Elsewhere, her daughter Anais was spotted wishing Noel luck before Oasis took to the stage. In a sweet clip shared by a fan to TikTok, Anais, 25, was seen running up to her father, 58, and giving him a hug while he watched Richard Ashcroft perform before his own set. Anais was later pictured throwing her arms in the air as she danced the night away with her close friend Callum Scott Howells. A source told the Mirror: 'After posting about her ex-husband for weeks, Meg Mathews had a prime seat for watching the band. She was in great spirits before the set, watching Richard Ashcroft with pals.' Anais proved herself to be Oasis' number one fan as she got just as excited for the show while getting ready earlier in the day. She took to TikTok on Friday afternoon to join other fans of the 90s band in gearing up for the hotly-anticipated first night of the tour. Showing support for her father, Anais wore a light blue Oasis X Adidas polo shirt and had her golden locks clipped back as she curled her hair ready for the big show. She sported a radiant palette of make-up, including a touch of blusher and a slick of pink lipstick, as she gave an insight into her glamour routine for the epic gig. In the short video, Anais lip-synced along to Oasis' smash hit 1995 track Hello as she proved herself to be her father's number one fan.

More than 75,000 fans watched history be made as Noel, 58, and Liam, 52, appeared for the first time on stage together in 16 years. ノエルがリチャード観てる、目の前で！！ #Oasis — DJ BAR EDGEEND (@edgeend_info) July 4, 2025 Anais proved herself to be Oasis' number one fan as she got just as excited for the show while getting ready earlier in the day The once-warring Gallagher brothers proved their years-long feud was well and truly behind them as they stepped out on stage hand-in-hand to kick off the show. Throughout their set, they wowed fans with a whole litany of their top hits, including Some Might Way, Morning Glory and, of course, Wonderwall. The thousands of fans packed into the stadium were overwhelmed by the momentous occasion as many were reduced to floods of tears, while celebrities including Danny Dyer, Vernon Kay and Rob Brydon also attended the epic night. In fact, the show was so popular that even more eager fans crammed outside the stadium in the Welsh capital in a bid to listen to the sought-after set list after failing to nab tickets themselves. The epic opening night certainly seemed to be worth the 16-year wait as concertgoers took to social media to laud Oasis for their 'amazing' and 'lifechanging' performance. Kicking off the show, Liam and Noel walked out with their arms around each other in a sweet display of unity, before they proudly gazed on at the crowds, who erupted into rounds of deafening applause. 'Manchester vibes in the area,' Liam said before kicking off the show with Hello, which serves as the opening track for their 1995 classic What's The Story (Morning Glory). They then went into Acquiesce - a song from their first 1995 album, which was followed by the iconic Morning Glory - the titular song of the second studio album. No doubt overwhelmed by the fans, Liam shouted out: 'Yes beautiful people! It's been too long.' Liam then ordered the crowd to 'turn around and bounce' ahead of Cigarettes and Alcohol. After performing Some Might Say, Bring It On Down and Fade Away, Liam went off for a rest, while Noel performed his acoustic version of Talk Tonight. Then Noel appeared emotional as he performed Half The World Away and even stopped singing for a few bars at one point, with the audience being equally as overwhelmed by the moment. Liam later said: 'Are you having a good time?' before addressing the Ticketmaster chaos in a cheeky quip as he said: 'Was it worth the £40,000 you paid for the ticket.' Tickets were meant to start at £74.25 for seated tickets at their Wembley shows, with the most expensive ticket being a £506.25 pre-show party. However, screenshots from the Ticketmaster website offering In Demand standing tickets being listed for hundreds of pounds each. Throughout their various sets, poignant pictures of the family's home in Manchester flashed up on the screen along with baby pictures of both brothers. Old black and white pictures of their mum Peggy and dad Tommy were also flashed in the screen from time to time as Stand By Me played. They ended the show with Rock n Roll, but fans cheers for an encore, with the pair strolling back out, with two of their fan favourite hits still to come. The crowds went wild as they belted out Wonderwall and the brothers became very emotional as they began to close down the show. 'Thanks for putting up with us over the years. We're hard work. We get it,' he gushed. They then rounded off their first gig in 16 years with legendary track Champagne Supernova.
