Robbie Williams has reunited with his girlfriend.
The 'Millennium' singer was reportedly bombarding Ayda Field with phone calls following their split last month, but when she refused to accept them, Robbie's best friend Jonathan Wilkes intervened.
A source revealed: "Robbie and Ayda are not fully back together but Jonathan's idea for them to meet in a relaxed group setting worked really well.
"It was obvious they still cared for one another so he decided to set up a day out with him and his son Mickey.
"It seemed an ideal way to dial down the emotion and give them both a chance to get reacquainted without too much pressure." However, Robbie, 34, and the 29-year-old actress still have some issues to resolve before their year-long romance is fully back on track.
The pair's relationship allegedly hit the rocks because Ayda wanted a partying lifestyle, whereas reclusive Robbie wanted to concentrate on getting his music career back on track, spotting UFOs and playing golf.
The source added to Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "They aren't planning to buy a house together.
"That might be what Robbie wants but Ayda still wants a lively social life. It was a factor in breaking them up and hasn't been resolved.
"The alien obsession has calmed a bit, because Robbie is working so hard. He's written three ballads that are as good as 'Angels'."
