We're all kinds of mixed up about Mark Owen getting back with his wife

On the one hand, it's nice for all concerned if Mark Owen's reunion with his wife Emma earlier this week went reasonably well, but on the other... well, we're not sure if it's a good idea or not. But that's their business. We're just here to tell you about it.
According to friends of the couple, Emma has taken Mark back - but warned him that it's a "one strike and you're out" situation. "Mark has done his time and is itching to get out and resume family life," is the word from the secret source. "He has not touched alcohol in five weeks and has done a lot of navel gazing as well as receiving serious professional counsel. Emma knows he is a great dad and has agreed to give their marriage one more crack on the proviso he behaves himself, doesn’t so much as look at another woman and attends marriage counselling as and when. Mark has agreed to all terms."

But just because Mark's stopped putting his willy in other ladies, it doesn't mean he'll be keeping it tucked away just below that dolphin tattoo - apparently he's now all broody: "He has even suggested they try for another baby to cement their relationship. Another influence was Gary Barlow, who has been an absolute rock for both Emma and Mark. He has been happily married for ten years and has been advising his bandmate, telling him to pull his socks up. It was the talking to he needed."

So, Mark's going to become as boring as Gary, then. Er, great. Oh well, we've still got Jason and Howard to keep things a bit sexy...

Mark reunited with wife

TAKE That's Mark Owen is seen out with his wife for the first time since he went to booze rehab following revelations of his serial affairs.

The pin-up, 38, looked glum as he strolled in the sun with redhead Emma - who is still not wearing her wedding ring - and their two children.

Mark, who WAS wearing his ring, pushed a buggy as 33-year-old Emma - mother of son Elwood, three, and daughter Willow Rose, one - walked several paces ahead of him.

The singer, whose Take That hits include Back For Good, was seen over the weekend as the family walked in Wandsworth, South West London.

Boy band ... Mark, still with wedding ring, walks behind Emma

Last month Mark confessed to The Sun how he cheated on Emma with ten women, and told how he had been fighting a serious drink problem for ten years.

He promised he would change, and checked into rehab to beat his drunkenness.

Emma agreed not to divorce him for the sake of their kids - but the pair have put on hold plans to move to a larger home.

Mark Owen back for good with wife

Love-rat Mark Owen has been taken back for good by his long-suffering wife, The People can reveal.

And friends say the Take That idol is overjoyed he's been given a new start by Emma - even though he cheated on her with at least 10 women.

Mark, 38, has spent the past month battling booze problems at a secret rehab clinic after admitting the flings.

And pals feared mum-of-two Emma, 33, had ditched him for ever after she repeatedly shunned his desperate pleas to visit him.

But a source close to Mark said last night: "As far as a return home goes the phrase is 'the door is ajar' "Emma feels he's done everything he can to make it up to her and she has made sure he's learnt his lesson.

"Mark now has a genuine opportunity to move back in and show he's changed his ways.

"They're committed to making this work so everyone's hoping they can patch things up.

"But make no mistake - they know they face a long journey to get things back on track."

The source went on: "Their kids are at the centre of their thoughts.

"Emma believes she and Mark have to do everything they can to stay together and give them the best upbringing they can.

"And Mark is very much aware of his responsibilities as a dad and husband." The insider added: "Emma needed time to herself to work out what would be best for her children.

"She has gone through every emotion and there were times when the future of their marriage was in severe Emma doubt."

Mark has he can to Mark will now return to the plush London home he shares with Emma and their children Elwood, four, and Willow Rose, one, when he finally leaves rehab.

The couple - who have been together for six years - held crisis talks last week over the explosive revelations of Mark's drink-fuelled romps with a string of Take That fans.

Multi-millionaire Mark first fell for actress Emma, who has appeared in TV hits Doctors and The Bill, after they met in 2004.

They got engaged two years later and married in church in Scotland last November.

But the pair looked to be destined for the divorce courts just four weeks ago after Mark's cheating confession which stunned the legions of adoring women who had always believed in the fresh-faced star's goody-goody image.

After coming clean to heartbroken Emma about his serial cheating, Mark made a tearful public apology.

He sobbed: "I'm really sorry. Emma's really strong and I know she will do what's right for her and the kids.

"I support that and I really appreciate that.

"She loved me - she still does me - and I have let her down.

"You realise what you have done when you face up to it and the mistakes you have made."

Since then Mark - a former winner of C4's Celeb Big Brother - has been helped by his exbandmate Robbie Williams who has also had drink problems.

Howard set to hit the Wright spot

Take That star Howard Donald will be putting his recent love-life woes behind him with a trip to Dublin.

