Robbie Williams won't tour with Take That

'Logistics' seem to be responsible for Robbie Williams' boycott.

Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald are working on a new record and a tour, but Robbie has other plans.

“Logistically I can't do it. I have the tour and I'm going to be a dad again,” the singer told a British newspaper. “It doesn't mean to say I won't join in along the way. Whatever happens, I am absolutely going to be in Take That, I love being in Take That,” he added.

Robbie and his wife Ayda Fields have 19-month-old daughter, Theodora Rose, and have just announced that they are expecting their second child.

“If we have a girl, it'll be totally cool but I would quite like a little boy. With Teddy, the doctor put the sex into an envelope. We went to dinner and the plan was to open it at the end of dinner. but she forgot the envelope,” Robbie said. “I think we're going to do the same thing but remember the envelope this time. I don't think we can do it any other way,” he added.

So now Robbie Williams has other priorities, and before going on tour, he must accommodate family's schedule first.

“It's a very loving, safe environment. Our biggest concern these days is that we don't travel through Teddy's nap time,” he said. “We don't get time to worry about us or the show.”
