Looking downbeat, Gareth sang: “I won’t give up on us, even if the skies get rough. I’m giving you all my love, I’m still looking up.”

One even said the emotional video had made her cry.


Others referenced the fact that Gareth and Faye had an on/off relationship, with the pair splitting before reuniting and getting engaged.
