Brief encounter at pad

X FACTOR judge needs “positive thinking” to survive her marriage to

I’m not surprised, seeing as the Rob-meister, 44, insists on walking around their LA pad in his underpants.

When asked if she had to “dig deep”, Ayda says: “God, in every single area of my life. In my relationship with Rob, when things were not going well.

“Every corner of my life there’s an ‘I can’t’ then an ‘I can’ moment. The more I tap into knowledge I can, the better I become at these things.”

Loose Women panellist Ayda, 39, and Take That singer Robbie married in 2010 after four years together. They have three children.

Ayda recently revealed he broke her heart before they were married by splitting up with her three times. Now the pressure is on with the live shows, could there be a fourth tot?

Can you or can’t you handle it, Ayda? Flashing bod
