London (ANI): Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has revealed that he quit drugs in November last year because of his children. The singer had apparently been consuming narcotics for 20 years before giving it up in 2008, keeping the welfare of his family in mind.

"I've knocked all that on the head (given all that up) since last November. You must remember that I've caned it (partied hard) for 20 years and not just on the sauce (alcohol) but with all sorts," the Daily Express quoted him as saying.

“But I've had a great time and now I'm having a break. It doesn't work with kids, man. You wake up the next day after a session and you're looking for bits of your kids' homework and football boots. You're all over the place - it's rubbish," he added.

Liam has three children - Molly, 11, with ex Lisa Moorish, Lennon, 10, with ex-wife Patsy Kensit, and Gene, eight, with present wife Nicole Appleton.
