While Liam Gallagher has endured a fractured relationship with his brother Noel, he's also had a rocky bond with his children thanks to his complicated dating history.
The Oasis star, who has announced a reunion tour 15 years after the band's shock split, is a father of four children - each with different mothers. The 51-year-old shares eldest son Lennon, now 25, with his first wife Patsy Kensit.
He was born in 1999 and a year later, the couple split. He is now believed to be a high-fashion model, having featured in Vogue, and a singer. Gene Gallagher, now 24, is the son of his second wife Nicole Appleton, who Liam split from in 2014. Following in his father's footsteps, Gene is now the frontman of indie band Villanelle.

Then came Gemma Gallagher, who Liam shares with Liza Ghorbani, a New York Times journalist he had a fling with in 2013, whilst still with Appleton. Liam's first daughter and eldest child, Molly Moorish, was born in 1998 as a result of a relationship he had with her mother Lisa Moorish, also a singer, whilst still married to Kensit.
The dad and daughter were estranged for 20 years until they met for the first time in 2018. Liam also revealed he had never met Gemma, telling the Mirror he had "not met the one in New York either."
Speaking to us about Molly, he said previously: "I've just never got around to meeting her. I've heard she's all right, though. She's doing all right. I never heard anything that she wanted to meet me."
He continued: "Not met the one in New York either. But I wish them well. If they ever need anything, give us a shout." He also claimed in a sit-down chat with GQ magazine that the estrangement was down to not getting along with Molly's mother.
"The kid I haven't seen. But if I met her, she'd be cool. She's welcome in my world, without a doubt, but I just ain't met her, because her mam's . . . listen, we don't work. We don't get on. [I've] Got no problem with the girl whatsoever.

"I bought them a house and all that tack. I just think she's best off with her mum. If it happens, it happens. Certainly, wouldn't turn her away. Let it be." When asked if he was open to meeting, he responded: "Open to everything".
"They aren't good when they are forced, these things," he added. "I think we leave it be. See what happens. Certainly [I] wouldn't turn her away." He revealed that Molly hadn't contacted him either.
Following the Manchester Arena bombing in 2018, he encouraged Noel publicly on social media to show up to the charity concert together as brothers. And Lisa jumped to Noel's defence with a savage tweet.
Writing on X, formerly Twitter, she wrote: "Maybe he's too busy looking after his kids and the daughter you've never met! As you were x LM." The tweet has since been deleted.
Liam does however have a good relationship with Lennon, who he had with Patsy, and Gene who he had with Nicole. He was united with the three children in May 2018, when they met backstage at the London Stadium on Tuesday, where Gallagher was supporting the Rolling Stones.
The beaming star revealed a photo of himself with the three kids, with Molly in the middle. The 26-year-old model, who reposted the photo of her dad and siblings, now even uses the name Moorish-Gallagher on her Instagram account.
The snap sent fans into a frenzy, with many congratulating the pair for coming together. One wrote on X: "It makes me so happy see you all together." The three elder children have also been papped at events together, including in 2021 at Superdry's new flagship store on Oxford Street, where they partied alongside Brooklyn Beckham.
