Robbie William reveals he’s been suffering from mystery illness for a year
Robbie Williams recently caused a stir when he was pictured with a fuller face at an event in Germany in June with his wife Ayda Field.
Now 43-year-old singer has given an explanation for his changed appearance.
The star revealed that he has been suffering from Nocturnal Sleep-related Eating Disorder this past year and it has caused him to pile on the pounds.
"I've been doing this weird thing for about a year now, and I'm not aware that I'm doing it," he told the Daily Star.
“I am absolutely asleep and I get up, and I go and eat. I don’t do it on purpose - I’m not aware I’m doing it - but it happens.
"And in my sleep I don't want Kale. I want sugar and loads of it."
The former Take That star said even his mum has been poking fun of him because of his larger size.
"My mum said to me: 'Just lift your chin up a little bit because you're looking a bit double chinny.' So thanks mum!" he joked.
