Key factor in Noel and Liam Gallagher's reconciliation wiped from Oasis film
One of the key factors which contributed to Noel Gallagher's reconciliation with his estranged brother Liam Gallagher has reportedly been wiped from the new Oasis documentary.
A key factor in Noel Gallagher's reconciliation with his brother Liam Gallagher will reportedly be missing from the new Oasis documentary.
The siblings ended years of estrangement to get the band back together for the Oasis Live '25 Tour last year and their comeback has been documented in a tell-all film by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight which features the pair's first joint interview in 25 years.
However, a new report suggests the film will be leaving out one of the elements which may have helped bring the brothers back together - Noel's 2023 divorce from his second wife Sara MacDonald - because of a non-disparagement agreement said to be in place.
A insider told the Daily Mail's Alison Boshoff: "The film is going to cover every cough and spit of how the brothers went from being sworn enemies to being Britain's biggest band again – and then as close as ever ...
"However, the subject of Sara and the problems between her and Liam, as well as her and Noel, are being cut. There is a binding legal agreement which permits neither party from discussing one another in media projects – and certainly not disparaging one another ...
"So that means that the full picture of the comeback will not be presented to fans this time around."
Oasis split in the summer of 2009 following a blistering backstage argument between the brothers as they were preparing to take to the stage at the Rock en Seine festival in France.
The following years were marred by the ongoing feud between the pair and Liam threw a number of public barbs at Noel's then-wife Sara, even blaming her for stopping the band from getting back together.
In an interview with Q magazine in 2016, Liam said: "He's [Noel is] desperate to get Oasis back but he knows he's crossed that bridge.
"And he's not allowed to, his missus [Sara MacDonald] won't let him now, cos she's another one ...
"I know for a fact, deep down, he wants to be playing stadiums ... You can only play stadiums when I'm there. I don't think our kid's got it in him anymore, anyway. It seems to me like he's playing to the snobs and the world and the toffs."
