Robbie Williams made the dreams of hundreds of Take That fans come true this weekend when he joined his former band on stage at the X Factor final.

During the performance Robbie looked like he was enjoying the moment as much as the fans as he larked around with the boys on stage and strutted his stuff in classic Robbie fashion.

Gary, Mark and Howard looked pleased to have him up there with them as they joked around with each other with Mark even planting a kiss on Robbie at one point.

Robbie then planted a big kiss on his wife Ayda Field, 39, who sits alongside him on the X Factor judging panel.

Robbie was part of the original line up of Take That when the band formed in the 90s alongside Gary, Mark, Howard and Jason Orange who made the decision to leave the band in 2014.

Robbie stepped away from the group in 1995 and didn't rejoin them when the band got back together in the noughties.

However, if last night's performance was anything to go by, fans can keep their fingers crossed that Robbie will make more appearances with the boys as they get ready to celebrate their 30 year anniversary.

Do you think Robbie should rejoin Take That for their 2019 tour?
