he said he hasn't had a drink in 19 years. He said later in the interview that he hasn't been completely sober since rehab. he had a bout with prescription meds later in the 2000's.
I love how Elton has helped so many people kick the habit and stay sober ❤.. Also love how Robbie is comfortable in his own skin 😊 A true gem of a human being that's articulated so many emotions through music 💎
Good morning Robbie. I'm glad for you. It's a much better life you wake up sober in the morning. I walked the road of alcohol and I also made a decision...I want to be sober. Today I'm living a sober life and I'm so grateful for that. Life is beautiful when you are sober. Hendrik Venter from Pretoria South-Africa.
Holy shit I didnt realise it had been 19 years since he last had a drink. Im so proud of him. Also Ayda had alot to do with it, as well as Elton. I also love how Elton is like the sober big brother helping so many people to get sober. I also didnt realise he was sober at Knebworth either.
I love the way Robbie reinvents himself. He hs been up and down, sober and not so much, controlled and out there but he comes back to being Robbie. It has given him a perspective on life which i hope he can pass on to his kids.
He was doing his sound check at an outdoor arena as my husband and I walked (limped) into Santiago de Compostela in June 23. The last couple of our 500 miles we covered, and it was transformative. Always love for RW.
Never heard of him until the Netflix special and I am the same age! I did hear his big 3 songs back in the 90’s but he never toured here so out of mind. I’d go to London or Brisbane now to see him!
These 2 both had hard partying alcohol problems. Things they could be loved & hated for. Am so pleased they have found their best sober lives. I have given up booze for medical reasons & realised for mental health i shuda done it sooner! Each to their own of course 🎉I binge watched the Netflix series & it moved me, feel i know Robbie a lil bit better 😌
Just saw the doc, really happy for him he's more content and appreciates his blessings. Also, since I'm not too familiar, I watched a few live performances. He's phenomenal! Wow! Also that Angel song is beautiful!
I had never heard of Robbie Williams until I watched the Netflix docuseries on him. Am really surprised he never made it here in the USA, not for lack of trying. He has some really good songs!
I never expected Robbie to make 40, I always said to my wife that he was a tormented soul on a path of destruction. To see him now so well balanced and happy is great, I have never been more pleased to be wrong 😊.
So much respect for someone who can confront the demons and come through and be honest about needing help. So many people live stable lives and, quite rightly, focus on family and work and never see the highs & lows that some of us have been through. At 66 years of age, I feel like I have lived 3 separate adult lives and the people around me today know almost nothing of what came before. I was never lost like Robbie but I prefer not to share my past. Instead I hide behind funny stories that are true but which hide so much. One life, live it well. Choose love not hate, be a friend not an enemy and squeeze every ounce of fun from every day. None of us know what tomorrow will bring.
I never liked the guy...obvisouly judging him on the way he presented himself when he was all over the TV, but the recent documentary of him had me in tears, it's amazing how our opinions are formed of folk when we think we've seen the entire person through media
I havnt seen the doco but I saw him on TrueGeordies podcast and completely changed my opinion of him, I thought he was a feminine soppy pop singer only to find out that he is an absolute lad who just loved drinking, drugs and sex addiction which ultimately ruined his life and is something we have all either been through ourselves or have witnessed a loved one go through....then when he said his fav genre of music is rap I was sold 😂
I’m American but have always been more into UK pop/rock. Robbie has it all - seriously talented artist, smart as hell, charming and great looking. Never understood why he wasn’t able to break into the US market; at his peak in the late 90’s/early 00’s, he was one of the biggest names in British pop who released one quality hit single after another. I wasn’t aware he’d recently done a Netflix docuseries until reading some other comments. Glad he’s finally getting some recognition from the US.
It does him credit that he recorded 'Angels' while he was in the turmoil of addiction and that he delayed his rehab just for it That song probably saved his career, and the recording was excellent
His money is coming from: his looks, his songs which others have written, his addict over which he has won. Respect for this. I hope he can be humble. I love the performance espescially in the early years
Love ya Rob. Thanks for being vulnerable, you help a ton of ppl by being honest. Still love you in TT the most, I love seeing you in a brotherhood when you can allow yourself to accept love ❤
Wow! Such a powerful story! It also speaks volumes about having resources match readiness and not the other way round! Sounds like money can buy you sobriety after all!
