Decisions, decisions... This morning on Radio 2 Robbie Williams asked Chris Evans for advice concerning the possibility his wife Ayda Field go go into labour when he's away from home doing a show

Dilemma: Robbie Williams is expecting his first child with his wife Ayda Field any day now

The father-to-be revealed the drama today (Monday) as he promoted new single Candy on radio stations all over central London.

Asking the popular host for some advice, Robbie started: 'I've had a bit of a falling out with the wife.
He continued: 'So I've got gigs this week, the baby could come at any minute, the wife has said, "If I go into labour and you've got a gig in say Leeds or Dublin, you've got to cancel it and come home."
'I put it to you Chris Evans, I ask you, please tell me what I should do?'

Admitting that it wasn't long ago that he was in the exact same situation as Robbie, Evans told him to have a helicopter on standby in case his wife should go into labour during one of his shows away from home.
Paying no mind to the radio DJs advice Robbie continued: 'I'm going to pretend. This is what I'm going to tell her [Ayda] there is some helicopter behind the gig in Dublin, but that's expensive, so I'm not really going to do it.'
He added: 'I'm going to tell her that's there and then keep my fingers crossed.'
Sticking to the ethos that that show must go on, Williams argued his case as Chris warned him that the birth of his baby, and told him: 'She'll probably be overdue because it's her first ... However don't say there's anything standing by if that isn't standing by.'
Refusing to take note, the former Take That star said: 'I'm going to. I'm just going to lie'.

Fans who had been listening on, were quick to text in with their comments about Robbie's dilemma.
One wrote: 'Drop everything and go. Your fans will understand, I'm one, I am coming to the gig, it won't matter to me.'
Another one sent a message that read, in capital letters: 'Go to your wife Robbie'.
Joking he continued: 'I'm getting it. It's slowly coming to me.
Shocked by the response, Robbie said: 'Oooh - everyone seems to be very understanding.'
And after finding out live on air that he was insured for child birth if he did leave the show, he quickly changed his tune: 'Wherever I am, I'm sorry I've got to to leave that's cool - I'm sorted.'
