ROBBIE Williams says marriage has made him pile on the pounds because instead of sleeping around, he now spends his time eating junk food with his wife.

The former Take That star, 43, married to US actress Ayda Field, 38, says he has swapped wild partying and having “sex with strangers” for staying in and gorging on food.

Robbie, dad to Theodora, four, and twoyear-old Charlton, said: “It’s interestin­g, having a wife now and being the guy that I was. The sort of faders you have to turn up and down.

“It’s like there’s the sex-with-strangers fader, turn that one down. Which one can we turn up? Cake. More cake and carbohydra­tes.”

The Angels singer revealed last month that he suffers from nocturnal sleep-related eating disorder, which means he raids the fridge at night. He said: “I’m doing this very weird thing, for over a year now, where I night eat. I am absolutely asleep and I get up and eat. I’m not aware I’m doing it. “And, apparently, in my sleep I don’t want kale – I want sugar, and loads of it. It leaves me not a lot of room for [eating] bad stuff during the day because bad stuff happens at night when I am asleep.” Robbie, who joined Take That at the age of 16, in 1990, also defended singer and teen idol Justin Bieber, 23, who has been criticised for cancelling dates on his world tour. He said: “I just want to give Justin Bieber some love. I was that soldier. “I know what it feels like to be 22 and 23 and the world pointing fingers at you, telling you that you’re a bad person.”
