As a long-time admirer of the Gallagher brothers and their music, I must say that Paul’s decision to remain “invisible” from media attention while still being a constant presence for his brothers is truly commendable. His humility and selflessness are rare qualities in the world of rock ‘n’ roll.


The three Gallagher brothers all ‘can’t swim‘, according to youngest sibling Liam.

Back in 2017, a re-emerged video showed Liam, aged 51 at the time, confessing that neither he, Noel (who was 57), nor Paul (also 58) had ever learned to swim during their stint on Celebrity Gogglebox.

Liam confessed that, just like a salmon, he panics when swimming in deeper waters, as all three of his brothers find it difficult to swim submerged.

Seven years back, the renowned rock figure graced the screen on Celebrity Gogglebox, sharing the couch with his mother Peggy and his 23-year-old musical prodigy, Gene.

Liam said: ‘You’re [Peggy] the only one out of us lot that can swim.

‘I can swim’, Gene interjected.

Liam said: ‘Yeah you can swim, but me Noel and Paul can’t swim’.

Gene mentioned, “I’ve observed you swimming before, but it seems like you have trouble coming up for air; instead, you tend to submerge beneath the water.

He said: ‘I can do half a width. I’m jealous man, I wish I could swim. I struggle when it goes deeper and that. 

That’s the point where I begin to thrash about wildly, similar to a frantic salmon swimming upstream. As soon as it gets deeper, I start moving around restlessly.

‘I’d struggle having a shower’, he quipped.

Besides Gene, Liam also has a son named Lennon, who is 24 years old and was born to his former wife Patsy Kensit. Additionally, he shares a daughter Molly, aged 26, with someone else. Nicole Appleton is Liam’s mother, and she is 49 years old.

Liam and Patsy parted ways not long afterwards due to the fact that Liam was involved romantically with Lisa Moorish, who had their child, Molly, in 1998.

In contrast to his well-known siblings, London-residing DJ and photographer Paul, who has the ability to sing but chooses not to use that talent, instead opting for it, prefers a modest lifestyle. He tends to keep a low profile and avoid media spotlight.

Despite a 15-year long, acrimonious rift between Liam and Noel, Paul managed to maintain a strong bond with both parties. Furthermore, there are whispers that he will serve as the best man at Liam’s forthcoming wedding.

According to the Mirror, Paul disclosed in his 1997 book “Brothers: Childhood to Oasis,” that his brothers initially were reluctant to include him in their band.

Last year, during an appearance on the Michael Anthony Show, Paul admitted that he also possesses a powerful singing voice. However, he opted to let his siblings take center stage instead.

He stated: “I used to sing, but I don’t do that anymore. With two family members who can sing, it seems redundant. Perhaps it’s time for a change…I have chosen not to sing.

On a cryptic post made on Monday, it seemed that Liam indicated that Oasis would be bringing their reunion tour to America.

The musical performer along with his sibling Noel find themselves under pressure due to demands for ticket refunds from disappointed fans. This follows the UK tour leg being sold out, and the cost of regular tickets rising dramatically from an initial price of £148 to a current price of £355 – a nearly-double increase that has been attributed to ‘dynamic pricing.’

Regardless of the opposition they might have faced, they are now poised to perform their largest-ever U.S. concerts. Liam recently seemed to confirm recent speculations on X.

When one fan asked: ‘Liam I know you’re not the biggest fan of us but is Oasis coming to AMERICA?’

He replied: ‘I love America and I know deep down you love ME.’

Reports claimed on Saturday that Liam and Noel had ‘financial incentive’ to expand the tour.

A source shared with The Mirror: ‘Live Nation promoters are very excited about this potential event, and both Liam and Noel have discussed their intentions. Whether they can complete the tour without arguments is still uncertain, but there’s a significant financial motivation driving them to keep things moving forward.’

According to the report, it’s stated that the band is set to perform at the massive SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, along with numerous other large concert halls scattered throughout the U.S.

Billboards in New York’s Times Square appeared to tease US dates. 

The electronic communication displayed the emblem of Amazon Music along with an image of the Gallagher brothers, accompanied by the statement: “In case advertising on a billboard is necessary for their appearance in the U.S., here’s our virtual billboard.
