No one knows for sure if you can inherit a stammer, and so I worry that my baby might. It's why I want to work on my speech before he arrives. I don't want him to hear me stammer.

From Gareth Gates

I haven't been the best boyfriend or husband, and that means I don't get to spend every day with my daughter.

From Gareth Gates

I live for my daughter. Every decision I make is about her and for her. It's great. She's perfect.

From Gareth Gates

I was terrible when I first started skating and was clinging onto the side for dear life, but it's something I'll always have now, and the tour is always so much fun.

From Gareth Gates

I'm very driven, and I always have been. So I'd like to release a successful album, continue in musical theatre, and be more involved in business.

From Gareth Gates

Musical theatre is something that I always wanted to be a part of, and my first ever role on the West End as Joseph in 'Joseph And The Technicolor Dreamcoat' gave me a taste for it.

From Gareth Gates

I love musical theatre because I love doing a live performance eight times a week.

From Gareth Gates

In the music business, I found it was much more about interviews, photo shoots and appearances rather than actual performing, which I do best.

From Gareth Gates

My speech is really important to me, but the thing is at the moment it can't be more important than my singing. Until I'm an established name all over the world, my speech won't be more important than my music.

From Gareth Gates

Before all this happened, I always used to see my stammer as being a negative, all my life, but then when I went on 'Pop Idol,' and the first time I saw it on television, it was really, really bad, but also it made me stand out; it made people remember me. So for the first time in my life, it worked to my advantage.
