Patsy Kensit reveals she hasn’t seen ex Liam Gallagher in 26 years despite sharing son
She previously said she was 'emotionally drained' by their three-year marriage.
Patsy Kensit hasn’t seen her ex-husband Liam Gallagher in 26 despite the fact they share a son.
The actress, who rose to fame as a child star and went on to star in Th Great Gatsby, Lethal Weapon and Grace of My Heart, married the Oasis star in 1997.
The pair welcomed son Lennon in September 1999. But just two months after the couple tied the knot, he began an affair with singer Lisa Moorish, who gave birth to their daughter Molly in March 1998.
After three years of marriage Patsy and Liam split, with the actress saying she was ‘emotionally drained’ by what she labelled a ‘sham’ union.
Now, 25 years on, she’s revealed that she’s not been in the same room as Liam, 53 since their divorce.
During tonight’s return of Never Mind the Buzzcocks Patsy, 57, was asked if she had attended any of the Oasis reunion shows.

‘But I’m so happy for Lennon because he’s gone to watch this cultural explosion. I couldn’t be happier for the band and all the people rediscovering them.’
The actress, who has also starred on soaps Emmerdale, Holby City and EastEnders, has been married four times.
She first tied the knot with Dan Donovan, the lead singer of 1980s pop group Big Audio Dynamite, in 1988. They filed for divorce after three years.
The following year she married Simple Minds frontman Jim Kerr, with the couple welcoming son James in 1993, but splitting three years after that.
Following her marriage breakdown with Liam, she married DJ Jeremy Healy in 2009, but they separated just 10 months after the wedding ceremony.

Last year she spoke about her relationships – specifically with the fathers of her two sons.
‘You don’t have to marry all of your boyfriends. My goals always been that my sons had a really good relationship with their fathers,’ she told The Mirror.
‘For me. I haven’t spoken or had contact with those men. I am very supportive of their relationships with their fathers, but I don’t have one. I like it that way.’
She was engaged to property tycoon Patric Cassidy, but they split last May. A source told The Sun at the time they’d had a ‘tumultuous relationship’.
‘While there was a lot of passion in their whirlwind romance, and they had a lot in common, ultimately it became too much hard work. Patsy has decided to cut ties completely and move on with her life,’ they said.
Patsy went on to tell Hello! she was no longer looking for a romantic relationship.
‘I wouldn’t want a relationship; I am not interested. I do believe in love,’ she said.

After his marriage to Patsy, Liam’s had son Gene Gallagher with All Saints singer Nicole Appleton in July 2001.
They split in 2013 after it was discovered that he’d fathered a child with American journalist Liza Ghorbani.
Since that same year he’s been in a relationship with publicist Debbie Gwyther.
