Robbie Williams: “I Had This F***ed Up Feeling That I Was Immortal”

Singer Robbie Williams says it took nearly dying to change the way he lives.

The former Take That star “knows how lucky I am” after a health scare left him close to death in 2017. Williams became seriously ill while backstage at a stadium gig in Zurich and spent seven days in intensive care after doctors discovered “abnormalities” on his brain, reports thesun.co.uk.

He said: “I’ve refocused my life and all the extremities in it. It’s probably why I am on such good form today. It takes nearly dying for someone like me to change the way they live.

“I’ve always thought I was protected and I’ve gone out of my way to test that hypothesis. Like a cat, I’ve had a billion lives. But this was the closest and scariest. I also had this f***ed up feeling that I was immortal. But all is okay with my brain now.”
