Liam Gallagher hinted at an Oasis reunion as early as July, but fans are only just catching on.
The Gallagher brothers on Tuesday officially announced that they have reconciled and will be reuniting Oasis, 15 years after the band's split.
The iconic Britpop group is set to embark on a massive £50million stadium tour in the summer of 2025, including four nights at Wembley Stadium.
In light of this announcement, some fans have revisited Liam’s social media and realised he had dropped a major clue.
In a newly resurfaced post on X, formerly Twitter, from the day of their tour photo shoot, the 51-year-old teased: “There’s a few big things happening, but I can’t tell you as they’re so big it’s gonna blow your minds, and I’ve been sworn to secrecy. Sorry, hope you understand.”

When a fan asked him that same day, “Morning leeeyum what's the plan for today?” Liam casually responded “photo shoot”, unknowingly hinting at the monumental comeback.
The resurfaced post comes after it was reported that former Oasis guitarist Bonehead will join Liam and Noel Gallagher on stage next summer.
Insiders told The Sun that extra concerts will be announced once this run sells out.
“This is it. This is happening,” the Gallagher brothers both wrote on their social media pages in a highly anticipated announcement at 8am on Tuesday morning.
A source said: “These shows will sell out in less than three minutes. Extra dates will be added for sure.”

Oasis posted a 91-second video announcing their reunion on social media including clips from some of the band’s biggest gigs and quotes from the Gallagher brothers.
The pair are seen laughing and sharing a kiss towards the end of the footage.
Confirming the Oasis Live 25 tour, they added: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”
The Oasis website crashed immediately as fans were sent into a frenzy following the announcement.
Ballot registration has opened for tickets ahead of Saturday’s general sale.
The UK and Ireland tour will start at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium and visit Manchester’s Heaton Park, Wembley Stadium, Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin’s Croke Park throughout July and August next year.
Tickets for UK dates will go on sale from 9am on Saturday, with Dublin tickets available from 8am the same day.
Oasis fans have been labelling it as the “ticket bloodbath of the century” as there appears to be no presale links.
Noel, 57, quit the band exactly 15 years ago on August 28, 2009.
He said he “simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer”. It was prompted by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
The brothers are believed to have buried the hatchet during a late night phone call before being reunited for a photoshoot in London last month.
