While Gwen and Gavin are no longer together after filing for divorce back in 2015, they have made sure their boys, Kingston, Zuma, 12, and Apollo, seven, have maintained a good relationship with both parents. 

Their eldest isn't shy to promote his love for his father and when asked what it's like to have him as a dad during a Q&A on Instagram Stories last summer, he said: "Could not ask for a better dad I love him so much."

Gavin then took a screen grab of the comment and posted it on his own Instagram to display his heartfelt appreciation. "My work here is done," he wrote, accompanied by a love heart emoji.
