Robbie Williams is quarantining in the Caribbean after testing positive for COVID-19 while on holiday with his family.

The singer, 46, flew to St Barts with wife Ayda Field and their four children on December 28 for a family getaway, The Sun reports.

But a COVID diagnosis forced him to self-isolate, extending their stay in their $186,000-a-week villa.

A source told The Sun: “Robbie’s been fairly sick. He’s confined to the villa where he is staying with his family. It’s not exactly the worst place in the world to be quarantined, although he cannot go to the beach. He will have to remain in quarantine for up to 14 days.”

The ex-Take That singer, 46, was pictured earlier this month wearing a mask for a boat trip on the island.

Williams had been in London earlier last month – performing on the Strictly final and ITV’s The Jonathan Ross Show.

His actress wife Ayda, 41, also did a Christmas video call to UK panel show Loose Women.

They then flew to St Barts with children Teddy, 8, Charlton, 6, Colette, 2, and Beau, 1.

Last year, Williams revealed he was living on a mountain to avoid getting COVID.

He told the BBC: “I’m somewhere in Switzerland up a mountain. I’m a bit neurotic and I thought, ‘Where can I place myself where it won’t get me?’”

He added: “That’s social distancing in the extreme isn’t it?”

Williams’ reps declined to comment last night.
