The Sun on Sunday's pictures show the pair arriving at Luton airport where they chatted and joked before flying to Edinburgh on a £3.5million private jet.
In another snap Paul, 59, is seen at Liam's North London mansion on Friday.
A source said: 'Liam is supporting Paul through this. He invited him to stay with him at his house before they travelled to Edinburgh.
'Paul looked like he was moving in and had two large suitcases. When he was at the airport he only had one smaller case.'
The source added: 'It says a lot about Liam. He has an incredibly hectic schedule at the moment because of the tour — but he wants to be there for his big brother.'
Paul is on bail accused of rape, strangulation and coercive control, said to relate to one alleged victim.
He faces a total of 11 charges including sexual assault, actual bodily harm and threats to kill and is due at Westminster magistrates' court on August 27.
Last month Liam was believed to have dedicated hit Stand By Me to Paul as he and Noel, 58, played Wembley.
Public show of support
He did not name Paul but beat his chest after telling the packed stadium: 'I've got to dedicate this next tune to our kid.'
On Friday and last night Oasis played in front of 70,000 fans at Murrayfield.
Paul lives in a North London flat bought for him by Noel in 2004.

Police said the charges relate to incidents alleged to have taken place between 2022 and 2024 and that a woman is being supported by specially trained officers.
Paul's lawyer said: 'He has always strongly denied the allegations. He looks forward to clearing his name.'
Oasis are next due to perform again in Edinburgh on Tuesday before back-to-back sell-out gigs in Dublin.

Paul's lawyer
Paul is set to play as a DJ at the Ultimate Oasis Weekender after-show party following their gig at Croke Park — just 11 days before his court date.
The band will then leave for dates in Canada, the US, Mexico, Japan, South Korea, Australia and South America.
The three brothers grew up in Burnage, Manchester, but Paul has never been involved with the band. However, he said in an interview: 'I always had the cool records.'
His 1996 book Brothers: From Childhood to Oasis — The Real Story charted Liam and Noel's struggle for success and how they coped with stardom.
It was written with the full co-operation of mum Peggie and included previously unpublished family photographs.

Tourists visit 'most boring place in the UK' to see if it deserves reputation
Two tourists decided to spend a day in a 'boring' British location to see if it really was as bad as people make it out to be – and they were surprised by what they found For years, the Berkshire town of Slough has earned a reputation as one of Britain's worst places to call home, as it's often named both the ugliest and most boring place in the UK. The area is plagued with shuttered shop fronts and abandoned high streets. But two tourists decided to see just how bad it truly was. Posting on TikTok, Liam Dowling from Australia and Matt Giffen from Canada chose to spend a day in Slough to determine whether it genuinely lived up to its dismal reputation. And they were shocked to what they found as they arrived there. Liam asked viewers: "Okay, can a Canadian and an Aussie have fun in the most boring place in the UK? That's what Google and ChatGPT said is Slough... Come with us on a day is what's known to be the worst place and see if we can have fun." "How bad could it really be?" Matt wondered, appearing to maintain a positive attitude about the town at first. Their first port of call was the local Wetherspoons, named 'The Moon and the Spoon'. Inside, they encountered some residents and sought suggestions for activities. Hilariously, a man quickly recommended hopping back on the train to explore somewhere else entirely, which caught Liam off guard. The pair then ventured outside, where they seized the chance to quiz additional locals about attractions in the vicinity. One resident quickly said: "There's nothing here." A bewildered Matt questioned: "Why does everyone keep saying that?". The bloke didn't hold back with his candid response as he said: "Because it's a dump." After persuading Matt to down a shot, Liam declared: "Now we're having fun." The duo then pressed on with their mission to uncover some entertainment. They found themselves wandering down the high street in central Slough, which locals had branded 'the worst place on Earth'. One resident even warned them not to trust a soul in the town. Nevertheless, they made their way to Chicking Chicken Shop, one of the few local places that had come recommended. Despite being tucked away in what appeared to be a deserted shopping centre, Liam and Matt were blown away by their meal. Liam raved: "Bro, that is unreal. That's the most amazing chicken shop wings I've ever had. Slough might not have a shopping centre or anything else, but they have great chicken shop wings." Their adventure continued at another pub called The Brickhouse, before they headed to Slough Ice Arena for some ice skating. "See guys, you can have fun wherever you go. You just got to do fun stuff," Liam remarked whilst gliding across the ice. For their next meal, the pair grabbed a pizza from Pizza GoGo. They wrapped up the video back at the local Spoons, before catching their train out of Slough. Reflecting on their adventure, Liam concluded: "It's been an interesting day." Matt concurred, saying: "Here's the thing, it's not a fun place, but we had fun together." Liam finished the clip on an upbeat note, adding: "The one thing I will say is the people here, everyone was so friendly, so nice... Slough, we had as much fun as we could."

