Patsy Kensit has revealed she hasn’t seen her ex-husband Liam Gallagher for 26 years, despite the pair sharing a son together.
The actress, 57, married the Oasis frontman in 1997 at the height of the Britpop era, with the couple memorably appearing in bed together for a Vanity Fair photoshoot celebrating Cool Britannia. However, their marriage was short-lived, and they divorced in 2000, less than a year after the birth of their son Lennon — named after Beatles legend John Lennon.
Appearing on Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Kensit was asked if she had attended any of the Oasis reunion shows. She replied: “No, I watched the whole thing unfold and it was magical, those memories, and I haven’t seen Liam for 26 years. 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.”
Her comments come as the Emmerdale and Holby City star fronts a new campaign for Samsung, promoting the Galaxy S25 FE phone and its AI-powered Generative Edit tool, which allows users to seamlessly remove unwanted people or objects — including ex-partners — from their photos.
The feature is inspired by research showing that almost half of Britons delete online traces of their exes after a breakup, with an estimated 1.6 billion photos expected to disappear from digital galleries and social media feeds this year.
Kensit, whose four marriages have all ended in divorce, may be among them. The campaign follows her split from property tycoon Patric Cassidy, to whom she was briefly engaged before ending their relationship last year after a series of arguments, including a public row at a charity event.
Reflecting on her romantic past, the actress has previously said she has given up on finding love after four failed marriages, admitting she has learned to enjoy her own company. “I wouldn’t want a relationship, I’m not interested,” she told HELLO! magazine last year. “I do believe in love, but for me it’s not something I need. I’ve been on my own a long time and I like my own company. Now it’s just adjusting my life to fill the hole that’s in my soul.”
She has said her main priority is ensuring her children have strong relationships with their fathers, even if she chooses not to stay in contact with her former husbands herself.
