Robbie Williams has reportedly tested positive for coronavirus and is not quarantining in the Caribbean, where he is on holiday with his family.
The singer flew to St Barts in the Caribbean on December 28 for a New Year holiday with his wife Ayda Field and their four kids.
But, according to The Sun, he has tested positive for Covid-19, meaning they have been forced to extend their stay so he can self-isolate.
The family is reportedly staying in a £106,000-a-week villa.
A source told the publication: “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.”

Daily Star has contacted a rep for Robbie for comment.
Robbie and Ayda are parents to Teddy, eight, Charlton, six, Colette, two, and one-year-old Beau.
The 46-year-old had been in London earlier in December, as he performed on both the Strictly Come Dancing finale and The Jonathan Ross Show.
Meanwhile, Ayda spoke to the Loose Women via video call over Christmas.

Before then, though, Robbie went to extreme measures to try and avoid the pandemic, moving to the remote wilderness to stay as safe as he could.
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?'”
Adding: “That’s social distancing in the extreme isn’t it?”

Earlier last year, Robbie revealed he had gone back to a plant-based diet after doctors told him he had a seriously high mercury reading.
In November, a source told Daily Star: “His recent check-up returned the highest mercury poisoning levels his doctor had ever seen.
“Rob guesses it was from fish but as a result he’s now gone back to being plant based again.”
And it seems his memory may be fading, as he admitted he needs a prompter for his own lyrics.
Speaking on his podcast with Slade star Noddy Holder, Robbie made his surprising confession.
He told the Merry Xmas Everybody icon: “At some point I just stopped being able to retain the information about the lyrics in my songs.
“Even things like Angels and the big ones like Let Me Entertain You. I need an autocue now because I can’t remember anything any more.”
But Noddy, 74, admitted he never had that issue, telling the former Take That singer: “I never got to that stage, no. I could always remember them.”
