Gareth Gates and his wife Suzanne have announced their separation.
The singer and actor posted a statement to his official website, which read: "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."
Gates was the recent subject of tabloid rumours which alleged he had begun an affair with his Legally Blonde co-star Faye Brooks.
