Speaking in the past about his blended family, Gary told MailOnline: “You make mistakes along the way. I think the key is to defer to the real parent, but it’s hard… I’ve a feeling that the teenage years will be interesting. But it’s wonderful to be given a daughter.
Gary and Danielle were married from 2009 until 2016
“She has a father, who’s a great guy, and I’m careful to respect that relationship. I think we’re doing OK.”
Gary welcomed his four sons with his first wife Michelle Cockayne, to whom he was married from 1986 to May 2006. Together they share George, 30, Harry, 28, Tobias, 25, and Angus, 24.
Despite being one of the country’s most acclaimed football stars, Gary previously admitted he still struggles to impress his children.

He shared a funny exchange with George on Twitter after his oldest son took to social media with a post that read: “The old man’s just been a question on The Chase, now he’s made it.”
In response, the quick-witted star wrote: “Finally, something that impresses you.”