Leonardo DiCaprio reveals 'biggest regret' from his career in honest admission
Leonardo DiCaprio has revealed the 'biggest regret' he has from his career in an honest admission. The Academy Award winner, 50, has starred in some of Hollywood's biggest hits, from Titanic to The Wolf Of Wall Street - but there's one job he regrets turning down. Speaking to Variety, Leo revealed that the movie he had to back out of was Paul Thomas Anderson's Boogie Nights. Leo had to pass on starring in the 1997 film because he was already signed on to play Jack Dawson in Titanic. Instead, Mark Wahlberg took on the role of Eddie Adams in Boogie Nights - which was nominated for three Oscars and deemed one of the best films of all time by Variety. Meanwhile Titanic was nominated for 14 Academy Awards and won 11. Leo said: 'I'll say it even though you're here: My biggest regret is not doing Boogie Nights, it was a profound movie of my generation. 'I can't imagine anyone but Mark in it. When I finally got to see that movie, I just thought it was a masterpiece.' The actor told GQ in 2008 that he wished he could have done both films but was forced to choose. It comes after Leo hinted he has finally settled down with his model girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti in a new interview, after making some changes in his life since entering his fifties. The star, known for his lothario lifestyle, has always hit headlines with his relationships with model women all under the age of 25. Ever since he burst onto the big screen in the early 1990s, Leonardo has dated a never-ending conveyor belt of glamorous models and actresses, including Gigi Hadid, Gisele Bündchen and Bar Refaeli. Vittoria has seemingly broke Leo's rule of strictly dating women under the age of 25, as the pair's relationship continues to blossom. In a rare new interview with Esquire UK, Leonardo declared he is living by the new rules of always being 'honest' and more 'upfront' because he has 'no time to waste' at his age - which has been inspired by his beloved mother Irmelin Indenbirken, 82. Leo reflected on how there is 'much more life behind him now' than there is ahead of him as he discussed is expectations for the coming decades. Speaking in the unfiltered interview, Leo said: 'Turning 50 creates a feeling like you have a desire to just be more honest and not waste your time. 'I can only imagine how the next few decades are going to progress. 'I look at my mother, for example, and she just says exactly what she thinks and wastes no time. She spends no time trying to fake it.' Before Vittoria, he famously split from Camila Morrone after five years together in 2022, just a month after she turned 25. Detailing the importance of saying exactly how you feel, he explained: 'Being more upfront and risking having things fall apart or risking the disagreements or risking going your separate ways from any type of relationship in life. 'The personal, the professional — it's that you don't want to waste your time any more. 'You have to just be much more upfront. It's almost a responsibility, because much more of your life is behind you than it is ahead of you.' Leo famously dated model Gisele for five years starting when she was 18, to a five-year romance with Bar Refaeli that ended when she turned 25. The Hollywood star had also been linked to model Gigi after they fuelled romance speculation in September 2022. He was first linked to the model just weeks after his split from then-girlfriend Camila Morrone. But rumours were quickly squashed in February 2023, as a source told 'Leo is very single right now and he is not keen on the hype suggesting that he is seeking out these very young women.'

Famous comedian 'escorted out' of Sir Mick Jagger's birthday after incident
Comedian and Celebs Go Dating narrator Rob Beckett has revealed he was 'frogmarched' out of Rolling Stones legend Sir Mick Jagger's 82nd birthday party after a night of heavy drinking. Beckett, 38, scored an invite to the exclusive celebration at Chelsea hotspot The Rex Rooms as the plus one of fellow comic Jimmy Carr. The star-studded guest list included Ronnie Wood, Sacha Baron Cohen, broadcaster Mariella Frostrup, and fashion icon Lulu Guinness – but Beckett's rock 'n' roll evening ended in a rather less glamorous fashion. Speaking on The Parenting Hell podcast with co-host Josh Widdicombe, Beckett admitted he'd arrived at the bash already several drinks deep, having spent the earlier part of the evening celebrating at Oasis's long-awaited reunion gig at Wembley Stadium. 'It was a tiny little back room and Mick Jagger was there,' Beckett recalled. 'Obviously, a lot of his ex-wives and children from his ex-wives. There was Mariella Frostrup, someone Guinness – Lulu – this sort of fashion lady who looked like Lady Gaga, Sacha Baron Cohen, Ronnie Wood… It was really nice. They were really chatty and hospitable.' While Beckett briefly greeted the Rolling Stones frontman, he confessed he never struck up a proper conversation with Jagger, who was holding court in a separate room. Instead, he spent time chatting to Ronnie Wood and his wife Sally, all while realising he was becoming far too drunk to hold his own among rock royalty. 'I've had six pints of lager, two espresso martinis, and I'd say a bottle and a half of rosé,' Beckett admitted. 'I'm stood there wearing a Stone Island anorak with a vodka and soda after being on a motorbike, chatting to Ronnie and Sally Wood and Jimmy Carr, and I'm just talking absolute s***.' More Trending Sensing the situation was spiralling, Beckett said he decided to make an exit – but it wasn't exactly a discreet one. 'I got like frogmarched out by four people that were holding on to me,' he laughed. 'Maybe I got kicked out, I don't know! They're walking me out like they're extracting me, like I'm a Rolling Stone and there's 10,000 people trying to grab me.' The party continued without him, but Beckett still remembers the night happily: 'It was one of the best nights of my life,' he insisted, despite – or perhaps because of – his rock 'n' roll-worthy ejection.
