Netflix is getting ready to release a four-part documentary titled Robbie Williams. The documentary, set to be released on November 8, 2023, is expected to explore Robbie William’s early success as a teenager, examine the impact of fame on his mental health, and delve into his relationships over the years.
One of his earlier and well-known relationships was with Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, whom he dated in the early 2000s. Now, for the first time, he has explained why the couple broke up. In the four-part documentary, Robbie Williams disclosed that the short-lived romance ended after he received incorrect information suggesting that Halliwell was tipping off the photographers about their relationship.
Reports suggest that one of the paparazzi told him that Halliwell was tipping them about their vacations and outings. As soon as he heard this, Williams decided to end the relationship.
Robbie Williams & Geri Halliwell’s relationship, explored
Robbie Williams and Geri Halliwell started dating in 2000 while performing as solo artists. This came after Robbie departed from Take That in the mid-90s and Geri’s exit from the Spice Girls in 1998.
According to Daily Mail, the pair began dating during the time he was going to Alcoholics Anonymous. The report also stated that Williams was warned about starting a relationship with anyone during that time. However, he didn’t care about anything and continued with it. Their relationship became stronger with time and even went on holiday together to the south of France.
Talking about his relationship with Halliwell, Robbie Williams reportedly expressed that spending time with Geri was “very easy.” He added, “I just found her company very, very easy. There was a silliness. We got on well. It was fun.” However, things took a turn for the worse when the paparazzi started following the pair constantly.
According to Metro, Robbie supposedly mentioned that photographers would arrive at locations ahead of the couple, turning their private moments into “public property.” One of the photographers informed him that Halliwell was providing information about their relationship, which was when he decided to end everything with Halliwell. Although their relationship ended due to a misunderstanding, Robbie Williams now understands that Halliwell never engaged in such behavior.
