The new post hints that the band’s long-waited ninth studio album is finally in the works —an eagerly awaited release following a six-year hiatus since their last album, Wonderland, in 2018.

One devoted fan implored, “Enough with the teasing [sad face emoji], let’s bring happiness to this old soul… Announce some UK tour dates.”

Another fan, brimming with excitement, exclaimed, “Oh my goodness, this is the finest Friday surprise a girl could ever wish for! The excitement is immeasurable! Overjoyed to witness all of you together once more.”

Mark Owen and Robbie Williams perform together at Sandringham concert

In a delightful turn of events, Mark Owen recently reunited with former Take That member Robbie Williams for a series of performances at Sandringham House in Norfolk last weekend (August 26).

Mark had the honour of opening for Robbie, 49, in front of a capacity crowd of 20,000 fans.

Fans were overjoyed when Robbie invited Mark to join him onstage for a medley of Take That classics, and even more delighted when Robbie’s wife Ayda Williams shared a backstage video of Mark and Robbie singing an acoustic version of ‘Greatest Day’.

The concert was the final stop of Robbie’s XXV tour, which has marked the quarter of a century since the ‘Angels’ singer departed Take That and became a solo superstar.
