Meet Ace Appleton: The Rising Star of Pedestrian and Son of Natalie Appleton

Natalie Appleton's son, Ace, accompanied his famous mother to the opening night of the David Bowie: You're Not Alone exhibition in London. The 22-year-old, who is the son of Natalie and Liam Howlett, stood out with his tall stature, clearly inheriting his father's height. Natalie and Liam have been together for 25 years and have kept their family life private, allowing Ace to pursue his own musical path. Ace is a bass guitarist for the band Pedestrian, based in Camden, and is making a name for himself in the London music scene. The band has released their debut EP and is gaining attention for their experimental sound. Ace is well-connected in the music industry, with cousin Gene Gallagher also being part of his network. Natalie and her sister Nicole rose to fame in the girl band All Saints in 1996, achieving success with hit songs like Pure Shores and Never Ever. The exhibition at Lightroom features immersive Bowie content and will run until April 22, 2026. Tickets are available for adults and students/concessions.
