Out with our kid! Liam Gallagher and lookalike son Gene, 20, enjoy a stroll around North London… after rocker set aside feud with brother Noel for new Oasis documentary
The rocker has finally set aside his feud with brother Noel for a new Oasis documentary, 12 years after the band split.
And on Thursday, Liam Gallagher, 48, enjoyed a stroll around North London with lookalike son Gene, 20, who he shares with ex Nicole Appleton, 46.
The singer wrapped up in a khaki green raincoat which he wore over black skinny jeans and a hooded jumper.

Gene kept things equally casual, wearing slate grey sports shorts and a grey Nike hoodie with a baseball cap.
Liam is dad to four children: sons Gene and Lennon, 21, and daughters Gemma, eight, and Molly, 23, the latter of whom was estranged until recently.
The outing with his youngest son comes after Noel and brother Liam put aside their differences as they both worked on a new documentary film on the band’s iconic Knebworth shows in 1996.

The Oasis Knebworth 1996 film sees the band taking to the stage in front of 250,000 fans and later discussing the event, predicting it will never be repeated.
Noel told how 30 cameras captured every moment of the shows but the band ended up forgetting about the footage after their American tour ‘imploded’ because both Liam and Noel missed shows and they later went straight into recording a new album.
He said: ‘We were going to do the film of it then and if you remember the timescale we left Knebworth, went to America and that tour imploded, it all went t**s up and when we came back, like idiots, the first thing we did was go back in the studio and made a new record.’
Noel said the documentary reflects a ‘by-gone era’ before the internet when people would not film concerts on their phones.

Brothers: Noel said: ‘There’s lots me and Liam will never agree on, and with Oasis we both have the chance to say no to anything, but doing this was a no-brainer’
The rocker has since tried to have smaller gigs with no mobile phones but thinks it wouldn’t be possible at larger shows.
Noel previously told how he believes Liam was at his peak with the band during the Knebworth shows.
He told The Sun: ‘I have to say, listening to the audio on that, we were on fire. Liam was at his absolutely f*****g peak and I’ve since realised Oasis was at its best when he was at his best.
‘And when he started to deteriorate, the band started to go downhill. In my own view, the singles were always great.

‘The albums started to tail off a bit but when you see this thing, Liam’s at his absolute. It was great looking back on it and I could actually see what all the f*****g fuss was about.’
It comes after Noel seemingly solidified his stance on ever returning to Oasis.
The rocker told MR PORTER: ‘You don’t really understand unless you’ve really been in it. Once you’ve quit, there is no going back. There’s no point in going back.
‘Bands are weird, you start off as young men and end up going all the way through to being middle-aged dads and all that goes with it.’
Noel decided to leave Oasis after Liam contracted laryngitis ahead of V Festival in August 2009, with the band cancelling the gig.

Noel issued a statement, blaming his brother for the cancellation, but cited Liam having a hangover as the reason.
Liam then sued Noel, demanding an apology, which he did – after which he quit the band, saying, ‘I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer’.
Both brothers went on to form new bands after this, and have been embroiled in a public feud ever since.
Elaborating on whether Oasis would have been a stadium band had they started out now, Noel said: ‘It would be mad to think that the first two records [Definitely Maybe and (What’s The Story) Morning Glory] would not transcend into a different era.
‘So, I’d probably say yes, we’d be as big. But we were going for three years before we got signed, and we might not have made it to three years.
‘Now, somebody could film you at a gig and go, ‘Nah, they’re s**t’, so we wouldn’t have been given time to develop.
‘Would we have got our foot in the door? Maybe not. But would we have been as successful? In any era, I think ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’ and ‘Live Forever’ are going to be pretty special tunes.’
