Robbie Williams, 49, claims he’s going through ‘manopause’ as he battles ‘thinning hair’ and a ‘reduced sex drive’ due to ‘years of partying’

Robbie Williams claimed he is going through ‘manopause’ as he candidly discussed his health problems.

The former Take That singer, 49, revealed that years of partying have left him ‘bloody exhausted’ and battling ‘thinning hair’.

He told The sun: ‘The hair is thinning, the testosterone has left the building, the serotonin isn’t really there and the dopamine has long since said goodbye.

‘I have used up all the natural good things. I’m having manopause.’

Robbie and his wife Ayda Field have previously admitted that they almost never have sex.

He continued, “My daughter tells me, ‘Daddy is lazy.’ I don’t like the term “lazy” because that’s how I was described when I was younger.

“The reality is I’m just tired of what I did to myself in the 1990s and parts of the 2000s.”

Robbie previously blamed his lack of libido on stopping testosterone injections, which had worsened his depression.

In a joint interview, the two emphasized that they are “on the same page” when it comes to intimacy and that they are content with their lack of bedroom activity.

Robbie told The Sun: ‘Everyone knows there is no sex after marriage. That’s just the way it is. I used testosterone for a while, but because I am addicted it had to stop. I grew huge square shoulders and started to look like a doorman. It was not a good sight.

‘But the sex we had while I was on testosterone was incredible; it was all the time. We were insatiable. It shows how much we really care about each other, because when I was doing it, we couldn’t keep our hands off each other.

‘I miss that. That was a nice period. But now sometimes Ayda turns to me on the couch and says, ‘We need to have sex,’ and I sit there eating a tangerine and shrug my shoulders. So you know, sometimes we try.”

The 43-year-old actress, who married her pop star partner in 2010, concluded: ‘Intimacy is the important, meaningful side of love. Were happy.’

It comes after Robbie revealed his two stone weight loss is down to ‘something like Ozempic.’

The star admitted he went from 13 pounds to 12 pounds while taking an appetite suppressant.

Robbie – who is 6ft tall – also joked that he needs the drug because he has been diagnosed with ‘type 2 self-loathing’.

Robbie went beyond the humor and explained that being overweight is “shockingly catastrophic” for his mental health.

The pop star, who was once called ‘Blobby Williams’, described how mean his inner voice can be when he’s not slim.

Robbie told The Times : ‘Honey, I’m on Ozempic…Well, like Ozempic. It looks like a Christmas miracle. I went from 13st 13lb to 12st 1lb.

‘And I need it medically. I have been diagnosed with self-loathing type 2.

‘Being bigger is shockingly catastrophic for my mental health. My inner voice talks to me the way Katie Hopkins talks about fat people. It’s maddening.’

Robbie Williams reflected on his mental health struggles in the latest trailer for his upcoming Netflix docu-series.

Ahead of the release of the four-part show on November 8, which will combine never-before-seen footage of Robbie with new interviews.

The series coincides with the 25th anniversary of his solo career and provides an intimate look at his never-before-seen personal archive spanning 30 years.

In the new trailer, he started reflecting on his journey and career before opening up about how things started to get tough, resulting in a “nervous mental breakdown for thousands of people.”

Robbie – who shares Teddy, 10, Charlie, eight, Coco, four, and Beau, three, with wife Ayda – mused: ‘It’s amazing what’s happened in my life. But the past has a hold on me.

‘Something has to give. You should only do this at the pearly white gate with St. Peter, while you look back on your life.’

He added that he was thrust into the spotlight at a young age: ‘When I joined Take That at 16 it was crazy. I was the center of the pop culture world.

‘I felt like I was giving away more and more of myself, to the point where you no longer recognize yourself.

‘When you’re in the spotlight, you can’t trust anyone. I had a nervous breakdown in front of thousands of people.

‘What would have destroyed me has also made me successful. Touch the fire, push when it says ‘pull’ and see if I can live. I don’t know how easy it is for people to get to know me.’

Robbie has been very open about his ongoing battle with mental illness and his history of depression and anxiety. And when his fame reached an all-time high, the pop star hit rock bottom.

From 2006 to 2009, Williams battled agoraphobia. Social anxiety disorder left him housebound for three years.

He has previously revealed he went to rehab in 2007 after using speed, acid, heroin, cocaine and ‘heartbreaking’ amounts of prescription drugs.
