Ayda Field had concerns about Robbie Williams when they first met

Ayda Field has revealed she had concerns about her husband Robbie Williams when they met.

The duo were first introduced to each other just two weeks before the star entered rehab.

And now the pair have discussed their first impressions when talking on Loose Women.

The father-of-three said: ‘I met Ayda two weeks before going to rehab and it still didn’t put her off! You are mental, you really rolled the dice there babes.’

However, the actress insisted she followed her heart, and ignored the warning signs.

‘I didn’t know what I was getting into,’ she confessed: ‘There were warning signs dancing over his head, but I was like, “I think I love him.”’

As the crowd cooed, the star continued: ‘If you love someone you go with your heart and I went with all the crazy mess that went with him.’

Robbie was on the show to promote his new Christmas album and said he can finally enjoy the festive season after overcoming his demons.

‘I had to stop boozing and then Christmas became a symbol of what’s wrong with your life,’ he explained.

‘Everything is on TV going, “hey you should be loving and family is great’ and it made me feel worse. But then came Ayda.’

Beaming down the lens, he said: ‘She’s like a professional memory maker, she makes anniversaries incredible and we get lost in festive joy because of this lady.

‘Christmas was phenomenal before the kids, but then the kids made it sensational.’

When the show started the singer forgot he was live on air and ended up walking into the ITV studio to see his wife.

Looking confused, the guest panelist quizzed him over what he was doing to which Robbie laughed: ‘What we’re not live are we?’

When the hosts nodded, the Angels hitmaker quickly ran away as Ayda shouted: ‘Oh bless him, bless him!’

But his faux pas was soon explained, as he arrived back on stage for his slot.

Taking a seat, the 45-year-old said: ‘I thought you were speaking to Phil and Holly and then people looked worried and I was like, “You can’t stop me from speaking to my wife!”’

Looking at the audience, he shrugged: ‘Soz everybody.’
