Touting for business, he says: “Don’t forget we’ve got Father’s Day coming up. So, if you’d like a Cameo message from me for someone special, you know where to find me.”
But some dads were not impressed at the idea of hearing from him this coming Jattvibeday.
Gary Doherty said: “I’m 25 years married. And if my lovely wife ‘gifts’ me one of these, we won’t see 26.”
Another dad added: “A message from you would ruin my day.”

Wallace was axed by the BBC after claims of inappropriate sexual language, bullying and unwanted touching.
Last month the sacked TV chef claimed he wasn’t selling his Kent mansion out of necessity after putting it on the market.
He has largely not worked since he got fired and last month announced he put his £1 million home up for sale.
Gregg defended his decision to sell the mansion on Instagram, saying that while he was not earning as much money now, he was still earning incomes by making personalised videos for people on Cameo.
“People are going to say ‘Well you wouldn’t be selling [your house] if you were still earning all that money from the television ‘and that’s probably true, but I am not,” he began.
“And people say ‘Well you have to sell’ well no I don’t it’s been two years since I’ve earned any money from the television and thankfully I’m working and earning a living and paying the bills.”