You are a good performer on stage! I love the song Angels! I am watching it November/ Autumn 2024 you were a party boy! Selffish Now you think about your children! I am watching it the Holidays are Approaching! ❤❤❤
I saw your doko an netflix although i always followed your music i didnt realise that side of im so pleased that you are happy now with your wife and children godbless you 🙏
Robbie, yes he's up his own arse and a bighead. That said, I still really, reply like him. Seen him live twice and he can do it very well indeed, proper showman
I near choked on my whiskey when he said he's been sober for 19 years!! Fair play Robbie 🙌🏻
In other circumstances that worth celebrating with some 🥂
he said he hasn't had a drink in 19 years. He said later in the interview that he hasn't been completely sober since rehab. he had a bout with prescription meds later in the 2000's.
This is the type of Robbie I like, relaxed, funny, sober
I love the pub game idea
I couldn't be happier for this man. He's gone through so much and has come out the other side. So many don't make it. So proud ❤
I love how Elton has helped so many people kick the habit and stay sober ❤.. Also love how Robbie is comfortable in his own skin 😊 A true gem of a human being that's articulated so many emotions through music 💎
But Robbie stayed the night at Elton's wink wink
Eminem says similar things about Elton. I don't like the fell's work NOW but he clearly cares for others he likes in the industry
Good morning Robbie.
I'm glad for you.
It's a much better life you wake up sober in the morning.
I walked the road of alcohol and I also made a decision...I want to be sober.
Today I'm living a sober life and I'm so grateful for that.
Life is beautiful when you are sober.
Hendrik Venter from Pretoria South-Africa.
he seems to be content with his life..wife and children...his honesty is refreshing
I just love his honesty. I am so happy that he is happy and living his best life. I think he is really talented and also lovely.
Congratulations on your sobriety, proud of you! Robbie has a beautiful voice. Keep going your great!
Holy shit I didnt realise it had been 19 years since he last had a drink. Im so proud of him. Also Ayda had alot to do with it, as well as Elton. I also love how Elton is like the sober big brother helping so many people to get sober. I also didnt realise he was sober at Knebworth either.
You don't realise much do you?
Yes give him a good hiding Robbie.
I love the way Robbie reinvents himself. He hs been up and down, sober and not so much, controlled and out there but he comes back to being Robbie. It has given him a perspective on life which i hope he can pass on to his kids.
one of the most honest people around. Fair play to him
I think so too. That's very rare.
He was doing his sound check at an outdoor arena as my husband and I walked (limped) into Santiago de Compostela in June 23. The last couple of our 500 miles we covered, and it was transformative. Always love for RW.
I am so proud of Robbie. What he went through and where he is now. It is amazing.
I am glad he is finally happy in his life.❤
is he though? How do we know?
We don't
wish him all the love and support he needs, what a men.
Makes you love Elton John even more! What a gift to society both of them. 👍🏾🎼
Never heard of him until the Netflix special and I am the same age! I did hear his big 3 songs back in the 90’s but he never toured here so out of mind. I’d go to London or Brisbane now to see him!
This guy tells the best stories of any celebrity 👏🏻
Robbie all grown up!!, so glad he got the happy life he deserved.
I’m so proud of him. God bless him!!
God id just an idea. YOU bless him, thank you √
Thank you Elton ❤ for saving another precious person from all that!!!!

Each to their own of course 🎉I binge watched the Netflix series & it moved me, feel i know Robbie a lil bit better 😌
I love the care from Sir John, also also Robbie's way of narration.
Just saw the doc, really happy for him he's more content and appreciates his blessings. Also, since I'm not too familiar, I watched a few live performances. He's phenomenal! Wow! Also that Angel song is beautiful!
Didn't know that about Elton..omg he really saved you !!!! I now have much more respect for Elton after hearing this. 🙏🙏
after they did lines of coke and slept together hahaha
Sobriety can be an ever treacherous road to navigate, but if you take it a day at a time and not get ahead of ourselves it works. Good on ya robbie
Wishing him continued sobriety and good health. ❤
happy birthday robbie for your wonderful 50 years and bring to na infinity to happiness and serenity from italian boy live in rome
I had never heard of Robbie Williams until I watched the Netflix docuseries on him. Am really surprised he never made it here in the USA, not for lack of trying. He has some really good songs!
Never realised he wasn't big in USA. He's an international mega star selling 75,000,000 records worldwide
tbf he never really try since early 2000s
@@PickeringSamuelRobbie actually said few days ago in the Netflix car drive clip in TH-cam that it is more than that 😅 over 100 million now.
