Gareth Gates you are a beautiful human being inside and out. You should be extremely proud of yourself. I bet the bullies from your past haven't done nearly as well as you. Xx😊

I went to school with Gareth and was a year above him at the ctc. I can remember one time our class and myself being utterly awful (like 13 14 years old) it's been nearly 30 years and I still cringe and feel awful for this. Sorry Gareth, genuinely happy for your journey through life.

i too was bullied at school , and i wish my bullies had said sorry to me , one of my biggest bullies was a teacher who caused me to try to take my own life as i feared going to school as i never knew when she would creep up behind me and and assault me , after years of this i wanted to die so i didnt have to go to school , as i never saw her coming creeping up behind me , i never got a sorry from her i know i never will , but i have so much respect for you being brave to admit you was a bully and say your sorry online to Gareth , im sure hes likely seen your message and forgiven you , but maybe you could write a letter to him personally too and explain why you bullied him ? im sure you wasnt happy yourself at the time ? i admire you so much for being so brave to admit this , i think writing him a letter will help him so much and help you to , xx

This is strong. Say this to him personally please, you will give him a great chance and yourself, too! Thanks!

It’s great that you feel remorseful for what you done to him and are apologising but no amount of apologies can make the mental scars from bulling go away. This man will be affected by this his whole life.

I had a stammer and people did the same to me at school. Reach out in apology to him, towards making amends for him, but not to make yourself feel better.

I went to CTC also and I was in the same class as his sister Nicola Gates 😊

I've struggled with a stammer all my life and this made me cry, bringing back all the memories of childhood. Thank you, Gareth

Full of admiration for this (very handsome) guy. You were fantastic all the way through SAS. So glad you won and well deserved.

Total admiration to you Gareth the bullys were the weak ones not you x they failed ...not you. wishing you the best and well done .

Wow. That moment of vulnerability was beautiful and resonant. I think a lot of people can relate to being bullied and ostracized as kids (hand up) and then carrying it with them as negative emotion for years. I really appreciated the respect and patience that the DS showed him during the conversation.

wow Gareth gates have changed since the shy boy he was when i first saw him on Xfactor or BGT ? hes a very handsome guy , hes looking even better with age , i think he needs therapy to help him with his past and self-esteem to move on in life , (please Gareth work on your self esteem , life is so short , and you need to enjoy your life to the full , love yourself for who you are , never be ashamed , your beautiful just the way you are , x

Well, Gareth was just 17 years old when he was on Pop Idol, and now he’s 39.

The psychological effects of severe bullying can last a lifetime, and the pain never fully goes away for people like Gareth. Poor guy clearly has some PTSD from the bullying he received in school for his stammer/stutter. It’s almost as if he’s been transported back into his childhood self, again.

Absolute Admiration Garath 👏🏻💜

Sings like an angel, talks like Tyson Fury.

Dude looks like a young Burt Reynolds, fair doos, he smashed it

Speaking voices are also kinda similar (minus the accents of course).

It could happen to anyone of us

Well done Gareth .. f..k the bullys.

Practically everyone gets bullied in School, mine was a horrid experience & I get very emotional regarding this too but I put my big girl pants on & dealt with it. It’s a shame that he still needs healing, such a nice boy. All the best Gareth 😘

Gareth Gate is still as sexy as when he was on America's got Talent years ago ❤

I too struggled with stuttering, but a book I’ve found earlier this year, Stop Stuttering Short Course: How to Break the Stuttering Code by Lee Lovett helped me immensely. His books and WSSA program will truly help for those who are committed to overcoming it.
