Anais Gallagher has hit back at those branding her a nepo baby in an impᴀssioned interview.

Speaking to Hello! magazine, the influencer, 24, thanked her Oasis icon father Noel, 57, for the ‘financial stability’ he gave her early in life, but insisted she had paved out her own success.

She said: ‘There are a lot more dangerous industries in which nepotism is around – look at Donald Trump’s sons. 

‘I would be far more concerned with people making legislation than an actor wanting to help out their daughter who wants to be an actress. 

‘All my privilege and, in quotation marks, “luck” has come from my financial stability – not my dad’s fame.’

The model, who Noel had with his first wife Meg Mathews just a year before their divorce in 2001, suggested that children of singers were more likely to come under fire over nepotism than those with parents successful in other professions.

‘I went to school with a lot of very wealthy people who probably had the exact same amount of privilege as me, but they wouldn’t get called a nepo baby because their dad’s a lawyer or a politician. 

‘My dad paid for my private education, he paid for my university degree. I was given money to live on so I didn’t have to get a job when I was at university. 

‘If I needed a new camera, he would buy me a new camera to help with my studies – all of those things made my life so much easier than my friends who had to struggle whilst they were studying. 

‘But I never wanted to be a musician, so him writing Wonderwall never really helped me out. But him having money? Yes.’ 

Anais boasts 267,000 followers on her Instagram account but accepted that she owes at least part of her rapid rise to her rock legend father.

‘You have to look at social media as fun,’ she said. ‘I think I’m in a really unique position in that I never decided I wanted to be an influencer. 

‘I posted on my Instagram as a normal teenager would, and then, because of who my dad was, initially, I got a lot of followers. I try to navigate social media exactly the same way as my friends who would have a private account of 100 people following it. 

‘My biggest criticism of certain influencers is that their feed feels like a magazine.’

Of her famous dad, who is getting ready to reunite with brother Liam this summer for the first time in more than 15 years, Anais said: ‘With my family, what you see is what you get. They are really hard-working people. 

‘With my dad, I would always go to him for help or advice – it’s very funny that a rock star from the 90s is like the most level-headed person I know. He’s definitely the guiding force in my life.’

The influencer’s candid words come after she proudly supported Callum Scott Howells at the press night of his play Ghosts at The Lyric Hammersmith in London last month.

The model was the epitome of chic in a pink silk slip dress which she teamed with a knitted cardigan.

Anais, who has been romantically linked to the It’s A Sin star, also 25, since 2023, completed the look with red leather clutch and brown heels.

The stunner accentuated her dainty features with glamorous make-up and wore her long blonde tresses in loose bouncy curls.

The play stars the Welsh actor in the reimagined Henrik Ibsen classic as Oz who ‘returns to the family home for the grand unveiling, he has ambitions of his own, ambitions that threaten to unravel their family’s most тιԍнтly kept secrets’.

Callum previously confirmed he identifies as queer, telling Pink News: ‘I’ve always been happy to say to people. So for me, it was just part of it.

Back in January Anais shared a slew of holiday snaps as she and Callum enjoyed a fun-filled getaway to Disneyland Paris

‘I wouldn’t like to speak for anyone else on that matter. But for me it was kind of: “It is what it is”.’

Anais had been spending quality time with Callum in the wake of her reported split from her long-term boyfriend Julius Roberts.

She was in a relationship with the farmer for three years after they got together two days before Christmas in 2019.

But a source revealed they had ‘ended their relationship’ in late 2022 and she was moving back up to London, after splitting her time between the city and his family farm in Dorset.