The Diary can reveal how the boyband member, who was rocked by reports that he bedded a Dutch beauty while in a relationship, is jetting to Ireland next month.

He has been signed up as the latest big name to take to the decks in the Wright Venue in Swords, following in the footsteps of stars including 50 Cent and Seb Fontaine.

Howard (41) will be adding some zeros to his bank account after agreeing to perform a two-hour set in the northside club on April 23.

"He's coming over for the night to do a set in the club for a few hours and he's really excited about it. It will be his first time in the club and they're expecting a big crowd of Take That fans on the night," said a source.

The singer was recently the subject of claims that he was unfaithful to the mother of his young daughter. The reports came hot on the heels of revelations about Howard's bandmate Mark Owen who admitted he cheated on his wife, Emma, with more than 10 women.

Owen has spent the past two weeks in a private clinic battling his booze problem in a bid to save his marriage and said he wants to stay in for another week.

Take That: Owen em reabilitação

Mark Owen dos Take That revelou que vai passar a Páscoa na clínica de reabilitação onde deu entrada há umas semanas.

O cantor britânico decidiu enfrentar os seus problemas de alcoolismo, depois de ver o seu casamento quase desfeito devido a vários casos de infidelidade, entretanto tornados públicos.

A clínica onde Owen está internado permite a saída dos pacientes, mas o cantor optou por continuar o tratamento até ficar melhor, porque, segundo citação do site femalefirst.co.uk, «prometeu à sua esposa expulsar todos os seus demónios».

Paralelamente, foi anunciado que Owen e os seus colegas nos Take That têm estado em estúdio a gravar com o regressado Robbie Williams.

Emma Takes That Mark back

SHE hasn't been to visit him in rehab for two weeks but MARK OWEN's distraught wife EMMA will soon be seeing a lot more of him.

Because, like most wives of cheating celebs, she's made the decision to Take That star Back For Good.

But I hear she wants to Relight the Fire in their relationship by moving into a different mansion.

My source revealed: "Mark is due out of rehab for his drinking imminently and Emma has decided she's going to give him another go.

"But she's made it completely clear things have to change and this is his last chance.

"If he lets her down again the door will be shut for good."

Actress Emma is planning to set up the family - including their son Elwood, three, and daughter Willow Rose, one - in a new house to give them a fresh start after he admitted to ten flings recently.

An insider close to the couple told me: "She's got her eye on a beautiful house in south-west London.

"It's a project she can focus on and try and stop thinking about her marriage to Mark."

I Pray Emma has made the right decision and Mark will respect their marriage from now on.

He'll need Patience as she asks him: How Deep Is Your Love?

Take That future "up in the air"

The future of Take That is said to be uncertain after Mark Owen checked-in to rehab following his admission of an alcohol addiction and a number of affairs.

According to Heat, sources close to the band have confirmed that the future of the band is "on hold" while Owen resolves his personal problems.

However, one claimed: "Mark is in rehab, so they can't continue recording without him. There's no more to it than that. As it stands, they're not going to split, but we'll have to wait and see.

"The boys are supposed to be releasing new material at the end of the year and that'll hopefully still happen. While you can never say never, Take That as a band are very much looking forward to the future and there's no real reason why the band can't continue."

They added: "Admittedly, things are a bit up in the air with Mark in rehab. All the boys are sticking by him - they're there for both him and Emma and are determined to support him through this.

"Mark is very much a part of the Take That family, and once he's addressed his demons the band can move forward."

Owen will reportedly leave rehab next month after responding well to treatment.

Gary Barlow - 'Kick-Ass' UK film premiere - After Party

London, England - 22.03.10

Gary and Dawn - Kick Ass premiere

The film, based on a comic book by Mark Millar, has been criticised for its use of bad language and features actress Moretz, who was 11 at the time of filming, repeatedly swearing and killing other characters.

Director Vaughn has previously defended the film, which has a 15 rating, saying: 'It's pretty amazing that four letters can have such a powerful effect on people.

'You know, taboos have to be broken,' he added. 'It's a free country and you don't have to watch it. There are enough people who like this film to warrant it being made.'

The character, called Hit-Girl, slices off people’s legs and shoots bullets through a man’s cheek. In one scene, the young serial killer screams at her victims: ‘Okay, you ****s, let’s see what you can do now.’

In another, she tells her vigilante father she wants a puppy for her birthday. When he looks surprised, she says: ‘I’m just f****** with you, Daddy’, and asks for a razor-sharp knife instead.

When asked by one U.S. interviewer about the suitability of an 11-year-old using the C-word, Miss Goldman said: ‘I think that’s the least of our worries.’

