According to the April 13 edition of The Daily Mail, Kevin Kinsella said: “It was clear to me that he is gay. I think Robbie has the same problems as [television entertainer] Michael Barrymore. They know they are gay, they know what they want to do. But they are controlled by parameters which say that you can’t come out and say you are gay because it will affect your career and sales, and people may not love you. So what happens is that these demons inside of them come out in drink and dmgs.” Kinsella made the remarks in a docu mentary on Williams’ rise to fame with the boy hand Take That.

Saudi Arabia’s representative called same- sex marriage a “great evil,” according to The Los Angeles Times. The Vatican’s representative said same-sex unions “subvert” the institutions of marriage and the family. A spokeswoman for Annan said he is not going to change his mind.
