Gaz reveals the lengths Emma McVey goes to for the perfect selfie

When it comes to taking the perfect selfie, there's more to it than just the perfect pose.

Someone who understands the mechanics of a killer selfie is former Geordie Shore star Gary Beadle. Yes, the reality star and his pregnant girlfriend Emma McVey are known to share a selfie (or 10) a week but they’ve now revealed it’s a lot harder than it looks. Taking to Instagram yesterday, Gary gave fans a sneak peek behind-the-scenes of his girlfriend's photo shoot, saying:

“The shit you do so the Mrs can get a good picture.”

The video shows the Geordie star multitasking with a ring light while holding the couple’s dog as Emma strikes a series of poses, and the whole process looks like a lot of work. However, Gary made sure to get his own selfie out of it all, sharing a picture on Instagram making use of the ring light. Emma is currently pregnant with the couple's first child and is due to give birth this month. Gaz's new role as a father led to his decision to leave Geordie Shore after 15 seasons.
