Robbie Williams EXCLUSIVE: Singer admits he contemplated suicide while ‘doing a lot of coke’ and living in a house that gave him ‘bad energy’
Robbie Williams has revealed that he contemplated suicide at a time in his life when he was ‘doing a lot of coke.’
Speaking on Jo Woods’ Alien Nation podcast, the singer, 45, candidly spoke about his battle with mental health and substance abuse while living in a ‘dark’ house in Primrose Hill, North London with an ex-girlfriend.
Robbie claimed he would ‘always hear footsteps which got progressively worse’ prompting him to flee in terror and insist he ‘would have to kill himself’ if forced to return.

Speaking of the house Robbie explained: ‘Instantly I picked up on it being weird and dark and having an energy. The first time it manifested itself as something physical the ghetto blaster came on.
‘I was doing a lot of coke at the time. I would be in the house but hear footsteps go up the stairs. It got progressively worse. She (ex-girlfriend) thought it was her granddad.
‘I would get in the car and whatever it was would jump in the backseat. Two months in, I couldn’t deal with it any more. I thought if this stays with me I was going to commit suicide.’
Admitting that he was at the end of his tether, Robbie explained: ‘I got up one day, and there was a dark mist at the end of my bed. I was too scared to go and brush my teeth as I would have to walk through this mist.

He then explained that he later found out the house was built atop a Black Death burial site.

‘We have got this house that is a thousand years old, in Wiltshire. Teddy’s room in particular is weird. We have moved her out of it now,’ he explained.
