Listen, his daughter is now 14, ANYTHING her father does is going to embarrass her - but in front of Harry Styles? That's actually the moment the world ends.
The In the Heat of the Moment rocker's Anais - who he has with ex-wife Meg Matthews - is a big fan of One Direction but she was left mortified after her dad couldn't resist highlighting her crush when they ran into him in a cafe.
Anais - who is now a model, don't you know (that's her on the right) - told Grazia magazine: "Harry seems really nice. I was in a cafe and Harry came in. I'd been joking that I'd probably wet myself if 1D walked in. So my dad started kicking me under the table and shouted, 'Are you going to wet yourself now?' I literally died."

Anais reckons she has inherited characteristics from both her parents and shares her dad's dry sense of humour: "I've got the same dry northern humour as Dad and we've got the same eyebrows (handy that they're 'in' right now). But I've got Mum's energy and her outlook on the world."
As for that time Noel was approached by Simon Cowell to be a judge on The X Factor; Anais is still upset he turned it down: "I'm still a little bit upset I don't get to go every week. He would have been hilarious and scarier than Simon."
