Description

Robbie Williams, former Take That star, opens up about his dark days of addiction, including acute alcoholism and drug use, in a candid interview with The Sunday Times. He reveals hitting rock bottom and digging a basement to escape, but now being sober for over two decades, happily married to Ayda Field, and father to four children. His family maintains a sense of humor about his past struggles, with his daughter Teddy listing him as Narcissistic Dad in her iPad contacts. Ayda echoes this openness, saying theyve always been honest with the children in an age-appropriate way. Robbie admits to being just twenty-four hours from death at his lowest, but now finds joy in his family life, proving that recovery can lead to real happiness.
