It comes as Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds are readying to play a special homecoming concert at Wythenshawe Park in Manchester this year. The gig will mark the band's first headline show since 2019 and the first major concert hosted at the park.
The pair met in 2000 while the former Oasis guitarist and songwriter was married to Meg Matthews, whom he divorced in January 2001. Gallagher and publicist MacDonald married at a private ceremony in June 2011 and share two children, Donovan and Sonny.
Gallagher is also father to Anais Gallagher, whom he shares with Matthews.
