Robbie Willliams dubs ex-girlfriend Nicole Appleton a ‘complete angel’ as he opens up on their turbulent 90s relationship and her heartbreaking abortion
As I delve into the tumultuous love story of Robbie Williams and Nicole Appleton, I can’t help but be struck by the raw emotion and intensity that their relationship radiates. It’s a rollercoaster ride of love, loss, and self-discovery that mirrors the ups and downs of their respective careers in the music industry.
In simpler terms, Robbie Williams praised his former girlfriend, Nicole Appleton, as an “absolute angel” while discussing their challenging past relationship and a painful abortion that occurred during the 90s.
50-year-old Gary Barlow, from Take That, recently chatted with Hello! Magazine about his forthcoming biopic titled “Better Man.” This movie delves into his romantic past during the ’90s with Nicole Appleton, a member of All Saints, who is 49 years old.
He explained that he invited her to an early screening, before admitting: ‘The most difficult bit is watching Nicole and what we went through because she was instructed to get rid of our baby…’
The singer remarked: “She wasn’t forced by me to act that way – but during my time, I was truly abysmal as a partner, incredibly so, and I was deeply entrenched in my substance abuse and alcoholism at the peak of it.
It saddens me deeply whenever I see it, for she is an absolute sweetheart, yet I can’t help but feel tainted by the past associated with my former self.
Robbie added that he called her as soon as she left the screening and both of them shed tears.
In her 2002 autobiography Together, Nicole detailed her perspective on their relationship and its end. She shared that she became pregnant with Robbie’s child, but due to pressure from the All Saints’ record company, she chose to undergo an abortion.
Reflecting on how Robbie Williams responded to her pregnancy then, she shared: “Robbie Williams placed his hand on my bump, saying, ‘This little one is giving me a new lease on life.’
Robbie supported his ex’s choice to include her experience with abortion in her memoir, yet he later confessed that revisiting the event left him emotionally shattered.
He had fully supported her… If there’s a strong belief within oneself that expressing something deeply ingrained would bring relief, as keeping secrets can lead to discomfort and misery… then he was entirely in agreement with her. (He shared this sentiment earlier with the Daily Mail.)
Ever since I delved deep into my past reflections about Nicole, as depicted in that captivating Netflix docuseries last year, I simply can’t shake off the fascination it has kindled within me.
Videos taken at home captured moments from the budding romance between the pop duo, following their initial encounter on Top of the Pops back in 1997.
The video next displays the instant when an enamored Robbie (during his flourishing solo career) popped the question during a quick phone conversation.
Reflecting on our nine-month stint together, a period marked by several breakups, Robbie shared that at the time, he wasn’t emotionally ready or capable of making a long-term commitment.
Speaking over clips from the early stages of their relationship, Robbie expressed that it was only a matter of time before he and Nicole’s lives intersected, given their similar trajectories in the music industry.
In the documentary, Robbie expresses that she is both kind, lively, and sweet; he refers to her as a genuinely good person.
However, he acknowledged that he wasn’t prepared for a romantic involvement, elaborating on the fact that joining Take That at such a young age (16) often doesn’t lead to a well-balanced adulthood after childhood stardom.
‘The years of finding yourself, maturing and growing up that everybody has it taken away from you.
Robbie is then seen proposing to Nicole in a brief phone call while he is on the road.
In the voiceover, Robbie admits, “It seems like I’m trying to persuade myself that I’m prepared for such a commitment, but deep down, I know I’m not really ready.
Due to my condition, I wasn’t capable of taking care of myself during that time. I wasn’t ready or able to be in a romantic relationship either, which led to the end of my relationship with Nic a few months later.
Robbie described how at that time he ‘felt like an infant in a grown up world.’
In the thrill of my fandom, I can’t help but recount the rollercoaster ride that is Robbie Williams’ journey post-Take That. The release of Angels in 1997 marked a massive triumph for him, yet beneath the surface, he was fighting an unyielding battle against his addiction to alcohol and drugs. This struggle, I believe, traces back to his days as a boyband member.
He admits to consuming as much as he could find – ecstasy, cocaine, and excessive alcohol. Every evening, he would drink nearly a whole bottle of vodka prior to rehearsals, making this a regular occurrence.
After a split from Robbie, Nicole started dating Liam Gallagher about two years later. They eventually got married in 2008 and have since had a child named Gene who is now 22 years old.
In April 2014, the previous pair parted ways following their separation in 2013. The turning point was when she found out that he already had a child with an American journalist named Liza Ghorbani.
Nicole is currently enjoying a ‘lovely second marriage’ with Stephen Haines and mother to Gene and her three-year-old daughter, Skipper.
Robbie meanwhile shares four children with his wife of 13-years Ayda Field.
