To feel a bit sorry for Robbie Williams’ wife Ayda?

Not a huge fan of hers as she bought her last baby from a poorer woman but he sounds like an arse who dictates when they have sex according to this

So when he was on testosterone they had sex all the time and were ‘insatiable’ but now he’s off that they’re both apparently cool with their sex life being dead? And ‘everyone knows’ married couples don’t have sex anyway?

Robbie Williams and Ayda Field say they hardly ever have sex and ‘cuddle’ instead

Robbie Williams has discussed his sex life with wife Ayda Field revealing the reasons the couple hardly get intimate.

How is that different to any other couple? I mean loads of women have lower libidos after childbirth or during perimenopause and no one calls them 'an arse who dictates when they have sex'

Yes they do! They tell her how he’ll leave her/cheat if she doesn’t fulfil his “needs”!

Why on earth was he taking testosterone? That's not prescribed for depression is it?

No one in their right mind would take such a dangerous drug.

He's been an embarrassment ever since he quit TT and took too many drugs.

PollyPeptide · 26/04/2023 16:21

And he took a third person into the room so they video could what a fun guy he was for his fans.
I think most people think he's a bit of a prick but why do a YouTube vid to confirm it?

I felt sorry for her when that clip came out of him being Robbie Williams while she was in labour.

Same, he’s a twat.

A page of words on everything in their marriage and people decide exactly how their life is? If someone wrote an article on you do you think it would give everything people needed to decide you and your partner were absolutely right in every aspect of your life? And saying someone bought a baby is horrible and writes off everything they as a couple and the mother went through for a child to have a family. You should reread your post and realise that life is not all clear cut

splitsville

all they need now is to renew the vows and it’s all over bar the shouting. The writing is on the wall.

MissHavishamsMouldyOldCake · 26/04/2023 16:24

For some reason she had a stint as a judge on X Factor for a while and was so loud and obnoxious. I'd say they're well suited.

Trez1510 · 26/04/2023 16:26

He's not someone with whom I'd like any of my nieces to be involved. That's all.

If you’re in the public eye and make millions from doing so, then people are going to have opinions on you, that’s the price of fame and it’s completely optional, no one forces him to do it.

Whiskyski · 26/04/2023 16:29

What I don’t understand is why does anyone care when and how often other people have sex. Just reeks of a male pissing contest.

CarpyDiem · 26/04/2023 16:30

He's over-sharing and probably none of it's true anyhow. Well, perhaps a grain of truth about improved libido when hormones augmented. But the rest is just well I was going to type 'exaggerated bollocks' hyperbole

JusthereforXmas · 26/04/2023 16:40

Yeah I have little to no libido these days. Don't feel sorry for me though.

I find those that are at it like rabbits at my age (especially with jobs, houses, kids too look after... aren't you tired? because I'm knackered constantly) fairly odd.

That said horny or not Robbie Williams is the most UNsexy man child ever... honestly his personality reminds me of a 6 year old, like I swear theres something 'delayed' in his mental capacity. I would rather sew it shut than ever sleep with him because the thought is repugnant.

Sissynova · 26/04/2023 16:41

Interesting if you think it would be acceptable to say that about a woman. If someone doesn’t want to have sex then they shouldn’t, ‘dictating’ doesn’t come into it.

JMSA · 26/04/2023 16:41

He's a tit. Just like my other favourite, James Corden. There's nothing on this earth worse than a show-offy male.

Ohdearwhatnow4 · 26/04/2023 16:42

Not a massive fan of his but never heard of her before they got together, both seem to enjoy the limelight and she definitely benefits from his wealth and him being famous.

Oh god yes, another massive twat!

I feel sorry for her being married to
Such a twat

PollyPeptide · 26/04/2023 16:47

Was this part of her podcast, chasing listener numbers? I guess it's a bit like Jada Pinkett Smith's Red Table Talk. And we know how well that turned out.

sofamarathon · 26/04/2023 16:48

That story is bullshit

Seas164 · 26/04/2023 16:49

I don't know who Ayda is, but surely not having sex with Robbie Williams is preferable to having sex with Robbie Williams.

Tbh I feel sorry for her because he is clearly gay.

Has always been my thought too

How on earth could you possibly know that?

TedMullins · 26/04/2023 16:53

Not a fan of her or Robbie Williams but I don't see the difference between him saying this and the many, many women who post here about how they have no sex drive and expect their partners to be fine with it. Presumably if they were happy to give a joint interview and talk about this, they are both fine with it

All my media friends concur.

Mortenharkettsgirl · 26/04/2023 16:54

Is he going through the male menopause? I always thought he was gay. Familiarity breeds contempt. I think humans get bored of monogamy.
