Its all going on!! "hid" the fact he was gay? Sorry but he never fooled me! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.12.186.119 (talk • contribs) 21:18, 3 January 2007.

Yeah, the only more obvious case I can think of is the gay one from S Club 7Lilyfan87 13:13, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Place of birth

The article lists his place of birth as Llwynypia, however the recent Sun article,[1] refers to him as being from Cwmparc. The two places are about 4 miles apart, Llwynypia being rather the larger; Cwmparc appears to be a village of barely more than a few streets. Can anyone confirm that the article as it stands is correct, or does it need changing? Or is this a case of one being the place of birth, and one the place of residence?

His biography page on his website says he grew up in Llwynypia, but doesn't say where he was born.--NeilEvans 23:32, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Technically he would have been born in Llwynypia as it is the local hospital for all people in the Rhondda Valleys, but he would have grown up in Cwmparc. [[[User:144.124.16.28|144.124.16.28]] 15:00, 16 January 2007 (UTC)]
