ROBBIE WILLIAMS has fuelled speculation he is set to reunite with his former TAKE THAT bandmates after joining them at a recording studio in New York over the weekend.

Rob was spotted with the Take That boys at the Electric Lady Studios in New York on Saturday - reportedly to work on new music.

A source tells Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper, "He is back with Take That in the studio and they're all writing together again. Robbie wouldn't be happy performing old Take That songs that he has had no part in.

"But if they can pen new tracks that they're all happy with, they'll record them and he'll be back with them on stage.

"They thought it (New York) was the best place to hook up and start writing again without attracting too much attention. They are nowhere near recording anything. This was a writing session to see how they go."

The singer quit the band in 1995 to pursue a solo career and the four other members - Gary Barlow, Jason Orange, Mark Owen, and Howard Donald - disbanded the group a year later.

 They reunited for a hugely successful tour in 2006 and have released a string of hits in the U.K. since then.

The band have been dogged with rumours their former bandmate would rejoin them at some stage, after Barlow and Williams himself both admitted they would love to reunite.
