News about Robbie Williams

Guy Chambers (bottom right), a good friend of Take That star Robbie Williams, made the comments days after the death of Liam Payne (left) aged 31, who was just 16 when he became part of One Direction in 2010. Liam, who shares a seven-year-old son with his ex partner Cheryl Tweedy, plunged to his death from the balcony of his hotel room in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Wednesday. The singer had previously spoken out about his mental health struggles having reached stardom at such a young age, with many claiming more support should have been given to the star in his youth. Speaking this weekend, Mr Chambers called for the music industry to stop working with talent under the age of 18.

Only six men can lay claim to wearing the famous Savile Row tuxedo of James Bond ; more people have stepped on the Moon. Yet hundreds more came within an inch of winning the coveted 007 role - the pinnacle for so many actors. When Sean Connery announced that the 1967 Bond movie You Only Live Twice would be his last outing as 007, the search for his replacement took producers Cubby Broccoli and Harry Saltzman in some bizarre directions. With preferred options such as Roger Moore committed elsewhere, they decided to cast an unknown. And perhaps the most improbable candidate to be Agent 007 was Lord Lucan , who was to famously disappear from his London home in November 1974 after his children's nanny was found murdered.

Robbie Williams has paid a heartfelt tribute to late Liam Payne, revealing the pair battled similar 'trials and tribulations' two days after his shocking death aged 31.

Liam died after falling from the third floor of the Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina on Wednesday, after jetting into the country to see Niall Horan's concert.

Health Secretary Wes Streeting is planning to offer jobless Brits free jabs of the drugs like Wegovy, a cousin of Ozempic, and its rival Mounjaro in a bid to get them back to work. The idea has the backing of Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer who has insisted it could help ease demands of treating excess flab on the NHS and boost the economy. Sold under the brands, Wegovy and Mounjaro, as well as the off-label prescriptions of the diabetes drug Ozempic, the controversial plan is that the injections will combat a range of obesity related maladies that force Brits to forsake work. Here, MailOnline explains who can currently get the jabs for free, or almost free on the NHS, rather than having to pay upwards of £200 per private dose.

Wild footage has resurfaced of Robbie Williams 'snogging' an Australian television reporter on her first day of work.

Analysts say the number of private prescriptions for fat busting jabs like Ozempic in the UK are predicted to soar to over 1million next year, if current skyrocketing demand continues. Sold under the brands, Wegovy and Mounjaro, as well as the off-label prescriptions of the diabetes drug Ozempic, many hope the injections will help get a horde of Brits battling obesity-related health woes back in good health. But not everyone can get them on the NHS. Supplies of drugs like Wegovy are currently limited to those with a body mass index (BMI) of at least 30 and a health condition related to their weight such as high blood pressure, or a BMI in excess of 35. This has led to a booming private prescription industry, with industry insiders estimating some 430,000 people currently pay £150 to £200 for their bi-annual supply.
