Take That hasn’t ruled out Jason Orange and Robbie Williams reunion

Take That star Mark Owen says there are no hard feelings between Jason Orange and the rest of the band and that the door is always open for him – and original bolter 42-year-old Robbie Williams, to come back for good.

‘We knew Robbie was coming to do the Progress album with us and we knew he was going to do the tour,’ said Mark, 42.

‘We always knew he was going to go back to his solo thing.

‘And again for any future tour that we do – the door is always open for when he wants to come back and it’s the same with Jason.

‘The door is always open for him and Robbie at any time.’

The band also revealed that they desperately tried to stop Orange walking out of the band by bribing him with five-star nights out and pretty women.

They jumped into action when they found his shock departure left vocal gaps in the band’s seventh album, which will be called ‘III’.

‘We would play Jason some of the music and he’d absolutely love it,’ Howard Donald said. ‘We’d take him out for five course meals.

‘We’d take him to clubs with loads of birds!’

He explained the lyrics reserved for 44-year-old Orange on III would now be shared out between him and Mark.

‘We obviously left that space whilst doing the record throughout the year for Jason’s voice to be in there,’ he said.


Take That’s new album is set for release on December 1.
