Robbie Williams Opens Up About Porn, Women, Drugs And Alcohol In New Interview

Robbie Williams has always been pretty open and honest about his demons, although he has really opened up about the life of a superstar in an interview published yesterday.

Robbie Williams must have more than a few wild stories tucked away for a rainy day, but the 43-year-old is trying his best to stay on the straight and narrow these days.

That takes a bit of work, because in an interview published yesterday on the Times Robbie spoke pretty openly and honestly about his life.

Unfortunately the full interview is behind a paywall – HERE – but IOL have many of the juicier details.

First up the porn:

Robbie Williams thinks porn has “helped [his] relationship” with Ayda Field because watching it keeps him from cheating.

The ‘Love My Life’ hitmaker has been married to the 38-year-old actress – with whom he has two children, Teddy, four, and Charlie, two – since 2010, and because of his lothario past, has said he often watches the adult entertainment in order to make sure he doesn’t “f**k [his] relationship up”.

Speaking about whether or not he is addicted to porn, he said: “I think porn’s helped our relationship. I don’t think I’m addicted to porn, but I do think it’s been a necessary tool to help me not f**k my relationship up.”

I guess it can’t be easy with all those female fans lusting after you at every show, and Robbie thinks he might deserve a medal for remaining faithful:

“But you don’t get a medal or an award [for being faithful], and I should, because I am subjected to more than my fair share of adoration. I go out and look at a stadium full of people who are incredibly fond of me and quite a few of them are incredibly good-looking. I should get some sort of f***ing award for not f***ing. A quadruple-platinum disc.”

Then there’s dealing with his addiction problems, which includes women, alcohol and drugs:

“If I stay in a pub too long, I’m going to have a drink. If I go to a barbershop long enough, I’m going to have a haircut. So do I trust myself to not drink? Do I trust myself if there was a pile of coke out there? I’d snort it at some point. So no, I don’t trust myself. But history has taught me I’m quite good at not doing it. And so it is with women. When I’m not on tour it’s a lot easier.”

The struggle is real.

In case you missed it, Robbie appeared on The Graham Norton Show a while back and told a real gem of a story. It seems apt to plonk it here:

The life of a rock ‘n roller…
