Ian Clayton Gallagher was born in 1996 in Chicago, and is often the most strong-hearted, persistent, and goofy -yet currently reckless- third oldest child in the Gallagher family. He is presumably the product of a PCP-fueled affair between his mother Monica Gallagher and Frank Gallagher's brother, Clayton Gallagher, in the summer of 1995. Ian has been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder; he currently refuses to visit the doctor and does not believe he needs to take medication. For these reasons his behavior has been erratic and out of control sometimes, worrying his family. He is very confident and very sarcastic, he can be bitchy but it’s fun when you know how to handle it. He is a high school drop out, having left his education behind when he illegally enlisted in the army.

He’s more of a lone-wolf than his other siblings, and he tries to keep a measure of distance between himself and the lives of the younger Gallaghers. Ian is shown to be ambitious, loving and responsible, but also very tough. His bipolar symptoms – acting erratically and impulsively before being unable to get out of bed for days – mirrored those of his mother Monica. Ian wasn't as ambitious as Fiona, as intelligent as Lip, or as crafty as his father, but he may have had the most potential of all his family.
