ROBBIE Williams has revealed the heartbreaking text he received from his actress daughter Teddy at 2am.

Robbie, 51, who shares 13-year-old Teddy with his wife Ayda Field, has opened about his teenager’s torment over the future.

Teddy is following her dad into the world of showbiz, and has already started making waves as an actress, which includes starring in a Hollywood movie.

However, now the teen has set her sights on being a singer, just like her dad Robbie.

Teddy’s famous father has had huge success after starting out in boyband Take That, and then going onto sell hundreds of millions of records worldwide as a solo artist.

But Robbie has revealed that his teenage daughter has put tremendous pressure on herself to follow in his footsteps and achieve the same kind of success as a singer.

Opening up to Scott Mills on Radio 2, he talked about Teddy’s dream of becoming famous like him.

“Ted in particular is so desperate for it,” Robbie revealed.

“Now, when I was growing up in Stoke-on Trent, I was also incredibly desperate for it, whatever it was, you know, watching Top Of The Pops on Thursday and thinking, how the hell do I get in that box in the corner of this room and be one of those people?

“But I’ve never seen it so acute as I do with Ted. She sent me a text the other day. And it goes, let me get this.

“It says – this was Thursday, six minutes past two in the morning, ‘Dad, what if I’m not a singer? It’s my biggest fear not to be a singer.’ Biggest capital letters. ‘What if I’m nothing?’”

Robbie then jokingly added: “And I was like, ‘babe, you’re a nepo. You’ll be fine!’”

Turning serious again, the star said: “The only thing that worries me about it is, she’s incredibly sensitive. I am painfully, painfully sensitive.

“In some quarters it would be deemed as being oversensitive. She is worse than me. And I’m worried about what words will do to her.

“For me, it was either this or stacking shelves at ASDA – so this, every single day and for Ted, she’s got options.”

MOVIE DEBUT

Robbie’s daughter Teddy recently made her acting debut in Rebel Wilson and Danny Dyer film, Tinsel Town.

The Christmas movie features Teddy as the daughter of actress Rebel’s character Jill.

The teenager was seen at the premiere of the movie in November with her proud parents.

The teenager was all smiles as she stepped out on the red carpet with dad Robbie and mum Ayda.

It was revealed last February that Teddy was making her movie debut in Tinsel Town after being spotted filming alongside Rebel and Danny.

A source told The Sun at the time: “Teddy was born to be a star – after all, her parents are both the ultimate performers.

“Robbie and Ayda have been keen to keep her out of the spotlight for as long as possible though – obscuring her face on social media etc – so this is all very much being driven by Teddy who’s wanted to be on stage since she was old enough to talk!

“It’s a small part but obviously is super-exciting, and everyone is really proud of her.

“She’s an absolutely lovely girl on and off screen, and has fitted in seamlessly into on-set life.”

As well as Teddy, Robbie and Ayda are also parents to children Charlton (Charlie), Colette (Coco) and Beau.

The high-profile couple have consciously kept their children away from the public eye for most of their lives.

Loose Women panellist Ayda previously said: “We never show their faces, it’s really important to us.

“We’re really proud and we want to share absolutely everything but there’s a law in this country that means they can’t put pictures up of kids in the papers unless you’re posting their faces.”

ACTRESS Keira Knightley says she almost ditched now-husband James Righton because he ate only cheese on toast.

The Love Actually star had to give the Klaxons singer, 42, an ultimatum.

Keira, 40, said: “He just couldn’t cook — all he ate was cheese on toast.

“I was like, ‘This is not going to work’. He wouldn’t even go out for dinner. He didn’t understand going to restaurants. He was bizarre.”

Keira said she managed to persuade him to test dishes with his eyes shut.

She added: “My oldest friend is a proper old-school bon viveur, we basically trained him.

“We took him out to restaurants and he wouldn’t try anything. He was like a child. He used to shut his eyes, and we’d be like, ‘Try it, try it!’.”

Keira, who wed James in 2013, told the Dish podcast: “He’d be like ‘OK, it’s nice, it’s nice!’.”

Knightley revealed earlier this month that she has only watched her Christmas classic film Love Actually once — and has forgotten all her lines, she says.

The Brit says she is unable to recall them when asked by fans of the hit 2003 romcom because she has a “delete button” in her head.

She was only 17 when she starred as newlywed Juliet who discovers her husband’s best pal Mark, played by Andrew Lincoln, is secretly in love with her.

The story revolves around his crush and in one scene he confesses his feelings using cue cards on her doorstep.

Ultimately, she stays with her new husband Peter, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor.

Residents of Saint-Tropez paid tribute to French film icon Brigitte Bardot on Monday outside her home, a day after the actress died at the age of 91. The actress-turned-far-right agitator will be buried in a seaside cemetery near the southern town, local officials said.

The academy has recognized “One Battle After Another” filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson’s prodigious talents with plenty of nominations over the years. But Oscar voters seem to have been waiting for frogs to rain from the sky to give him an award. The most successful film of his career could change that.

11

Anderson’s nominations total so far includes five for writing, three for directing and three for best picture, all without winning.

2-for-8

Anderson’s rough contemporary and fellow Angeleno, Quentin Tarantino, has received fewer nominations but won twice, both for writing.

28

Years between Anderson’s first nomination, for writing “Boogie Nights,” and finally winning an Oscar, if he does, in March.

26

Years between Martin Scorsese’s first nomination, for directing “Raging Bull,” and finally winning an Oscar, for directing “The Departed.”

3

Anderson’s directing, writing and best picture nominations for 2021’s “Licorice Pizza” suggest the academy understands he is overdue.

3/15/26

Anderson winning for “One Battle After Another” would not be a “makeup” victory but that rare instance of justice arriving via a career-highlight film.

9

Only nine performances from Anderson’s movies have been nominated to date, a total that fails to reflect his gifts as a director of actors (or love of ensemble casts).

1

Of those nine, only Daniel Day-Lewis won, for his lead performance in “There Will Be Blood.”

3

Cinematographer Robert Elswit’s statuette for “There Will Be Blood” and costume designer Mark Bridges’ prize for “Phantom Thread” bring the Oscar total for Anderson’s movies to three.

6

Leonardo DiCaprio (lead actor), Sean Penn (supporting actor) and Teyana Taylor (supporting actress), at least, look like locks for acting nominations for “One Battle After Another,” with Chase Infiniti (lead actress), Benicio Del Toro (supporting actor) and Regina Hall (supporting actress) also contenders.
