The 46-year-old appeared on the Jonathan Ross show with 15-year-old daughter Megan sitting in the studio audience.
However her pride soon turned to embarrassment, when her father made a little revelation about what he had been up to with her 13-year-old brother Jack.
Speaking to host Jonathan, Gordon admitted:
'Son, here’s twenty quid, go and target your big sister’s room and put in that camera'
‘Megan’s 15, she’s here tonight with her boyfriend.
‘They’ve been spending a lot of time in her room recently. But revising.
‘Revising … They seem to be spending a lot of time revising and yet the results aren’t …
‘I’ve been a bit naughty over the last couple of weeks because I got Jack a little Go-Pro. One of those little secret cameras.’
Speaking of how he paid his son to install the Go-Pro camera in secret, he continued:
‘So I said to him, “Look mate, here’s twenty quid, go and target your big sister’s room and put that camera right at the top left-hand side of the wardrobe”.’
'Megan, I’d like to talk to you about your revising …’
Before jokingly adding: ‘So, Megan, I’d like to talk to you about your revising …’
Gordon, who also has 13-year-old twin daughter Holly and 11-year-old Matilda from his 16 year marriage to 38-year-old Tana, may well come under fire for his controversial parenting technique.
Last year a US college student Aubrey Ireland was granted a civil stalking order against her parents due to their overprotective behaviour that included installing monitoring software on her electronics.
Do you think this is an invasion of privacy? Or do you think Gordon has the right to keep an eye on his teenage daughter? Let us know in the comments box below.
