Liam Gallagher forced to postpone wedding to partner Debbie Gwyther for painful reason
IT was supposed to be third time lucky for Liam Gallagher as he prepared to tie the knot with his long-suffering partner Debbie Gwyther.
But I can exclusively reveal the former Oasis rocker has been forced to postpone their swanky Italian wedding while he recovers from hip surgery.
They had booked their big day on the shores of Lake Como but instead turned it into a holiday as he wants to be fighting fit for his walk up the aisle.
A source said: “The wedding was supposed to happen last month but in the weeks leading up to it Liam and Debbie decided to push it back.
“Liam is still recovering from his hip surgery and wants to be on top form when he says I do for a third time.
“Instead of putting the whole thing on ice, Liam and Debbie chose to turn their wedding into a holiday.

“They were joined by his sons Gene and Lennon, and his daughter MOLLY, and enjoyed a relaxing break.
“Debbie’s sister Katie and Liam’s brother Paul were also with them. Obviously Noel wasn’t part of their plans. They are organising another date with both their families involved.”
Their big day is a long time coming, given they also delayed their big day because of the Covid lockdowns in 2020.
Liam told this time last year how he needed a double hip replacement. He said he had to be talked into the procedure because he hated the idea of being laid up.

Liam explained: “My hips are f***ed, I’ve got arthritis, bad. I went to get it checked out and my bones are mashed up. The lady was going, ‘Oh, you might need a hip operation, a replacement’.
"I think I’d rather just be in pain. Which is ridiculous, obviously. I know that. Just get them fixed. But it’s the stigma, saying you’ve had your hips replaced. What’s next?”
Cancelling your wedding, Liam, that’s what. It’s not surprising he wants to be as fit as a fiddle, mind.
Liam has previously told how he was taking lessons to make sure he could impress Debbie during their first dance.
He said: “I’m going to get dance lessons beforehand. I’m going to f***ing flamenco it up. We will be doing salsa all-round the room.”
Debbie is in for a corking wedding night.
GOING FOR A DIVE, JENNY?
JENNIFER LOPEZ had the perfect outfit for a red carpet/ scuba diving session when she wore this zip-up dress that looked like it had been fashioned from a wetsuit.
She was decked out in the daring look for the Los Angeles premiere of her husband Ben Affleck's film The Flash – and gave him a congratulatory smooch, top, in front of the cameras.
The kiss shut down rumours of trouble in paradise for the couple, who have been plagued by whispers they have been going through a rocky patch following their wedding last year.
OLIVIA RODRIGO’s return to music is imminent, two years after her hit debut album Sour.

Euro fans a boost for Mae
MAE MULLER has a new lease of life after taking a break from social media following her disappointment at Eurovision.
The I Wrote A Song singer has admitted she needed time away after finishing last but one in the song contest a month ago in Liverpool, with just 24 points.
But she said she now feels overwhelming support from the fans she gathered during the process.
In an exclusive chat, Mae, said: “I got so much from the experience.
“I took time off social media and then, when I got back, everyone was being really nice.
“I was like, I’m not going to feed into any negativity and any negativity I did see, I’m very good at laughing at myself. I’m a British person so being self-deprecating is in my blood.
“Most people were really sweet and supportive. I’m riding on that.”
She will release debut album Sorry I’m Late in September and will then go on tour, and she wants the songs to show her personality.
Mae explained: “I’m feeling so positive. I’m so proud of the body of work. It’s a 17-track album so it’s a big one.
“It shows that I’m a multi-faceted young woman who has been through life.
“I’m looking forward to showing a different side of me.”

Niall: Me and Lew can’t duo
NIALL HORAN reckons he and best pal Lewis Capaldi are “better drinkers than we are writers”.
Which he says explains why the collaborations they have worked on have been so rubbish.
They have scrapped two tracks and now Niall is unsure whether they should even bother giving it another go.
He said: “I can’t think of one song I did over Zoom that I liked. I wrote a song with Capaldi but it wasn’t great. It was s**t.
“I couldn’t even tell you what the melody is. There’s another song I wrote with him that I could sing to you now, but I still don’t think it’s very good.
“I think we’re better drinkers than we are writers.
“This is the universe saying, ‘Don’t force it, guys. The people want it, but don’t give it to them’.”
PINK PULLS STAGE STUNT
PINK has been catapulted through the air in jaw-dropping stunts during her shows so far on her Summer Carnival stadium tour.
But despite fears the kit for the death-defying gymnastics wouldn’t fit in London’s Hyde Park for her British Summer Time shows next weekend, I’m told she is pulling out all the stops to make it work there.
Production insiders are working around the clock to ensure nothing is cut and have dedicated themselves to adapting the stage.
A source said: “This is a huge show for BST and for Pink as it’s a headline performance at one of the nation’s most prestigious festivals.
“They are doing everything in their power to stage the performance that she wants and which her fans expect.
“The production team have been studying her concerts and have travelled around the country making sure they can recreate her incredible stunts and adapt them for Hyde Park.
“There’s tremendous excitement about working with Pink to put on one of the shows of the summer.”
During the two-hour gig, Pink’s daughter Willow has been following in her footsteps and taking to the stage.
The youngster has been duetting with her mum on their 2021 collaboration Cover Me In Sunshine.
Hopefully that title holds strong for next weekend when they take to the Hyde Park stage.
