her.
In the Instagram snap, the two can be seen posing in the garden with dad Gareth showing his fatherly affection.
The Pop Idol star captioned the moment: “My ENTIRE world.”

Gareth also wrote: “It’s not often I post photos of my little girl – she’s growing so up fast! Daddy loves you.”
It’s rare the singer shares photos of his daughter, previously uploading shots in 2018 and 2019.
He shares Missy with ex-wife Suzanne and is careful about what he posts.
He said he wants her to grow up away from the spotlight.

The Pop Idol star was with ex Suzanne for ten years before they parted ways in 2011.
At the time, 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.”

Gareth is now enjoying a new relationship with Chloe McLennan after splitting from Faye Brooks who he broke up with almost two years ago.
The two called time on their love and decided they were better off as friends, writes The Sun.
An Insider claimed the couple have been dating since last April after they met in Ibiza.
The star has undergone a major transformation since his time on the reality show Pop Idol and opened up over the years of gruelling workouts he endured to change his physique.

The star insists women preferred the baby-faced and ‘skinny beanpole’ Gareth they knew back when he shot to fame at the young age of 17, compared to his chiseled look now.
The dad-of-one said: “I definitely got more attention back then. I was a pop star with loads of hits.
“But I think I look better now. It’s taken me six years to get this body. I got into the gym when I was 30 and stopped partying.
“But in the last couple of years I’ve started to take my fitness really seriously.”
