Robbie Williams shares concerning news about parents' health
The former Take That singer is currently in the middle of his UK tour.
Sharing an update on his own health, Williams reported: "Well, I've been ill with some sort of virus for a couple of weeks, which is making me feel very weak. It's par for the course on tours. Everyone gets something."
He then shared: "Things at home with my parents? Very precarious right now. It's real-world stuff that deeply affects me and my wife. And if my wife is affected, you can bet I am. So the maths are: Virus + ill parents + stadium tour."
Williams previously announced that his mother, Janet, had been diagnosed with dementia in November 2024.
Earlier this week, the Angels singer told The Sun: "My mother has dementia and she doesn't know who I am anymore. She doesn't know where she is anymore."
He also revealed his father, Pete, has Parkinson's disease and struggles to be as social as he once was.
"He used to sing with me every night on stage, he would come out, steal the show and be charming and then wander backstage for a glass of red wine. Now he can't leave the house."

The woman — who shared her story on a community forum — said she doesn't want her daughter to feel "excluded" — but also doesn't want her to be the "mean girl A woman wants to host a party for her daughter — and not invite a 'mean' classmate who recently excluded her — but, she's unsure if it's the right call. The woman detailed her story in the 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' forum on the U.K.-based community site Mumsnet, explaining that her 10-year-old daughter was recently invited — and then uninvited — to a classmate's end-of-the-year party. The original poster (OP) said her daughter was uninvited because the girl throwing the party found out that the boy she likes has a crush on the OP's daughter. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! '[My daughter] doesn't even like this boy or care about boys in general (thank god), but the girl doesn't want [her] at her party because he will be there. [My daughter] has since been called names and been made fun of by this girl at school,' the woman said. The OP discussed the issue with the other girl's mother, but was merely told, ' 'You know what girls that age are like when it comes to boys.' ' The woman said she is now considering throwing her own, bigger party for her daughter's class and inviting everyone but the girl who had excluded her daughter.

'I don't want [my daughter] to be upset and excluded, but I don't know if I can let her be the mean girl, excluding someone else and making them upset,' the OP said in a follow-up comment. The majority of the woman's fellow community members said they thought that she should throw the party — and that it might even serve as a learning moment for the other family. 'Do it. You're teaching the girl and her mother a valuable lesson here — that its not nice to be mean. Her mother obviously isnt teaching her,' one person said. '[Throw a] bigger, better party for sure,' said someone else. 'I'd go full-on petty with this one, and if the mother complains, [say], 'Well, you know what girls are like with parties nowadays.' However, a few other Mumsnet users advised against it. 'Don't. Go high, not low," one person said. "A 10-year-old, we can forgive [...]. However, she's sadly got a weak, ridiculous parent. Go ahead and throw your daughter a party," someone else said before adding that they would invite the other child in order "to show the [other] mother how to behave properly.'
