Liam Gallagher's estranged lovechild Gemma seen on day out with journalist mum

Although inheriting her father’s distinctive eyebrows, Liam Gallagher’s love child has lived forever with just her doting mum by her side

For six years after being born to the rocker and New York journalist Liza Ghorbani, the former Oasis singer is still yet to see his youngest child.

Now, after father-of-four Gallagher, 46, met his other estranged daughter Molly, 21, for the first time last year, Gemma is the only one of his four children not to have him in their life.

Last year, the singer admitted he had not met his youngest kid.

“Not met the one in New York,” he said. “But I wish them well. If they ever need anything, give us a shout.”

Gemma, seen here as her mum places a protective arm around her while waiting for a bus in New York, has been raised by her single-parent mother while her father lives half the world away.

A source said: “Liza is well aware Liam is now in touch with Molly.

“The relation between Molly’s mum is as bad as it is with Liza, and it took for Molly to become an adult before they ended their estrangement.

“Gemma is only six. Through no fault of her own, she has not seen her dad.

“Whether Liam is mellowing in his old ages remains to be seen, but every child has a right to have both parents in their lives.

“Gemma is a very happy girl, and Liza dotes on her. They are incredibly close.”

Three years ago, Gallagher reached a last-minute deal out of court maintenance deal with Ghorbani reported being more than £3,000 per month.

The Oasis star turned his back on the 43-year-old journalist on learning she was pregnant following a brief fling.

The pair met in May 2010 when she wrote an article for the New York Times “A Night Out With” column during which she followed the Wonderwall star around various Manhattan bars.

News of her pregnancy led to the end of his marriage to All Saints singer Nicole Appleton.

It was the second time an affair had cost him his marriage.

His first wife, Patsy Kensit previously told of her fury after discovering Liam Gallagher slept with another woman one week after their wedding - and got her pregnant.

The actress, who said she has ‘zero’ respect for him, claims he lied to her and was unfaithful throughout the marriage.

Singer Lisa Moorish had Molly in 1998 after a liaison with the Oasis star.

He is not named on the birth certificate but paid £2,000 a month towards the child’s upkeep.

Patsy, who had so Lennon in September 1999 with Gallagher, had said: “The week after he married me, he went to Los Angeles and slept with this girl Lisa Moorish, and got her pregnant. What a ****.

“She went through with the pregnancy. You can’t blame her. He dumped her for me, and it wasn’t very nice.”

The Mancunian rocker previously claimed he hadn’t met Molly because of his toxic relationship with her mum Lisa.

While they were still estranged Gallagher, said of his eldest child: “She’s welcome in my world, without a doubt, but I just ain’t met her, because her mam’s...listen, we don’t work. We don’t get on,” he told GQ magazine.

“[I’ve] Got no problem with the girl whatsoever,” continued Liam, whose brother Noel has met Molly.

“I bought them a house and all that tack. I just think she’s best off with her mum. If it happens, it happens.

"Certainly, wouldn’t turn her away. Let it be.”

As well as Molly, Lennon, 19, and Gemma, Gallagher’s has a son, Gene, 18, with second wife, Nicole.
