Nicole Marie Appleton-Gallagher (born December 7, 1974) is a Canadian pop singer who rose to fame as a member of All Saints. She was formerly a member of Appleton along with her older sister Natalie.

Biography

Appleton was born in Ontario, Canada, to her British mother Mary and Canadian Jewish father,^{citation needed} Ken¹². While growing up she lived in Toronto, New York City, and London .

In 1983, enrolled in the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London she met Melanie Blatt and they immediately became best friends. In 1995, Nicole and her sister Natalie joined Melanie Blatt and Shaznay Lewis in forming the band All Saints. The band was highly successful, but broke up in 2001.

On December 7, 1997, Appleton met Robbie Williams while filming Top of the Pops.³ They had a love affair and were subsequently engaged. Appleton became pregnant, and although Williams was keen to be a father, according to Appleton's biography Together, her record label (London Records) forced her to have an abortion.⁴ This statement has been denied by the label.

In 2000, Appleton started a relationship with Liam Gallagher, the frontman of the group Oasis. She gave birth to their son, Gene Gallagher, on July 3, 2001. Gallagher recorded the song Songbird as a token of his love for Appleton.⁵ The couple married in London on the morning of February 14, 2008.⁶

Also in 2000, both Nicole and Natalie appeared in the poorly received film Honest.

All Saints split acrimoniously in 2001. In their five-year career, the band recorded a total of five #1 singles.

Nicole and Natalie formed a new band (Appleton) and released their debut album Everything's Eventual in February 2003 - a commercial failure - and a documentary (Appleton on Appleton) which was aired by the BBC, where the sisters gave an inside look into their lives.

All Saints reunited in early 2006 and released their third studio album titled Studio 1⁷ on November 13, 2006.

Nicole is currently co-hosting The Hot Desk for ITV Mobile and ITV2 - a music show for mobile phones.
