Marking the occasion on Instagram, Gary, 53, opted to share a handful of loved-up Polaroid images that showed the 'Back for Good' hitmaker sweetly posing with his wife. Elsewhere, he included a glamorous picture of Dawn rocking a chic black dress complete with slashed sleeves.

She had her platinum blonde locks styled into Hollywood-esque waves and wore a slick of ruby red lipstick for added glitz.

In a heartfelt message, Gary wrote in his caption: "The achievement of being married for 25 years is not the days, weeks or years - it's the people you're surrounded by #family #friends #love."

The father-of-three's touching post prompted an outpouring of messages in the comments section. "This is beautiful [red heart emoji] Happy anniversary to you both," wrote one follower, while a second chimed in: "Aaaw love this Gary. How wonderful. Congratulations. Happy anniversary to you both," and a third added: "Dawn is a keeper and your children are incredible! Congratulations on 25 years. Cheers to another 25 years!"

Despite his career in the spotlight, Gary keeps much of his family life and relationship under wraps. Speaking about his decision to keep his love life out of the limelight, the singer told MailOnline in 2019: "We had to keep it quiet because none of the lads were allowed to officially have girlfriends in those days.

"Dawn hates attention, so it was a big deal for her to date someone like me."

While Gary rarely shares personal insights, he did heap praise on Dawn during an appearance on The Imperfects podcast. "She's really special, really special," he gushed.

"She's a no-nonsense mum. She brought our kids up, I didn't. I do this job which is bloody all encompassing, I travel all round the world, [and] she gave up her job to bring our kids up."
