as he marks 50th birthday with bash
Robbie Williams has turned 50 — the baby-faced star of Take That is all grown up. And here are some classic snaps of that amazing journey.
Robbie Williams at age 14, just a few years before he found fame. He already has a glint in his eye.
The cheeky chap was just 16 and the youngest member of Take That in 1990.
A string of girlfriends included All Saints singer Nicole Appleton, before he settled and had children with Ayda Field.
His huge solo career was mainly ups - but there were a few downs.
And the sex symbol won a battle with extra weight.
But now he's all grown up - with a wife and four children.
