Diseases during a tour are not uncommon, he says – in this case, however, several stressful factors would come together. “With my parents at home? Very precarious at the moment,” said the 50-year-old. “These are real things that affect me and my wife deeply. And if it affects them, then me too.”
It is about family stress
His mother Janet was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in November 2024 and no longer recognizes her son. His father Pete has Parkinson’s, can hardly leave the house. In the past, he was still on stage at Williams’ shows that this was no longer possible today.
Ayda, the singer’s wife, with whom he has been married since 2010, also has to fight in a family. Your mother Gwen is seriously ill. Cervical cancer, lupus, Parkinson’s. “She is the bravest woman and fights, fights, fights,” writes Williams. Despite all the stress, the Brit is on stage every evening, most recently in Leipzig, Vienna and Trieste. Now Berlin is on the plan.