Did you lived under a rock?
Robbie has always been very famous
I never expected Robbie to make 40, I always said to my wife that he was a tormented soul on a path of destruction. To see him now so well balanced and happy is great, I have never been more pleased to be wrong 😊.
Hi
Robbie Williams is a national treasure!
Not international?
Always LOVED ROBBIE.....❤❤❤
Coolest dude,so proud of him
Its good to see someone come through those dark times, not all of them make it unfotunately.
Love you loads what a beautiful soul inside & out god bless you xxx

@@kontrast4361 haha yes brother
..all of the above !!
whats the doc called, im a huge fan of uk pop
@@grahamjarman erm.....it was on Netflix a little while back, let me get back to you
Love his honesty
Everyone needs a friend like elton..helps so many....🤝
yes I always needed a friend like that but my "friends" just stabbed me in the back
🔮🤣🤣🤣🤣🎯🫱🏻🫲🏼
I just watched his concert on Netflix, his voice has been in my head for days ❤
Taylor 's Angels duet with him. TH-cam 👍
Angels is the most earworm song!!! Love it!
I like that he sings Angels now. For awhile he let the audience sing most of it.
He has a recording where the audience sings all of it.

no top lip though :(
Just love Robbie Williams .. he is so talented and so pleased to see how happy he is today❤
Amo Robbie williams!
Fez parte da minha adolescência essas músicas maravilhosas!
fair play Robbie, Well done for you and your family.
Elton continues to be real one.
Good on Robbie for being sober this long, though. That's not an easy thing. I'm happy for him.
It does him credit that he recorded 'Angels' while he was in the turmoil of addiction and that he delayed his rehab just for it That song probably saved his career, and the recording was excellent
👏👏 19 years sober Omg god seriously blessed you Amen 🙏
I love Robbie so much! He's soooooooo freaking amazing!!
I'd love to see him play James Bond, What a character.
I have loved Robbie from the states since 1999..he always had this sincerity even in rough times..so glad to see him happy.
George Michael was the first celebrity to offer RW help. Fact!
Have always loved Robbie
Robbie habla de su esposa y se emociona. ESO ES AMOR!!!
I loved his music in the 90's, but hated him lol. Now, he's perfection, someone who's grown 🩷
Good onya Robbie. Enjoy life to the fullest mate 👍
Such an interesting and relevant interview. And am thinking....... he would be the perfect dinner guest!
Have always loved Robbie Williams , fantastic singer 💓💓
Wow he looks really healthy and good for his age!
This was 5 years ago
Ele é único e autêntico! Deu a volta por cima e consegue ter um sucesso incrível. Jamais desista e seja feliz 👏🙏
Habrá cambiado? Esperemos que x sus hijos si cambie
His money is coming from: his looks, his songs which others have written, his addict over which he has won. Respect for this. I hope he can be humble. I love the performance espescially in the early years

Loved you so much in early 2000s in South Africa 🇿🇦👌👌👌🙏1:57am 6 July 2024
I've always liked Robbie's music... especially the song Eternity
When on stage i try to be a singer , how TRUE,
“You wanna box him in the ring”, PAHAHAHA, that comment’s got Mrs Merton’s cheekiness vibing all over it, God rest her soul!
For reference, the England vs Poland game was the 27th of March, 1999.
You are a good performer on stage! I love the song Angels! I am watching it November/ Autumn 2024 you were a party boy! Selffish Now you think about your children! I am watching it the Holidays are Approaching! ❤❤❤
My big crush Robbie 🥰 Looks so good.
Robbie has also helped someone to go to rehab, pay it forward like Elton helped him
The last great entertainer. He's sang to us the best songs of our youth.
Thank God for Elton John, David Furnish & Robbie Williams XXX
It would be more accurate to thank their parents rather than thanking something that doesn't exist
I saw your doko an netflix although i always followed your music i didnt realise that side of im so pleased that you are happy now with your wife and children godbless you 🙏
Robbie, yes he's up his own arse and a bighead. That said, I still really, reply like him. Seen him live twice and he can do it very well indeed, proper showman
Beautiful window paintings 🎉😮
One of The Best Singer On The Planet
There was a popular duet he did with Nicole Kidman covering a Frank and Nancy Sinatra song, “Something Stupid”
Miss you on tv
