However, following the announcement, Gary joked that Dawn wasn’t keen on the idea.
Asked by a fan what she thought of his plans, he replied on Twitter: “She said ‘not that again!'”
The loved-up pair seem to enjoy teasing each other with a bit of banter.

Two years later, Dawn gave birth to their first daughter, Emily.
Daisy was then born in 2009.
The couple were expecting a fourth child in 2012, a girl named Poppy, but unfortunately, Gary announced that the tot had been born stillborn in August that year.
In a statement on behalf of the family, Gary said: “Dawn and I are devastated to announce that we’ve lost our baby. Poppy Barlow was delivered stillborn on August 4 in London.
“Our focus now is giving her a beautiful funeral and loving our three children with all our hearts. We’d ask at this painful time that our privacy be respected.”
In September 2018, he shared extracts of his forthcoming autobiography where he spoke about his grief for the first time.
He wrote in A Better Me: “After Poppy died, people wrote to me about suffering the same awful experience. Many had kept so much of it locked away in secret.
“I’ve wondered about the value and purpose in sharing something so private, but I’d have been denying Poppy her legacy not to. Maybe sharing our story will help others talk about theirs.”
