Robbie Williams suffered from “bigorexia”.

The Take That singer, 49, who has spent years battling his mental health demons, said the condition was part of a set of eating disorders he’s been afflicted by for decades.

Robbie – who has been on an Ozempic-style drug to lose around two stone – told The Sun when asked if he was ever anorexic: “I looked into eating disorders… and yes, there’s been an overarching eating disorder that has been with me all my life, it’s a mixture of all the disorders.

“I had ‘bigorexia’, which is thinking you have no muscles and no size, and anorexia.

“There is a word that’s missing though, and that’s what I am. It was either restrictive or over-eating – I’ve never had it right.

“There is an eating disorder... I’m just not sure which one is my brand.”

Robbie, who is now 12st 1lb, once survived on just one banana a day – around 90 calories.

He also admitted he is coping with the reality of no longer being in the charts as he is nearly 50 – but refuses to blame it on “ageism”.

Robbie said: “It’s not ageism that David Beckham isn't playing for PSG any more.

“Streaming has changed a lot of things, and everyone has their time in pop, it is for young people. They want the next big thing, and I am not it.

“I’m aware that soon enough my oxygen will be taken away that lets you be a Taylor Swift or an Ed Sheeran.

“Madonna had it the longest, and she did it epically, but eventually it goes away from all of us.

“And hopefully I won’t stop being me with my live audiences.”
