Robbie Williams' secret 'honeymoon'

Robbie Williams and Ayda Field went on a secret 'honeymoon' - before they got married.

The couple jetted off to the Spanish island of Mallorca to spend a week at the £1,040-a-night Hotel La Residencia in Deia before tying the knot in an intimate ceremony at their Beverly Hills home on August 7.

A source close to the couple said: "Robbie loves Mallorca. He's been quite a few times and feels at home there.

"His schedule is really packed at the moment, so finding the time to get away for a traditional honeymoon was never going to be easy."

Despite taking their holiday before their wedding in a bid to retain their privacy, Robbie, 36, was spotted serenading the 31-year-old actress in the hotel bar and they happily dined in the building's restaurant with other guests.

The insider added to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Their pre-wedding break - or honey-half-moon as pals have dubbed it - was super romantic.

"Robbie was a real softie. He kept surprising Ayda with flowers, small gifts and notes the entire time.

"They dined in the hotel's El Olivo restaurant but Robbie, who doesn't drink any more, shunned the extensive wine list and stuck to mineral water.

"On one evening he serenaded Ayda in front of other guests - and got a standing ovation."

The couple are also expected to take a break in the English seaside town of Blackpool next month, when the 'Angels' hitmaker is scheduled to switch on the resort's famous illuminations.
