Oasis rocker Noel, 58, and , 60, were one of the most famous couples in the 1990s during the Britpop era, known for their party lifestyle.
Their wedding in 1997, complete with an Elvis impersonator, ended in divorce less than four years later – an acrimonious split, which has been described as one of the nastiest in recent celebrity history.
In a new interview, Meg and Anais, 26, have reflected on how her lifestyle couldn't be more different.
At the age Anais is now, Meg was partying 'six days a week, living in squats, hanging out with roadies and going on tour with different bands'.
But her daughter has swapped nights out for a book club and is living a 'normal life in a not-very-glamorous flat' - but the rent is paid by her millionaire father.

Meg told The Sunday Times: 'Anais could so easily have been a spoilt b**t but she has worked hard to find her own place in the world. She has been in therapy since she was 13 and I think that was the best thing that me and her dad could have done for her.

'She got into Camberwell College of Arts to study photography. She’s an influencer - I don’t understand what she actually does, but she’s completely independent. She lives a normal life in a not-very-glamorous place next to a railway track.
'Her dad pays her rent but she doesn’t get an allowance from either of us. She’s very bright and articulate. She goes to the theatre at least once a week, she has her book club and she’s never out of art galleries. She has the best people skills. I find her lifestyle and her enthusiasm very inspiring.'
Anais was sent to Bedales boarding school aged ten. The model recalled how she would find it 'frustrating' her parents couldn't help with difficult essays or didn't know what Ucas points were.
She said she rebelled against her 'crazy' mother and father by becoming 'conservative'.
Growing up, Anais said how her friends often wanted to stay at hers due to her mum's relaxed attitude on parenting.
The influencer said her mother would say: "What do you mean you don’t want to go to a party?", before being 'forced out the door'.
The model added she had heard the stories of her party-loving mum and dad in the nineties but 'can't equate my parents with them', as her father was always 'a great girl-dad'.

Anais said during her mother's menopause, their relationship became strained but now they help each other out.

The influencer also said her parents 'don’t understand that posting on social media can be a job'.
However, Anais did acknowledge how being a Gallagher has opened many doors in her life, as she commented: 'nine times out of ten I’ll walk into a film or fashion event and someone there will have known me since I was a kid. And that, I suppose, is the absolute hallmark of nepotism.'
Anais' parents have now made amends with the Daily Mail's Katie Hind revealing last July that she was Noel's rock once again following his £20million divorce from his second wife, , and helped him navigate the Oasis reunion with Liam.
