Robbie Williams shared a tender kiss with wife Ayda Field as she accompanied him to a private viewing party for his Radical Honesty solo art exhibition at London’s Moco Museum on Thursday.

The singer, 51, cut a casual figure in a denim jacket and matching jeans at the event celebrating his third exhibition of his art work. 

Robbie was supported by his loving wife Ayda, 45, who dressed to impress on the night in a multicoloured cropped jacket.

Ayda teamed her checked jacked with a white top and flared blue jeans, while boosting her height with a pair of silver platforms.

The couple appeared in great spirits as they mingled with art lovers inside while taking in Robbie’s artwork.

The exhibition also attracted a star-studded crowd, with famous faces including the likes of Leigh Francis, Louis Theroux and Ella Morgan in attendance. 

The exhibition’s host venue, the Moco Museum – which has branches in London, Amsterdam and Barcelona – shared a snap of Robbie as they promoted the art event.

It said: ‘In Radical Honesty, Robbie invites us to embrace the full spectrum of being human, from anxiety and self-doubt to self-love and mirror pep talks.’

It added the quote: ‘In a world obsessed with keeping it together, embracing the chaos might just be the most radical thing you can do.’

Robbie first swapped the microphone for a paintbrush back in 2022 with his debut exhibition. 

After making a dramatic career change, Robbie showcased his creative side by presenting black and white paintings he created with interior designer Ed Godrich at Sotheby’s New Bond Street galleries in April that year.

He showed off 14 of his stunning art creations at the exhibition, which was open to the public, while Robbie and Ed also auctioned off their painting Beverly, marking the first time they had sold one of their co-creations.

Speaking of his artwork at the time, Robbie said: ‘Art is really whatever you want it to be. Just like music it has the ability to soothe and provide company when you’re lonely.

‘Art and music have punctuated my ups and downs, but more importantly they both have the power to change how I feel in a moment.’

Robbie later admitted he’d given up ‘cocaine and strippers’ for ‘colouring in’ as he began to make money out of his lockdown hobby.

In an interview with The Times in 2022, Robbie revealed that part of the attraction to art was that it wasn’t music: ‘It used to be cocaine and strippers – now it’s colouring in’

He continued: ‘I’ve done the same thing now for 30 years — album, promo, tour,’ he then explained that art renaissance, however, ‘has led me to be a different person’

Meanwhile, despite snapping pH๏τos with fans at his art exhibition, last month Robbie opened up with his fans about how he really struggles being recognised and asked for selfies when out and about. 

The star took to Instagram as he recounted how he had been asked for multiple pH๏τos on a recent flight as he admitted requests for selfies cause him discomfort and panic.

The singer explained that while he can mask it well, he urged fans to consider what else could be going on for him in the moment as he made the point he is a normal man with a family. 

Discussing the flight he pointed out he had had little sleep and was trying to look after his four children, and one selfie would undoubtedly trigger more as it would alert people as to who he was. 

He explained that one fan had pᴀssed him a ‘lovely note’, praising his Netflix documentary that detailed his struggles with fame.

Robbie then decided to write back as he explained a selfie would cause his anxiety to ‘spike, because then the whole cabin would start wondering who I am’.

Revealing that more notes and requests for pH๏τos then followed he dived into a discussion on being a celebrity and the pressures that come with it.

He explained: ‘There’s a kind of unspoken law: as a celebrity, you should be accessible 24/7. 

‘Greet all strangers like you’re the mayor of the best town anyone’s ever visited. Make sure their wishes are met, whatever they are.’ 

Yet Robbie stressed that celebrities are normal humans like the rest of us as he added, many are ‘fans of fame, not necessarily of me’.

He wrote: ‘What I am saying is – let people be people. Humans struggling – like we all are – in one way or another.’ 

The star urged fans to give celebrities the ‘dignity of their privacy, their wants, their needs’, as he could be ‘on the phone with my mum, talking about her dementia or thinking about my dad’s Parkinson’s’.
