Some might say that Debbie Gwyther, who did so much to orchestrate a reunion between her fiance Liam Gallagher and his estranged brother Noel, can now afford a champagne supernova lifestyle as a result. 

I can reveal that Debbie’s management company, whose most prominent client is Liam, has enjoyed an astonishing increase in its fortunes. 

Newly published accounts for Fear PR disclose that it banked a £6.7million profit in the 12 months to September last year. Its takings, which worked out at £128,000 per week, increased its bottom line from £1.5million to £8.2million. 

The music manager, 44, is said to have played a key role in encouraging her fiance, 53, to bury the hatchet with his brother, 59, after 16 years apart. Their backstage rows had led to Noel quitting Oasis in 2009, saying of Liam: ‘He’s the angriest man you’ll ever meet. He’s like a man with a fork in a world of soup.’ 

However, Debbie’s tireless bridge-building worked and Oasis went on tour from July to November last year. She had started working as Liam’s personal assistant in 2013 and they soon became romantically involved. She founded Fear PR three years later.  

The accounts report that it held assets worth £11.5million before liabilities in September 2025, including an impressive £7.1million cash balance.

The couple became engaged in 2019 but have still not exchanged vows. Liam has been married twice before, firstly to actress Patsy Kensit, 58, with whom he has a son, Lennon, 26. 

During that marriage, he also fathered a daughter, Molly, 28, with singer Lisa Moorish, 54. His second marriage was to All Saints singer Nicole Appleton, 51, with whom he has a son, Gene, 24. 

He also has a daughter Gemma, 13, with journalist Liza Ghorbani, 51.

Emily In Paris star's... crochet 

As Mindy Chen in Emily In Paris, Ashley Park is invariably wearing a designer outfit. When the cameras stop rolling, she prefers to stitch together her own creations. 

The actress, 35, who plays the best friend of Lily Collins’s character Emily in the hit Netflix drama, has been using her time between shoots on the forthcoming sixth and final series to crochet herself a bikini top. 

They are filming on the Greek island of Mykonos and Ashley shared a video online of her creation: a two-toned blue bikini top inspired by the Greek flag. ‘A hobby but make it fashion,’ she says.

Impecunious TV cook Gizzi Erskine recently admitted she had to sell her East London home to pay off debts – and even to afford food and public transport. Now the 46-year-old, whose father the late 2nd Lord Erskine of Rerrick was declared bankrupt himself, appears to have found a solution to her wardrobe woes. Ahead of a run of photoshoots, Gizzi made a desperate plea. ‘Spoilt girl problem,’ she wrote on social media. ‘I have ten shoots in a row and no clothes. Who will loan or gift please?’ Explaining it would cost ‘too much money’ to buy outfits for so many appearances, she added: ‘I need everything from black tie to swimwear, to tea dresses to sportswear. Will be hoed out for nice clothing.’ Needs must.

Well, would you say no to Tom Cruise? 

Fans of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher thrillers were appalled when Tom Cruise, at 5ft 7in, was cast as the imposing, 6ft 5in crime crusader in the Hollywood film adaptations.

But the Coventry-born author explains why he didn’t make a fuss when the Mission: Impossible star landed the role in 2011. 

‘Meretriciously, cynically, I spent that split second thinking, “Here’s the world’s last remaining global movie star offering to spend $200million promoting my books around the world. How do I feel about that?” 

'And I thought, “You know what? I feel pretty damn good,” ’ he admits at the Capital Crime Festival in the City of London. 

Gloucester girls mark milestones 

There was a double celebration in the Royal Enclosure at Ascot on Saturday. Not only was the Duchess of Gloucester marking her 80th birthday that day, but her granddaughter Senna Lewis was looking forward to turning 16 yesterday. 

Senna is one of Lady Davina Windsor’s two children with her ex-husband Gary Lewis. He was a New Zealand builder who made history as the first Maori man to marry into the Royal Family. 

Senna was last seen in public with her brother, Tane, 14, at the Princess of Wales’s Together At Christmas carol concert in December

Comic Caroline goes back to school at 65 

This is not the plot of a new sitcom, but former Men Behaving Badly star Caroline Quentin is going back to school at the age of 65. ‘I recently wrote my first essay in 50 years,’ the actress reveals. ‘It was part of my application to study for a postgraduate diploma in the history of art at the Courtauld Institute in London. I’ve just been accepted.’ Speaking to Saga Magazine, she explains: ‘I left school at 16 with a couple of O-Levels and never went to university or did any higher education. I’m so thrilled to be doing it now.’ Caroline, who has two children, adds: ‘The kids keep teasing me that I’ll be able to get a student discount card and go to the Student Union bar.’

Earl Bathurst is considering ending the popular Cotswold Show and Food Festival after 37 years.

Held at his Cirencester Park estate in Gloucestershire next week, it features everything from monster trucks to camel racing and farm machinery displays.

‘I may well look at making this the final one,’ says Allen Bathurst, 65, who blames ‘very difficult trading circumstances following the Covid epidemic, escalating costs and a limit on household incomes being able to afford family days out’.

He adds that it has become ‘forever more complex to manage through increased bureaucracy and legislation’.
