Flocking to the comments section his fans expressed their disbelief at Missy’s age as they said: ‘Wow she’s gorgeous and grown up so fast’,
‘Can’t quite believe how grown up you are now!’,
‘Wow! Never knew you had a kid that age.’
It comes after at the end of last year Gareth was spotted enjoying a sweet family day out at Winter Wonderland with his rarely-seen daughter Missy and new girlfriend Allana Taylor.
The former Pop Idol winner had recently introduced his daughter and new West End performer girlfriend.
And looking happier than ever, Gareth appeared to have a wonderful time with Allana and Missy at London’s Hyde Park.
The trio couldn’t wipe the smile off their faces as they went around the festive amusement park.
Gareth and Allana, who went public with their romance over the summer, looked more than loved-up as they shared a sweet kiss together.

It came after a source told the Sunday Mirror: ‘Things are getting really serious in their relationship – Gareth would never introduce Missy to anyone he was not serious about.
‘He’s told pals lately Allana is his rock. It was lovely to see them all getting on so well and having a great time.’
Gareth shares Missy with ex-wife Suzanne with the former couple being together for 10 years before their split.
Suzanne is an actress and dancer who has appeared in shows such as Emmerdale, Heartbeat, and The Royal.
Following their split, the Bradford-born star 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.’

He only occasionally shared pictures of her on social media.
In 2019 he wrote online as he posted a rare photo: ‘I rarely share pictures of my daughter. I never like exposing too much of her, I think it should be her choice when she’s a little older.
‘BUT – I had to share this. I can’t believe how beautiful she is.
‘I love you Missy moo. You’re my world. #nofilter #daddydaughter.’
