Peter Andre reveals bizarre encounter that left Liam Gallagher praising his parenting

Peter Andre has recalled a "bizarre encounter" that he had with Liam Gallagher, in which the two men bonded over their families despite having previously been at odds.

The singer, 49, opened up about the experience that he had with the Oasis member, also 49, in a recent column - in which he suggested that it showed another side to Liam.

There's understood to have been a bit of tension between the pair previously, with Peter commenting that Liam had spokenly harshly about him during an interview in the past.

The two musicians however later bumped into each other and bonded over their families - with the Gallagher brother said to have even praised Andre over his parenting.

Peter opened up about their "bizarre encounter" and history in a column for New! magazine, recalling that Liam "once said some harsh things" about him in an interview.

The Mysterious Girl singer said that he "took it on the chin" because he had heard it was Liam's nature, though the pair later managed to even bond together over being fathers.

He commented: "A while later I bumped into him and he not only apologised, but praised me for being a great father and for my relationship with my kids."

Peter - who like Liam has four children - said that he "didn't expect" such an interaction with the fellow musician, saying the Oasis frontman is known for his "tough guy" bravado.

He explained in the recent column that the pair - who are understood to have had a tense relationship in around 2007 - reconciled when they talked about their families.

Peter said: "It was a bizarre encounter, but a good one."

The Mirror approached reps of Liam Gallagher for comment.
