Liam Gallagher’s son Lennon Gallagher has opened up about his childhood, with the model – whose mother is Patsy Kensit – speaking about the aftermath of Oasis’ split
Lennon Gallagher has opened up about a revelation he had after his father Liam Gallagher’s band Oasis split up more than a decade ago. The model’s comments come ahead of Liam and Noel Gallagher launching their reunion tour.
Ahead of the Oasis Live ’25 Tour, Lennon, 25 – whose parents are singer Liam and actor Patsy Kensit – spoke about his childhood in a new interview. It included recalling his dad dressing him and younger brother Gene Gallagher, whose mother is Nicole Appleton, in “mini-mod parkas”.
Lennon said: “I looked f***ing sick when Dad dressed Gene and me in mini-mod parkas for school.” He told the outlet that he “used to try and steal” Liam’s clothes, but went on to share that he “always had more luck” with Patsy’s wardrobe.
As the iconic band gears up for a reunion tour after a 15-year hiatus, Lennon also shared that he didn’t grasp “the scale” of Oasis until they disbanded in 2009. He said: “I don’t think I understood the scale of it all until the band split.”
He recalled people coming up to him at school and realising that the band were “massive”. Lennon told British Vogue: “People would all of a sudden come up to me in the playground and be like, ‘Oh, my God, have you heard about this?’ I just remember thinking, ‘Oh, s***… they were massive.”
Fans will finally see Oasis reunite on stage soon, kicking off this summer with shows at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium. The highly anticipated UK and Ireland tour will then be at Manchester’s Heaton Park, London’s Wembley Stadium, Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin’s Croke Park, over the course of July, August and September.
There was an outrage after tickets for the UK and Ireland gigs went on sale last year, with some prices appearing to have jumped from £148 to £355. The controversy led to the Government and the UK’s competition watchdog pledging to examine the use of dynamic pricing.
The group is set to embark on a world tour that includes stops in Asia, South America, Australia and North America. The shows coincide with a film project helmed by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight, timed with their much-anticipated reunion.
Rocketing to stardom following their signing with Creation Records in 1993, Oasis cemented their place in music history with their debut number one album Definitely Maybe, which dropped on August 29, 1994. The discography includes tracks like Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall, Supersonic and Live Forever.
Noel famously called it quits with the band in August 2009. He reportedly declared at the time that he “simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer”.
