		</div><p>Robbie Williams has revealed his father has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.</p>
<p>The singer, 46, is isolating at his home in Los Angeles with wife Ayda Field and their four children.</p>
<p>Williams said he has been experiencing “<i>fear and panic</i>” while his 70-year-old father is in the UK.</p>
<p>He told the Mirror: “<i>We’ve got a lot of family issues right now. My dad has got Parkinson’s, my mother-in-law who I love dearly has got a very big illness. We can’t get to them. My dad is thousands of miles away.</i>”</p>
<p>Williams added: “<i>My mum is just a year short of 80 and she’s in isolation and I can see the things whirling in her mind and her eyes going.</i>”</p>
<p>The X Factor judge, who has been open about his mental health struggles, said he has learned to deal with his problems in a healthier way.</p>
<p>He said: “<i>I noticed at the start of the lockdown that I was going into fear.</i></p>
<p><i>But the difference between me now and the person I used to be… I saw it, thought ‘That’s interesting – tomorrow will be different’. And it was.</i>”</p>
<p>Former Take That star Williams has often been joined on stage by his father Peter, who is also a singer.</p>
<p>Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects a sufferer’s movement, often including tremors.</p>
<p>According to the NHS, it is thought around 1 in 500 people are affected by Parkinson’s disease.</p>
<p>Most people with Parkinson’s start to develop symptoms when they are over 50, though many first experience symptoms before the age of 40.</p>
<p>Men are slightly more likely to get the illness than women.</p>
