Liam Gallagher has hit out at child support claims amid his fresh legal battle with the mother of his youngest child.
The Oasis frontman is reportedly embroiled in a bitter court battle with ex Liza Ghorbani, the mother of his 12-year-old daughter Gemma, after she recently launched a new claim for increased child support in a New York court. According to sources, the 51-year-old, who had a brief affair with the Manchester-born rocker when she interviewed him in 2010, has demanded more child support money ahead of Liam’s big Oasis reunion tour.
The gigs have reportedly landed Liam and brother Noel Gallagher, 57, a whopping £50 million. Sources claim that Liza is “taking advantage” of Liam’s fortune. They went on to add that he’s “already generous” and has continued to meet his child support obligations.
After news of the fresh legal battle emerged, Liam took to social media to hit out at his ex, and revealed the staggering amount of child support he was already paying to Liza. “GOLD DIGGER”, he posted on X/Twitter. “And it’s 300 grand a year not 36 grand a year get your SUMS right LG x”.
The case, filed in the New York Supreme Court under “Liza Ghorbani vs. Liam Gallagher – child support”, marks the first legal move since a confidential settlement was reached in 2015. At that time, reports suggested Ghorbani was receiving around £3, 000 per month. Reflecting on the resolution, she previously stated: “I’m just really relieved this ordeal is over for the sake of my daughter”.
A source close to the singer told The Sun on Sunday that Liza is “taking advantage” of the rocker’s recent fortunes. “He has always met his child support obligations, and they’re already generous”, they said. “This claim is asking for an excessive amount of money, and it’s definitely added some stress before the tour”.
The duo reportedly reached a confidential settlement in 2015, and at the time, it was suggested Liza was receiving around £3, 000 per month from Liam. The new case has been called “silly” by insiders close to the singer.
The duo first met in 2010, and after a brief romance, Liza gave birth to their daughter Gemma. However, Liam was forced to admit to being Gemma’s father in 2013 after Liza filed a £2 million lawsuit over allegations he had failed to pay child support or attend hearings related to financially supporting their daughter. The lawsuit led to the breakdown of his marriage to then-wife Nicole Appleton, and he used his divorce as the reason why he was unable to pay child support at the time.
The rocker has four children with four different women, and fathered his first child, daughter Molly, 26, following an affair with singer Lisa Moorish just two months after he married actress Patsy Kensit. He also shares son Lennon, 25, with former EastEnders star Patsy, and son Gene, 23, with All Saints singer Nicole.
