According to The Mirror, Robbie openly stated in the documentary that it was the happiest he had been in ten years, but his paranoia got the better of him.

Rumours emerged that Geri was calling the paparazzi on the pair of them whilst they were trying to enjoy their time together, and Robbie said he believed them at the time.
When discussing the rumours, Robbie said he spoke to a paparazzi who blamed Geri, saying: ‘Now I don’t think that’s true for one second, but at the time I did believe it. It just goes to show what being in the spotlight can do to your psyche, when you can’t trust anybody.’
The documentary covers an array of Robbie’s relationships including All Saints singer Nicole Appleton.
The couple were engaged twice however Robbie recalled the relationship as a ‘child talking to his mum.’
The documentary is a deep dive into the former Take That singer’s career, all the trials and tribulations plus his relationship with drugs and alcohol.
