Robbie Williams has admitted to smoking cannabis recently.

The singer has undergone visits to rehab in the past but he told the Mirror that he sometimes uses the drug to relax.

The 'Take The Crown' man also confirmed that he is still teetotal as he continues to take care of his new baby, who was born in September last year. Williams said:

"Since the birth of [new baby] Theo I’ve become less reckless. I last drank 13 years ago, the last time I got high was two days ago. No big drug sessions, mind, just a small amount, purely to relax. I’m allowed to go crazy once in a while, just as long as I don’t lose control. I have to be there to take care of my daughter, right? That is the good thing – by putting responsibility on my shoulders she is also taking care of me."

He added: "She’s only one now and can stand a little bit. She takes about three steps and then decides she prefers crawling. Thanks to her there is always laughter in the house. Only this morning we were dancing together when I played 90s rap and house. She has great rhythm."

One of Williams' last trips to rehab in 2007 saw the singer treated for addiction to prescription pills Xanax, Seroxat and Vicodin.
