Despite his famous lineage, Gallagher maintains a low-key profile, shunning social media and infrequent interviews. However, his presence is undeniable in the fashion and music worlds.
Gallagher’s modeling career began unexpectedly. A chance encounter on Brick Lane led to a South African photoshoot, and with his mother’s support, he signed with Models 1.
His recent Tod’s campaign, “Italian Diaries,” shot in Tuscany, showcased his effortless style alongside other rising stars. The shoot’s relaxed atmosphere fostered camaraderie among the cast.
Beyond modeling, Gallagher is the frontman for Automotion, a London-based post-punk band. The band, which formed in the early 2020s, has developed a loyal following organically. Gallagher and Richmond have become a prominent couple in London’s fashion and social circles.

Gallagher’s approach to fashion with his band, Automotion, is collaborative and relaxed. While they sometimes coordinate outfits for shows, their everyday style reflects individual preferences.
He also discussed his approach to health and fitness, noting his preference for regular exercise when preparing for important events, whilst admitting to enjoying social activities and less healthy habits. His insights into his personal style and fashion choices revealed a natural affinity for classic pieces.
Gallagher shared anecdotes about his parents’ influence on his style, noting their positive yet sometimes critical feedback. He detailed his admiration for his father’s and mother’s sartorial choices while establishing his unique style identity.
