The reconciliation of the notorious Gallagher brothers could be due to Noel’s recent divorce, reports claim. Fifteen years after their explosive split, Oasis has announced they are officially reuniting for a string of gigs next year - but given the Gallagher brothers’ notoriously fractious relationship , fans are now pondering what prompted the reconciliation. According to reports, Noel Gallagher’s recent divorce could be a key factor.

It’s no secret that Noel and Liam, 57 and 51 respectively, had long had a strained and tumultuous relationship , but reports claim Noel’s ex-wife, publicist Sara MacDonald, only exacerbated the rift due to her and Liam’s on-and-off feuding. In February 2018, lead singer Liam publicly labelled his then-sister-in-law a “dark” person, tweeting: “She’s the reason OASIS is no longer have to put it out there she’s DARK [sic]”. In another tweet responding to a fan’s question about a possible reunion, Liam wrote: “I’ve told you before [Noel’s] rite up for it but you know who won’t let him as she doesn’t like Oasis music [sic]”.
