Exhausted Robbie Williams suddenly stops mid-concert only a few songs in

Robbie Williams was forced to pause his live show after only a few songs, saying he was 'f**ked'.

The pop star, 49, graced the stage at the Pinkpop music festival in The Netherlands over the weekend where he asked his band to stop the next song ‘Monsoon’.

Williams had just performed his third song of the land, a cover of the Wilson Pickett song ‘Land of 1000 Dances’ and he appeared to be out of breath as he prepared for the next song.

“No, stop, stop,” he said. “I’m f***ed. I’m f***ked.”

The chart-topping performer later told his fans in attendance he has long Covid. Symptoms may include fatigue, feeling short of breath, loss of smell and muscle aches, according to the NHS.

Recovery time for Covid-19 is different from everybody and some symptoms may improve faster and others may last longer.

“It’s long Covid, I’ve got long Covid. It’s not my f***ing age, you f***ers,” he joked.

We’re all rooting for you Robbie!

The ‘Candy’ singer was able to continue the performance eventually and finished his set by performing a further 16 songs, including his career-defining hits like ‘Rock DJ’, his Kylie Minogue collaboration ‘Kids’ and ‘Angels’.

Fans shared their well wishes on social media and praised Robbie for continuing with the show.

“Wishing Robbie Williams back to health from long Covid,” one fan shared. “Glad he shared that.”

Another supporter tweeted: “Robbie Williams is an icon and we need to respect his struggles with long Covid.”

Robbie discussed his Covid-19 diagnosis back in April 2020, with the dad-of-four - who is married to 40-year-old American actress Ayda Field - telling The Sun: "I could feel my body was getting lethargic and tired and heavy and I convinced myself I’d got coronavirus.

“I never normally do it but I got down on my knees and prayed. I thought about my wife and family,” he shared. “Within 30 seconds I had lifted my vibration and was in love.

“And you know what? The symptoms went away and the fear went away."

Later in the year, Robbie revealed he had relocated to the Swiss mountains to avoid coronavirus.

“I’m somewhere in Switzerland up a mountain,” he told the BBC Radio 2 in September 2020. “I’m a bit neurotic and I thought, ‘Where can I place myself where it won’t get me?’ That’s social distancing in the extreme isn’t it?”

Robbie has four children: daughters Theodora, six, and Colette, four, and sons Charlton, eight, and Beau, three.
