Robbie may reunite with Take That

Wednesday, August 08, 2007
English singer Robbie Williams has hinted that he may join his former 'Take That' band when they begin their reunion tour. The 'Angels' star had earlier turned down requests to join the band.

It has been learnt that Mark Owen had brokered a top-secret meeting between old rivals Gary Barlow and Williams. The three are said to have discussed their reunion over dinner at the posh Chateau Marmont Hotel in Los Angeles.

"There was no atmosphere between them. Robbie seemed dead chuffed they were there, and gave them both a big hug. The three of them were then deep in conversation all night," The Mirror quoted a fellow diner, as saying.

Sources say that since Williams' career is currently experiencing a freefall, and he is expected to seriously ponder over his former bandmates offer to get back together.

"Since Take That split in 1995, Robbie enjoyed the lion's share of fame and success. But lately, things have taken a downward spiral for him while Take That's star has risen again. Robbie will not take any decision lightly, but all indications are that he's seriously considering their offer this time around," said a source.

"Rebuilding his relationship with Gary is an important step in making this happen. Mark was delighted that the two could come together around a table," the source added.
