Is Van Morrison the baby's father after all?

New twist in bizarre story of a mini Van


Guinness PubFinder Ad

“He was very good to her,” said Higdon. “But what he didn’t realize was that she had developed a crush on Van. There was no question about it from the way she talked.

“I’ve only ever spoken to Van once. He called the house where she was living and I picked it up and he said, “Gigi, It’s Van!” and I said, 'Hold on.'

“She would tell [her boyfriend] she was going to Ireland to hook up with a friend Marina, but that was a code word for Van.

"She was constantly traveling to London or wherever he was. She said the only reason she was keeping a place here [in Dallas] was because of her brother (who is ill). She loves him, but she also loves Van. She said, 'If it wasn’t for my brother, I’d be out of here.'"

The boyfriend finally became aware of the relationship four years ago. “He saw CDs autographed by Van Morrison lying around,” Higdon said, “and one day he asked me, 'What’s the truth?'“

Gage’s boyfriend confirmed to The Mail on Sunday that he broke off their relationship about four years ago because he believed that she was Van Morrison’s mistress.

Higdon told the Daily Mail she went with Lee when she had a sonogram and it was labeled with her name and Van’s and she stated, “Oh, he looks just like his daddy.”

She is also deeply involved in Van Morrison’s business life.

The Daily Mail revealed she is listed under a Texas address in Companies House documents in London, appearing both as secretary and director of Morrison’s businesses.

Her occupation is listed as “real estate management” and the 14 companies cover Morrison’s business activities in film, music and concert tours.

Scott Foundas, a journalist with U.S.-based LA Weekly, told the Daily Mail yesterday that he had met “Gigi with Van Morrison on several occasions.”

He said: “the most recent was a few months ago when I attended Van’s concert in Chicago. She was heavily pregnant at the time. It never occurred to me to ask whether Van was the father.

“You don’t go round asking people who the father of their baby is. They don’t go in for any public displays of affection. Two days ago, Phil Lobel [Morrison’s publicist] sent me an email saying, 'Gigi had her baby.'”

"Gigi is a very striking woman. She’s about 5ft 10in – a little bit taller than Van – and slim with long, blonde hair. You can tell that she cares about her appearance. She’s always very well dressed, but nothing too showy or flamboyant.
