Liam Gallagher's lovechild mother ‘capitalises' on Oasis reunion with HUGE maintenance fees demands
THE mother of Liam Gallagher's lovechild is trying to 'capitalise' on the Oasis reunion to get him to pay almost £500,000 in yearly maintenance fees, a court heard yesterday. The Wonderwall singer's lawyers blasted Liza Ghorbani's 'extreme expenses' and said there was no reason for the rock star to pay them. 8 She wants a new agreement with Liam, 52, in relation to their 12-year-old daughter Gemma, who has autism. New York's Supreme Court was told he has paid more than $1million (£738,000) since a 2015 court order. He later agreed to pay $240,000 (£177,000) towards Gemma's school and autism-related expenses after being informed of her having the condition in 2021. But she is now demanding a total of around $670,000 (£494,490) per year from Liam to cover basic child support and expenses. Under her new proposal, she would get $420,000 a year in child support, plus a further payment of $250,000. But Liam's lawyer Judy Poller told the court: 'The child does have autism and Mr Gallagher appreciates the stresses and the challenges for the child. "However, there needs to be a reality here... the fact is, they are seeking this money because Mr Gallagher is about to endeavour on a new musical adventure. 'He will be going on tour, and they are looking to capitalise.' She added of Liza, 51,: ' She is looking for $30,000-a-month residence so she can have a pool, $100,000-a-year live-in nanny, a vacation budget of $6,300. 'These expenses are not appropriate. This was never an intact family that had a lifestyle.' Liam, who was pictured walking his dog in North London yesterday, is set to kick off Oasis's mega £400million comeback gigs in Cardiff next month after making peace with brother Noel, 58, following years of warring after the band's 2009 split. The star, who fathered Gemma with the US journalist after she interviewed him, appeared at yesterday's hearing via video link. Liza's lawyer Amanda Creegan says Gemma's needs are not being met. She said they were back in court because Liam had only agreed to cover tuition fees for two years, and that he refuses to 'come to the table'. Ms Creegan said Liam has never met nor asked to meet Gemma and he 'doesn't talk to her, doesn't acknowledge her'. And she accused Liam of lying about fees he had previously been paying. She said: 'About three days after she filed for the modification motion, he went on an X rant, where he called her a 'gold-digger' and he accused her of shaking him down, and lied about how much he was paying her, and violated the confidentiality agreement.' Judge Jeffrey Pearlman said he believes 'there is a settlement to be had' and scheduled a private hearing for June 13. Asked if he can make that date, Liam, in a black jacket, said: 'Yeah, I'm good for that, any time.' He asked what time it would be in the UK, then added: 'That's all good, man. It's cool.' 8 8 8 8 8
