Gary captioned the post: “As Dawn and I approach our 24th Year together (19 married).

“I’m always looking for new ways to feel closer to her. Especially as we spend so much time apart. Now i just have to look down to feel that connection.”

He added: “A good way of remembering how important people are to us is to try and imagine life without them.

“That’s always a good cue to kiss them a little more and tell them you Love them a lot more. If you’re lucky enough to have found Love, protect it. #love.”

Their daughter Poppy was tragically delivered stillborn in 2012, days before Gary was due to perform at the closing ceremony of the London Olympics.

During an appearance on Lorraine in October, Gary opened up about losing Poppy and said his main priority after it happened was being there for his “amazing” wife.

Speaking about the heartbreaking moment they lost their baby daughter, Gary said: “The way I was thinking around Poppy’s death was, I’ve got to look after Dawn.

“It wasn’t about me, it was about her and me stepping up as a husband. When you say you are going to be together and you take those vows, you look after your partner, that’s just what you do.”
