'Baby, I'm so proud of you!' Gareth Gates performs an impromptu rap in celebration of girlfriend Faye Brookes' NTA win as they relax in bed together
On Wednesday night, he was on hand to support his girlfriend Faye Brookes, as she scooped the Best Newcomer trophy at the National Television Awards.
And Gareth Gates, 32, was so proud of his Coronation Street star belle's momentous win that he took to Twitter to perform a freestyle rap later that night.
Lying in pristine white bed linen next to Faye as she clutched her gleaming trophy, he began by saying: 'Yo, this is my lady Faye, and she is the winner of the NTA. She won best newcomer, walking down the carpet yo, she looked like a stunner.'

Turning to Faye as she bashfully covered her face, the erstwhile Pop Idol finalist assured: 'No baby, you really did... You were something special.
'I have no makeup on right now,' protested 29-year-old Faye, who portrays Kate Connor on Corrie, 'I'm going to sleep.'
'Well, I have plenty of makeup on, so don't worry about it,' responded Gareth, who garnered much attention at the awards show thanks to his heavy dose of fake tan.

Showing off his rhyming skills, he stated to the camera: 'She'd like to thank you for your votes. She's really, really thankful, totes. But it's time to say goodnight. We've had a few drinks, I think it's time to turn out the lights.
'Because she's up in the morning, she's back on the cobbles. It's time that we got snoring.'
He added: 'Baby, I'm so proud of you, and I know millions of people out there are proud of you. You smashed it tonight.'

Peering down at the trophy, Gareth playfully said: 'I'm not too happy that it's basically taken my place.'
Brunette beauty Faye was heard whispering to her beau: 'You're actually not staying there. You're gonna sleep on the sofa.'
The clip ended with Gareth bidding his followers a good night, as he feigned tears.
At the awards show, he looked almost unrecognisable as he hit the O2 Arena's red carpet sporting a notably deep fake tan, giving him an unflattering terracotta tone.

While he looked dapper in his ensemble - consisting of a smart black tuxedo with cropped trousers and patent slip-ons - it was hard to miss his glow.
Hours before hitting the red carpet, Gareth took to Twitter to declare that his was attending to support his girlfriend, who was among the several dozen nominees.
Looking a tad more natural in tone, actress Faye stepped out in a two-piece ensemble, which featured a sleeveless black crop top with gold patterning.

The semi-sheer skirt, which was identical in print design, featured a sweeping train, which Gareth was seen adjusting as she posed for photographers and fans.
Back in August , Gareth looked barely recognisable from his days as a fresh-faced budding stars of better reasons, when he showed off his muscles during a romantic getaway to Greece.
Posting a series of Instagram snaps from his stay on the island of Mykonos, Gareth looked vastly different to the shy, skinny teen who overcame a debilitating stutter and became a popular Pop Idol finalist.

Looking tanned and toned, his toned pectorals and defined six-pack were on display as he let his hair down on the popular Greek resort with his girlfriend.
In the first of two shots Gareth sported a jaunty baseball cap, black shorts and a model pout as he stood alongside the brunette, who wrapped an arm across his shoulders.
A second image captured the couple cheek-to-cheek while they relaxed close to a series of outdoor tables, where fellow holidaymakers were seen enjoying an al-fresco lunch.
Girlfriend Faye later shared a short video of the singer showing off some dubious dance moves alongside a male pal.

Gareth recently revealed that he's aiming for a career change as a clean-eating entrepreneur - despite having previously enjoyed four number one singles and several roles in musical-theatre.
As a part of his effort, the Bradford-born star has launched his own range of coconut teas.
He came up with the idea in 2014 after having an operation on his vocal cords - something he described as 'hell' and 'the hardest thing' he has ever gone through.
'I was overworked and partying too much,' he told FEMAIL in June. 'As a result of that I had an operation on my vocal cords and while I was resting at home I replaced alcohol for herbal tea and got really into the idea of clean living.

Side by side: One image captured the couple cheek-to-cheek while they relaxed in the sun
'I go to the gym a lot, my diet's very good and I don't eat rubbish food. I saw that coconut was huge - from coconut water to oil - and the health benefits are incredible. So then I saw a space in the market for a hot coconut brew.
He added: 'I literally sat on my kitchen table at home putting ground coconut into teabags and trying it out with water and it was great.
'I then worked with a food development company to enhance the flavours.'
How it was: Gareth was introduced to Britons as a shy, skinny teen, who overcame a debilitating stutter and sang his way to the Pop Idol finale in 2002
So different: Gareth has undergone an image overhaul over recent months. He's now looking to do the same thing with his career by becoming a clean-eating entrepreneur
