The conflict among the former spouses of the Oasis band members, Liam and Noel Gallagher, mirrors the animosity between the brothers themselves. Tensions remain high, with the disputes extending even to their children, who have engaged in public altercations.
Typically, being twice divorced is not something to celebrate, but with Liam and Noel Gallagher set to receive a £50 million payout from their reunion tour, they might find some solace in their past marital splits.
Both brothers have gone through two divorces, and the animosity between their ex-wives has been notable. Noel once mentioned that his first wife, Meg Matthews, and Liam’s then-wife, Patsy Kensit, “hated” each other.
Although their second wives, Nicole Appleton and Sara McDonald, seemed to have a better rapport, tensions still persisted. Sara had a particularly contentious relationship with her brother-in-law, at one point calling him a “fat t**t,” while Liam disparagingly referred to her as “Rose West.”
Sara’s reported disdain for Liam has been suggested as a factor that hindered the Gallagher brothers from reuniting. However, her 2023 divorce from Noel appears to have created a financial incentive for reconciliation.
The divorce was costly, reportedly reducing Noel’s £53 million fortune by £20 million. With such significant tension in the air, it’s unsurprising that the animosity has extended to their children’s relationships. Liam’s sons, Gene and Lennon, have publicly taunted their cousin Anais, Noel’s daughter with Meg Matthews.
Adding to the family dynamics, Liam’s daughter Molly, born from his affair with singer Lisa Moorish, once grew close to Noel and Sara during a period of estrangement from her father. However, after reconciling with Liam, she distanced herself from her uncle and his wife.
This exploration provides insight into how the Gallagher brothers’ feud has reverberated through their ex-wives and children.
