Liam Gallagher’s furious wife has banned him from home following allegations he fathered a love child, it was claimed yesterday.
All Saints singer Nicole Appleton is said to be livid at reports her rock star husband has a secret baby with a New York Times journalist.
A friend said: ‘Nicole has told Liam not to come home, at least not for a few weeks, and is furious.’
There was no sign of Miss Appleton, 38, at the couple’s £2.7million five-bedroom townhouse in Hampstead, North London yesterday.
Gallagher, 40, is in Spain, where he appeared unfazed as he downed cocktails. He was being comforted by a mystery brunette in a black bikini, who stroked his head as they lay beside a hotel pool in Ibiza.
Starting at 11.30am, the former Oasis frontman drank more than a dozen mojitos and several tequila shots as he laughed and joked with friends.
The previous night his new band Beady Eye had performed at the Ibiza Rocks festival. Afterwards he was said to have looked ‘happy and relaxed’ as he mingled with female fans and posed for photographs at Pikes Hotel, a favourite celebrity haunt in San Antonio, and danced topless on his room balcony, which overlooks the bar, until 2.30am.
Gallagher, who will fly to Alicante today to play at the Benicassim festival, has made no public comment on what his spokesman says is ‘gossip’.
The seven-month-old girl, Emma, was born in January to blonde showbusiness writer Liza Ghorbani following a long-running affair, according to the New York Post.
Last year Gallagher bought a £1.6million apartment in New York, close to Central Park and not far from where Emma is being raised.
Gallagher has ‘admitted she is a beautiful child because she has “rock star genes”’, the New York Post claimed.
It alleged Gallagher’s relationship with Miss Ghorbani ended only after Emma was born. Their trysts began after the music journalist met the former Oasis frontman in 2010 and wrote a glowing interview for the New York Times, entitled A Night Out With Liam Gallagher.
The simpering article recounted how the British singer ‘turned heads’ at the Ritz-Carlton hotel bar and ‘sauntered’ down Central Park West looking like ‘he’d just stepped off Carnaby Street in London circa 1969’.
Unmarried Miss Ghorbani, 39, has told friends their affair ended and then resumed again, according to another newspaper, the New York Daily News.
It quoted a friend as saying: ‘It went on until she told him she was pregnant. He cut it off. He was so paranoid his wife would find out.’
Gallagher has taken steps to prevent the story spreading, instructing London law firm Harbottle & Lewis to write warning letters to newspapers making inquiries about the singer’s reaction to the claims.
He is also reported to have hired a lawyer in New York to defend himself against a paternity suit brought by Miss Ghorbani at the Manhattan Family Court.
