Robbie Williams Live Tweets Wife's Labour

Robbie Williams and his wife Ayda Field have welcomed their second child together.

The couple first revealed their pregnancy news in April but earlier this week, the former Take That singer announced his wife had gone into labour. He then decided to keep his fans updated on events – by live tweeting various moments.

Field, who was in labour for over 24 hours, and Williams both appeared in a number of photos and humorous videos which the singer posted to Twitter and his official YouTube account on Monday.

Williams, 40, started by tweeting a photo of his wife's shoes – a pair of red, stiletto heels, with the caption: "When Ayda goes into labour she comes correct ;) RW x (sic).

He then decided to offer essential "help" to his partner – by dancing and miming to his 2012 hit 'Candy', however when his wife doesn't seem to be amused, he cuts the music and accuses her of being "no fun".

More images were shared of Field looking tired, but with Williams standing over her, saying: "It's ok, I've totally got this", while another showed both parents-to-be taking a well-deserved nap.

Another video shows Field gingerly dancing around their private room as she awaits the arrival of her son, while one of the final videos to be shared by the singer was taken just before their newborn arrived. Here, Williams gave a rendition of 'Let It Go', from Disney's animated movie Frozen.

Speaking after the birth, Williams, 40, said: "He's here... way over 24 hours now. I've never been more in love, and I've never been more proud of my wife. She's been absolutely astonishing.

"Baby boy doesn't have a name yet... we're still figuring it out. He's 8 pounds 2 ounces. The universe has presented itself to us again and it's been a very emotional, amazing few hours and we're really happy and honoured that you experienced the journey with us."

He added: "We started out with the idea of the shoes and then it just snowballed from there. Of course everything we have done has been a bit of a laugh and it's helped Ayda take her mind off the pain.

"I hope we made you laugh in the process and it's made the whole experience really magical. No Mummies were upset or harmed in the making of these videos."

Williams and Field married in 2010 and are already parents to two-year-old daughter, Theodora 'Teddy' Rose.
