Biography

Identity

Charlton Valentine Williams, known as Charlie, is the second child of Robbie Williams and Ayda Field. He is their first son, and the second of their four children.

Birth

Charlie was born on 27 October 2014. Williams publicly revealed his son’s name and shared news of his arrival through an online video posted shortly after the birth, following a similar approach to announcing family milestones while avoiding extensive press activity.

Place in the family

Charlie’s older sister is Teddy Williams (Theodora Rose). He has two younger siblings, Coco Williams (Colette Josephine) and Beau Williams (Beau Benedict Enthoven). Coco and Beau were born via surrogate, a detail Williams and Field confirmed when announcing those births.

Public visibility

Williams and Field have largely kept Charlie out of the public spotlight. Unlike the occasional formal appearances made by other celebrity children, there have been comparatively few public events or media moments centred on him, and his parents have generally chosen not to share detailed information about his schooling or day to day life.

Context

Charlie’s birth came during a period when Williams was increasingly open about family life as a stabilising influence. While his parents have sometimes discussed parenthood in interviews, they have tended to speak in general terms, maintaining privacy around Charlie’s personal life and limiting the amount of identifiable detail published about him.
