They were said to be planning a reunion for the 30th anniversary of the band, in the year 2020.

But Take That star Robbie Williams has insisted that it's 'not in anyone's diaries' for a further five years, as he confirmed that he would be up for taking part.

Suggesting that a full five piece would be the ideal way to get the band back on stage, the 43-year-old Brit performer revealed that his daughter Teddy is already planning to follow him into showbusiness.

He's in! Robbie Williams has warned that a reunion for Take That may be five years away, but says he'll be up for it when it comes around

‘I’m in if it’s a five piece,' Robbie told OK! magazine this week, about the prospect of getting back together with Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald.

He continued: 'I’d probably be in even if it isn’t, but that being said, that’s not on any calendar for the next five years.’

Robbie went on to have great solo success while the band continued as a four-piece, briefly reuniting with the band over the years for stage performances.

After Jason Orange departed in September 2014, but Howard, Mark and Gary went on performing as a trio.

But Gary revealed in May: 'We’re planning something to do for the 30-year all together.

'We’re looking that far ahead, something big, maybe a new record, maybe a greatest hits with a big tour.'

He went on to say that Rob's commitment to reuniting would not be a 'long-term' project.

It seems Robbie also has his five-year-old daughter pegged for stardom, saying she was born with 'jazz hands'.

‘Ted is a performer,' he told OK! 'She came out the womb with jazz hands! She should be doing stuff already because she is just naturally inclined to be a performer and I’m happy about that.

'It’s a good job and it’s a nice life and hopefully I can help her avoid the pitfalls that I fell down.’

During a Loose Women panel two weeks ago, Ayda confessed to the panel how her two children with Robbie were conceived.

Comparing the circumstances to cocktail names, she joked of daughter Theodora, 5, and son Charlton, 3: 'Teddy was passion on the rocks and Charlie was happy 40th birthday babe!'.

Her appearance comes after she took a break from the panel to look after husband of seven years Robbie.

'Robbie was very ill but he's back,' she said. 'He's embraced a plant based lifestyle and does yoga- he's like the girl I want to be.

'We were inspired by a plant based documentary so we went to shake shack for one last burger and that was it!' she told a surprised panel.

Robbie and Ayda got married in 2010, after being introduced by a mutual pal in LA.

Earlier this year the former Take That star recalled that while he looked her up online and found her attractive, but his life on pills left him antisocial.

In preparation for their fateful meeting, which finally occurred after Robbie flaked on their date, he recalled to The Sun: 'A dealer had come round that I was sleeping with and she’d given me all these pills. So I’d slept with the dealer, taken a bunch of pills.'

American Ayda then arrived at Robbie's house from a party and, sensing that she was uncomfortable with the situation, he decided to escort her back to the bash.

He said of the gathering: 'It’s a tech party with tech people. It was like Revenge of the Nerds. So I got tucked into a lot of drugs. Anyway, I took a turn for the worse, because I started to cluck like a chicken.

'There was a moment in the Jacuzzi where Ayda had gone and got changed and she came in wearing this Ursula Andress bikini, and she had a killer body. So I was in the Jacuzzi with a very, very hot girl in Hollywood doing a Hollywood thing. But then I got ill, started to cluck, had to leave, embarrassingly.'

Despite Robbie's erratic display on the night, Ayda went with him, and remained by his side for three weeks. The couple dated on and off before eventually tying the knot at his Beverly Hills home in August 2010.

They are now the proud parents of daughter Theodora Rose, five, and son Charlton Valentine, two. Robbie and Ayda have since moved from the US to London.
