Robbie Williams' new Netflix documentary, where he reflects on key moments and relationships in his life, including a "magical" romance with Geri Halliwell. In the summer of 2000, after his time in rehab, Williams had a significant relationship with Halliwell that he describes as the happiest time in a decade. They spent a holiday together in the South of France, a time he now characterizes as magical and fun.
Williams also mentions that the relationship started when he was attending AA meetings, and despite advice against starting relationships in the first year of sobriety, he found Halliwell's company very easy and enjoyable. The documentary includes footage of the two sharing close moments, but Williams notes that paranoia about the paparazzi—fueled by rumors that Halliwell might have been alerting them—tainted the memory of that time.
The documentary covers his career, his struggles with addiction, mental health, and the pressure of fame, including his relationship with Nicole Appleton. It ends on a positive note, showing Williams in a much happier phase of his life as a father of four, married to his wife Ayda since 2010. He reflects on his journey, noting the growth and happiness he has achieved, and calls the making of the documentary cathartic.
The Robbie Williams documentary is set to be released on Netflix on November 8.
