Noel Gallagher’s ex-wife Meg Mathews has explained why she left Oasis’ <\/a>comeback gig early after being spotted by fans.<\/p>\n Meg – who divorced Noel in 2001 – was among the gig-goers at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, on Friday (July 4) along with her daughter Anais to watch her former husband’s band reunite onstage for the first time in more than 15 years.<\/p>\n Noel and his brother Liam made their long awaited return to the stage<\/a>, playing a whopping 23 songs from their impressive back catalogue including Roll With It, Stand By Me, Wonderwall, Champagne Supernova and Don’t Look Back in Anger.<\/p>\n But Meg hit the headlines after she was spotted leaving the show early and now she has explained she simply wanted to be able to walk back to her car without getting caught up in the “carnage” as thousands of fans attempted to exit the stadium at the same time.<\/p>\n In a post on Instagram, Meg wrote: “5 stars, loved every minute thank you Oasis \u2026 you were brilliant … Great to see all the old faces \u2026 It was worth the count down … and to all the f******papers I left before the encore as I have left many a stadium at the end and it\u2019s carnage …<\/p>\n “But yes I could hear Wonderwall as I walked to my car! Happy now.”<\/p>\n It comes after Noel previously told how he actually wrote Wonderwall for Meg when they were together. Speaking about his then-girlfriend back in 1996, the rock said: “It’s about my girlfriend, Meg Mathews.<\/p>\n “She had a company which folded and she was feeling a bit sorry for herself. The sentiment is that there was no point in her feeling down, she has to sort my life out for me because I’m in bits had the time.”<\/p>\n BE HERE NOW! <\/strong>Win last-minute Oasis tickets to the Heaton Park homecoming gigs by clicking HERE<\/strong><\/a>… and join our Oasis WhatsApp group while you’re at it HERE.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Meanwhile, Meg and Noel’s daughter Anais, 25, was also at the show and she will be photographing the band throughout the Oasis Live ’25 Tour.<\/p>\n Anais recently admitted she barely remembers any of Oasis’ performances when she was a child as she was more interested in the sweet treats they kept backstage.<\/p>\n She told W magazine: “I have memories of being super young at shows and falling asleep with ear defenders on … The only thing I cared about was how many packets of Milky Way chocolate stars were in the dressing room.”<\/p>\n Anais shared a picture of herself partying at the Cardiff gig, with pint in her hand and donning a blue Oasis shirt. in a post on Instagram, referencing the lyric to Oasis anthem Hello, which started the show, by writing: “It\u2019s good to be back.”<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/2_meg1.jpg\")
