Take That’s Mark Owen has pledged to do all he can to help former bandmate Robbie Williams during his time in rehab.

Robbie’s decision seek treatment last week was mocked by Russell Brand and Liam Gallagher at the Brit Awards on Wednesday and while Take That didn’t mention Robbie in their acceptance speech, Mark has admitted the digs make him unhappy.

He told Reveal magazine: “I felt bad at the Brits because there were some jokes said about Robbie that made it look like he was being mocked.”

“When I heard about him checking into rehab I felt really sad - I just want him to get happy again.”

“I’ll do anything I can to help him. If he wants me to see him, I’ll be straight on that plane.”

“Me and Rob went through a period when we didn’t speak, but then he got in touch. Rob was always my mate and I always felt very close to him. I’m so worried about him.”

“I’m gutted and devastated things have ended up like this. I think he should come back to the UK.”
