Robbie Williams’ wife Ayda Field has spoken out about their brief split.
As the Robbie Williams documentary drops on Netflix, Ayda Field, 44, the wife of Robbie Williams, 49, has opened up about the emotional phone call the couple had which ended their relationship.
The former X Factor judge bravely spoke about her marriage to the former Take That member, explaining that their relationship hasn’t been plain sailing. Ayda revealed that just before Robbie’s 33rd birthday, the Angels singer broke up with the actress over the phone.
Ayda divulged that after her now-husband made the tearful phone call, he entered rehab for his addiction.
The mother-of-four explained: “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.'”

Ayda continued: “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”
“He was my soulmate and then he was gone.”
Luckily for the couple their split was short-lived as Ayda and Robbie reconciled soon after and went on to marry in 2010.
