Robbie Williams selling £24m mega mansion to move back to the UK after getting rid of three houses in four months
POP star Robbie Williams is quitting Switzerland and planning to move his family back to the UK for good after getting “bored” of the Alpine lifestyle.
The former Take That man, 48, is selling the £24million mansion he shares with wife Ayda and their four children Teddy, nine, Charlton, seven, Coco, three, and Beau, two.
The family are planning on moving into the £17million sprawling house they own in London which used to belong to director Michael Winner.
A source said: “Robbie and Ayda have loved living in Switzerland the last few years, and the tranquility was a god-send during the pandemic.
“But they’ve decided they want to mix it up a bit and have a different pace of life for a bit. So they’re heading back to London.
“They’ve done quite a lot of work to it, and with the housing market on the up they reckon they’re going to make a fortune on it.”

The move comes after we told how Robbie had referred to him and his brood as “homeless” after they flogged all of their properties, including their £6.75m ‘mega mansion’ in Compton Bassett.
They are believed to have sold their £37million California mansion to rapper Drake.
But The Sun understands they’ve quietly kept one home in Beverly Hills, as well as their London pile despite his homeless claims.
He said: “We’re actually nowhere. We haven’t got an abode right now, we’ve pretty much sold everywhere, we don’t live anywhere and we’re trying to figure it out.

“The four kids are constantly a Rubick's Cube puzzle that we’re trying to sort out because if they are schooled then they don’t see me because I’m all over the place and if they are home-schooled then they have another set of things that are a problem.
“We are all just trying to figure it out.”
Robbie had previously spent a six figure sum on the Swiss property, on the shores of Lake Geneva, to move in Ayda’s mum Gwen who is in poor health.
Gwen and husband Ian had been staying in a guest-room inside the £24 million villa but the Let Me Entertain You Singer had an outhouse converted into a luxury home for the former film director.
The couple moved to the Swiss mountains in 2020 amid the global pandemic, and six months later splashed out on their villa.

Despite their close relationship, the Williams clan didn’t see Ayda’s beloved mum Gwen for eight months as she was forced to isolate due to health issues including cancer, Parkinsons and Lupus.
She isolated with her partner at Rob and Ayda’s USA home in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, until they were reunited in early May.
