Liam Gallagher, 52, to become a granddad as model daughter Molly Moorish reveals she’s expecting first child with footballer boyfriend Nathaniel Phillips

Liam Gallagher is set to become a grandfather at 52 after his model daughter Molly revealed she’s expecting her first child with boyfriend Nathaniel Phillips. 

Molly, 27, announced the news with a sweet Instagram post on Wednesday as she showed off her blossoming baby bump while cosying up to Nathaniel.

In the slew of snaps she also shared images of her blossoming bump, baby clothes and a throwback of herself, in the post captioned: ‘bulking season [pregnant woman emoji].’

Friends and fans were quick to flood the comments with congratulations. 

Her mum Lisa Moorish wrote: ‘Waaaaaaah!’ while Sadie Frost commented: ‘Congratulations – the best news’.

Molly’s father Liam, who is preparing to tour with his brother Noel this summer, has four children from different relationships.

He welcomed Molly with Lisa during a short-lived relationship in 1998. 

He has Lennon Gallagher, 25, with actress Patsy Kensit, Gene Gallagher, 23, with All Saints singer Nicole Appleton, and 12-year-old Gemma Gallagher with journalist Liza Ghorbani. 

Molly was famously estranged from Liam for 19 years, but she previously revealed she had no ‘anger’ at the situation. 

She told The Sunday Times Magazine in 2019: ‘I don’t have any anger. I’m actually thankful for how I was brought up with my mum and how my life’s been.

‘I wouldn’t be who I am now if… it’s all happened the way it was meant to happen. We just got on and I’m happy to have him now.’

After meeting his daughter in her teenage years, the Oasis musician penned a song about her, called Now That I Found You, for his album. 

Molly confirmed her relationship with footballer Nathanial on Instagram in May 2022. 

She moved from her native Manchester last year to be with the sports star, who plays for Derby County, on loan from Liverpool. 

While Molly’s mother Lisa has shown her support, it no doubt raised eyebrows for Liam – a staunch Manchester City fan. 

In the slew of snaps she also shared images of her blossoming bump, baby clothes and a throwback of herself, in the post captioned: 'bulking season [pregnant woman emoji]'

A source previously The Sun that Molly and the footballer ‘have been growing close for a while, their budding relationship is common knowledge among their friends and their families.

‘Although they have kept their romance quiet they appear to be getting on really well.

‘Everyone around them thinks they make a nice couple. Molly is clearly smitten. It’s early days yet but they seem very much in the honeymoon period.’

As well as the prospect of becoming a grandfather to look forward to, Liam will be looking forward to his upcoming Oasis tour with Noel. 

The Britpop band sensationally split in 2009 after a backstage bust-up – devastating their loyal fan base.

In the 14 years that have followed, a feud and bitter fighting has ensued with the brothers trading insults back and forth in interviews and social media.

But this year, the pair are reuniting for a huge world tour, and have dates booked across the UK, America, South America and Asia in 2025.

Liam and Noel have reportedly been ‘given strict health warnings’ ahead of their upcoming Oasis reunion tour.

Long gone are the days of cigarettes, partying and alcohol as the brothers have now been given strict instructions to take care of their health ahead of their stadium gigs.

According to new reports, Liam and Noel, 57, have allegedly gone through ‘thorough’ examinations and testing to get insurance for the concerts.

Sources told The Mirror the level of scrutiny over the duo’s wellbeing was ‘like an astronaut going into space’ thanks to the high value risk of the tour.

Both of the musicians have received extensive advice and offers of any useful treatments and have been told to ‘not over indulge’ to make sure they are fit and well enough for all shows.

‘It’s going to be a lot different to the 90s – most rock and roll fun is banned!’, a source told the publication.
