Robbie Williams & Ayda Field Are NOT Gettin’ Hitched!

Joke's over
Saturday, November 28th, 2009

Yesterday we learned from NME that Robbie Williams’s mother Jan spilled the news that Robbie and his girlfriend Ayda Field got themselves engaged to be wed. While I thought the news was good, I wasn’t entirely sure I believed it … turns out my instincts were correct because shortly after the story began to spread, Robbie posted a message on his official website that it was all a joke — he and Ayda are NOT engaged to be married:


Robbie Williams has denied he is engaged to girlfriend Ayda Field. In a blog post on Robbiewilliams.com titled ‘Robbie And Ayda: Are They Or Aren’t They?’, Williams addressed the recent speculation around his supposed engagement, and said simply:

“Hey all. We are not engaged. Rob x”

The news comes a day after Williams’ mother Jan told BBC Radio 5 live that the singer and Field were definitely engaged. “I’ve got a daughter-in-law, I’ve always wanted a daughter-in-law!” she told the station, adding that Williams had told her a week ago that he was planning to propose. Rumours that Williams and Field were engaged spread initially after the singer appeared to propose to her live on an Australian radio show early yesterday morning (November 27). However, Williams’ spokesperson later explained that he had only been joking during the show.

HMMM … I think this is the part where we are supposed to laugh. Go ahead … I’ll wait. Yeah, so funny, huh?

Robbie Williams & Ayda Field Are Gettin’ Hitched!

According to Robbie's mum
Friday, November 27th, 2009

NME is reporting today that according to Jan Williams, mother of UK popstar Robbie Williams, Robbie and his his US girlfriend Ayda Field have gotten engaged to be wed … and that the nuptials will prolly take place very soon. Now, take this news with a grain of salt but … considering that the info is coming from Robbie’s mother, well, it might actually turn out to be true:


Robbie Williams’ mum Jan has confirmed that he has proposed to his US actress partner Ayda Field. Williams and Field were rumoured to be tying the knot after they spoke about it on Australian radio station 2Day FM earlier today (November 27), although the singer’s management stressed that they had been joking during the conversation. However, Jan Williams has now confirmed that the couple – who have been together for three years – are to wed. She told BBC Radio 5 live that Williams told her he was planning to propose about a week ago. “He’s wanted to do something different and she’s a lovely girl and I’m really pleased for them,” Jan Williams explained, adding: “I’ve got a daughter-in-law, I’ve always wanted a daughter-in-law!” She didn’t confirm whether the couple’s on-air conversation was the actual proposal or whether Williams had previously asked Field to marry him in private. Speaking about when she thought the couple would marry, Williams admitted a ceremony could take place sooner rather than later. “I don’t think it will be that far in the too-distant future, but that’s all I’m going to say on that,” she explained. Williams added that her son has already chosen a ring for Field.

The only thing that keeps me from totally believing this engagement report is the fact that Robbie Williams is a NOTORIOUS joker … it’s really hard to believe almost anything he says cuz he mostly speaks in jest, especially in interviews. That said, if Mama Williams is blabbin’ the news, it’s possible that she may know what she’s talking about. I’m gonna wait for official confirmation from the couple that they are gettin’ wed before I rush out to buy a wedding gift but … I’m willing extend cautious congratulations to the happy couple right now :)
