Noel Gallagher says he is leaving London after series of stabbings near his home

Noel Gallagher has said that he is planning to move out of London following a number of stabbings near his home.

The former Oasis man, who has a daughter Anais, 19, and sons Donovan, 11, and Sonny, eight, claims he is moving his family out of the city because he and his wife are worried the kids will get mugged or worse while travelling to school.

”We’re just about to move out to Hampshire,” he told The Irish Independent. “We didn’t want the kids growing up in London. We’ve had two stabbings outside our house in the last while. I live as you can imagine in quite an affluent area. At one end of the street is one housing estate and the other end is another housing estate, and they are currently at war.

”One guy was multiple stabbed in the middle of the fucking day and an air ambulance had to come and land in the middle of the street and all the streets were taped off.”

He added: ”Anyway, our lad is 11 and is now coming to go to secondary school and we were just saying it would be too fucking stressful if he is on the Tube and he is coming home and he is being mugged for his phone. So we decided that we are going to go out to the country and put them to school in the country. We’ll just commute into London.”
