Liam Gallagher has been left unwell after contracting norovirus over the Christmas period. The 53-year-old Oasis star took to social media to express his frustration, saying he did not 'remember asking Santa' for the illness.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Gallagher told his 3.7 million followers: 'Don't remember asking Santa for NUROVIRUS b*******t LG x.' When a fan asked if he had been spending time in the bathroom, he replied: 'Last 2 days Rkid hopefully there is a s****e I mean light at the end of the tunnel.'
The singer later confirmed he had eaten nothing on Christmas Day due to the virus. He also told fans he was suffering in 'ends he didn't know existed.' Despite his discomfort, he reassured followers that he would make a full recovery.
Gallagher's illness comes as the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) warned that norovirus is 'spreading easily' and urged those affected to stay home for 48 hours after symptoms stop. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and stomach pain.
The NHS advises that norovirus typically resolves within two to three days with rest and hydration. However, medical attention should be sought if vomit contains blood or appears green or yellow-green.
