Robbie Williams says he has been diagnosed with autism

Robbie Williams has said he has been diagnosed with autism, according to NME. The pop star shared the news during a recent Q&A in London.

Williams, who has previously spoken about living with ADHD, said the diagnosis helped explain a lot about his behavior and thought patterns. He described it as something that makes sense of many of the things he has struggled with.

During the discussion, he also talked about how his ADHD affects his focus and said he is especially drawn to creating images and making funny things. Williams has long been open about anxiety, depression and intrusive thoughts as well.

In 2024, Williams told NME that being neurodivergent and on the spectrum can affect how he picks up on social cues. He also recently released his album Britpop, which reached No. 1 in the UK.
