Liam Gallagher sails away from the storm surrounding Oasis's shock split - on an impromptu holiday in Italy.
After his guitarist brother Noel stormed out on Friday, saying he could no longer work with Liam, the 36-year-old frontman flew to the swish resort of Lake Como.
Although he was snapped waving at the cameras and kissing his wife Nicole Appleton, at unguarded moments he looked glum. And no wonder - this latest spat in the Gallagher brothers' on-going feud has cost Oasis around £4.75million.
They have lost out on appearance fees and merchandise sales due to noshows at last weekend's V Festival, Friday's gig in Paris and upcoming shows in Germany and Italy.
A source close to the band said: "Liam has taken Nicole away for a few days and hopefully he can put things into perspective.
"He has been putting a brave face on things - as has Noel.
"The tension between them is still very high. And only time will tell if they can overcome their differences."
The band split on Friday amid reports that Liam smashed a guitar backstage and told Noel: "You're no brother of mine." Their fight is said to have become so violent that an ambulance was called.
Oasis had been together since 1991.
