Robbie Williams, the pop star, called phone giving by parents “abuse.” The father of four described his four children as “drugs,” saying he would never give them phones.

Speaking to ITV News he said: “They don’t have phones. They’re not going to have phones for as long as humanly possible. And you know they’re gonna go, they are at school, other people have phones, why can’t I have a phone? Tough. “That’s as simple as it is. I’m 51, I can’t deal with the corrosive nature of the internet and things. It hurts me. It ruins my day.

How do I administer this drug to a 12-year-old? How do I administer this drug to a seven-year-old? It’s abuse”.

Theodora “Teddy” Rose, Charlton “Charlie” Valentine, Colette “Coco” Josephine, and Beau Benedict Enthoven are the four children that Robbie and his wife Ayda Field have. Although Teddy was the singer’s daughter when she was the bridesmaid at her friend Princess Eugenie’s wedding in 2018, Teddy was in the public. The singer likes to keep his children out of the spotlight.

Robbie stated that he would open for Oasis despite a long-running conflict between the musicians as he prepares to release his new album.

The rivalry allegedly began more than two decades ago, which saw the 90s Britpop stars, Liam and Noel Gallagher from Oasis and Williams, exchange insults at each other, including a challenge made by the Rock DJ singer at the 2000 Brit Awards Ceremony to fight Liam. The feud, however, appears to have subsided with Williams saying that despite not being friends, they are not “enemies”.

Speaking to ITV News, Williams said: “I would open for Oasis. In this moment that they’re having right now, they are omnipresent and they are the peak Zeitgeist. “I can’t compete with that. So I would, I would open for Oasis. We’re not exactly friends, but I don’t think we’re enemies,” he added. The comments come as Oasis are preparing to set off for their North American leg of their Oasis Live ’25 world tour. Prior to launching his solo career, Williams was part of the boyband Take That which was behind the hit songs Pray, Everything Changes and Sure.
