Has Robbie split up from Ayda Field?

Fans of the couple will be happy to hear that Robbie Williams and Ayda Field are still together.

The couple celebrated their 13-year wedding anniversary in August 2023.

The pair did call time on their relationship for a period of time.

In the documentary, Ayda recalls one morning before Robbie’s 33rd birthday when he called her and said he was being sent to rehab by his team.

She said: “I remember it was 2am and I called him and I was like, ‘I am just getting on the highway’ and he’s like, ‘Are you driving? Call me when you get home.’

“And he is like, ‘I can’t be in a relationship, I have to get better and I can’t be with you. I have to break up with you.”

She added: “And it was like, I understood it because I saw that he was unwell and I remember thinking, ‘I just want you to get better.’ He was my soulmate and then he was gone.”

The couple eventually got back together and now live in LA together with their four kids Teddy, 10, Charlie, eight, Coco, four, and Beau, three.

How did Ayda Field and Robbie Williams meet?

In the documentary, Ayda Field opens up about the first time she and Robbie met, and there being zero chemistry.

She told the cameras: “We’re just sitting there talking. We have nothing in common.”

In another room, Robbie says: “And I was like, ‘Oh, this is not working out. I’d better take her back to the party she’s just come from.'”

However, things soon turn around for the couple as after a while they begin to click.

“There was just this moment where we were laughing and I cannot even tell you what happened. It was like the universe opened up,” Ayda said.

“I had this moment where I felt I’d known her forever,” Robbie explained.

However during this time, Robbie was dealing with addiction, something he speaks about candidly in the documentary. Robbie went into rehab and cut things off with Ayda.

Reflecting on that moment, Ayda said: “And he is like, ‘I can’t be in a relationship. I have to get better and I can’t be with you, I have to break up with you.’ I understood it because I saw that he was unwell. I just want you to get better. Whatever you need to do and I was just so crestfallen. He was my soulmate and then he was gone.”

Once Robbie left rehab he reunited with Ayda as the pair and friends went travelling, and they were married a year later!

The pair now have four children together.

What has Ayda Field said about the Robbie Williams documentary?

Speaking to ITN ahead of the documentary’s release, Ayda explained she wished she could have met Robbie sooner in times of struggle.

“There were moments where I saw him struggling, where I wish I could have come in sooner to stop that. I became quite protective watching it, wanting him to not hurt like that. It was painful to watch him in pain and I cried too,” she said.

Within the documentary there are moments where Robbie reflects on his past relationships, most notably with Geri Halliwell.

Ayda told the publication she was “super uncomfortable” at times when watching footage of Robbie with other women prior to their relationship.

She explained: “It’s different when you’re actually talking about an ex and then you have to watch. It took me by surprise. I didn’t have any warning that I was going to see this or that. I had a normal female response.”
