Robbie Williams has reportedly turned down a £2 million offer to join the X Factor. Star magazine claims that the Take That singer has asked for a bigger deal to replace Simon Cowell on the judging panel. "With Simon leaving to judge the US show, he's convinced Robbie would be the perfect successor. Rob's likeable, opinionated and funny," a source said. "But money has been a stumbling block. He wants more of an incentive to put himself out there on live TV every week." Meanwhile, Williams is said to be worried about the affect the work could have on his marriage. "Ayda loves the limelight, and there are rumours she's in talks for the next series of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills. But Rob prefers the idea of a quiet life," the source added. "If he had his way, he'd move to a desert island and live like a recluse. "He also wants a baby in the near future, and that's going to be tricky enough to fit in with the upcoming Take That tour as it is."