ROBBIE WILLIAMS: HE'S BACK (BUT NOT FOR GOOD)

ROBBIE Williams will definitely rejoin Take That for an album.

But before all you diehard fans break open the bubbly, take note: the Robster won’t be back for good.

The “boys” are out to reclaim their biggest boyband title from JLS by recording TWO albums this year – one with Robbie and one without.

My source close to the pop kings told me: “After taking a bit of time out Gary and the boys are now focused on bringing out two albums.

“The idea at the moment is to release two records.

“One with Robbie will hopefully be ready for Christmas and then one without him early next year.

“The band will be working with Madonna’s favourite producer Stuart Price who is currently working on Kylie’s big comeback album, so fans can expect a slightly different sound.” Is that the kerching of a cash register I hear?

Let’s just hope the lads find the time – what with all that extra activity Mark and Howard seem to be enjoying lately.

But before karaoke king Robbie plans to rule the world once more with Gary, Mark, Howard and Jason he’s desperate to shed those fat rings.

The Rock DJ knows he’s replaced old arch-enemy Gary as the chubby one of the group so he’s vowed to lose some
excess pounds.

Covering up in a large granddad cardie at an intimate gig for Heart Radio, Mr Williams revealed: “I’m a little bit porky at the moment and I have to do sexy. Give me a few months so I can get in shape and take my clothes off.”

With his wedding to Ayda Field on the horizon as well, it’s not surprising he only asked for fruit and protein bars on
his rider.

I wonder if Robbie’s decision to relive the group’s glory days has anything to do with his latest single Morning Sun
bombing.

A grumpy Rob told the crowd: “This song went in this week at number thirty f**king five, number thirty f**king five...but I hope you enjoy it anyway.”

I certainly did lad. Personally think it’s one of your best songs in ages.

Take That record with Madonna producer

IT'S not been the best couple of weeks for TAKE THAT - but at last here's some exciting news about their music.

The man band, rocked by MARK OWEN's admission of ten affairs, have hired MADONNA's chief sonic architect STUART PRICE to oversee their next album.

Price made his name working with Madge on her Confessions On A Dancefloor CD in his bedroom studio.

He also produced the last THE KILLERS album Day & Age, and has picked up Grammy Awards for his remixes of COLDPLAY's Talk and NO DOUBT's In My Life.

GARY BARLOW, Mark, HOWARD DONALD and JASON ORANGE are busy working with British maestro Stuart to sculpt a brand new sound.

They want him to steer their music in more of a disco and dance direction.

A source said: "It's a bold move by the lads to make the next album more interesting. They've played it safe in the past with mainstream producers. But this will take things up a notch. The plan is for Stuart to then work on the sound of their next live tour and bring the whole thing together. Howard, a successful DJ in his own right, has been championing Stuart."

Sounds like a good collaboration but it could be quite camp. Price has just finished the next SCISSOR SISTERS album.

Take That's past two albums, The Circus and Beautiful World, were produced by American rocker JOHN SHANKS.The new project - still untitled - is shaping up to be the most exciting album in Take That's 20-year career.

For a start it will be their first since 1995's Nobody Else to feature ROBBIE WILLIAMS.

Expect it to be released by the end of the year.

I bet that can't come soon enough for Mark or the huge army of Take That fans...

Mark Owen’s Wife Looks Miserable Amid Reports She’s Thrown Him Out…

As Emma Ferguson left the family home in London this morning to take her son to school she looked extremely glum - But considering yesterdays revelations that’s hardly surprising is it?!

Meanwhile, in light of the fact that Mark has now admitted to at least 10 affairs during his relationship with Emma, you wont be surprised to hear she’s kicked him out.

Apparently the pair were locked in crisis talks for hours, Mark was begging for forgiveness but it got him nowhere and Emma simply said, “Get out. You’re a liar and a cheat.”

The Take That star reportedly told his wife he’s a dirty dog on Tuesday when he discovered the newspapers were about to print the story. She didn’t go ballistic she just listened to what he had to say and then asked him to leave.

Bookies now have Owen on 7-4 odds to divorce by the end of the year. Sad.

Could it be (even more) tragic? Is Howard Donald the latest Take That star revealed as a serial shagger?

Sunday morning and we're saddened and shocked at reports that yet another popstar has been unable to keep it in his Calvins - and what's worse, it's ANOTHER member of Take That!

Yes, dearest readers, if the latest kiss and tell is to be believed, Howard Donald 'romped' with a Dutch lover (why does everything sound ruder when you put the word 'Dutch' in front of it?) while still with the mum of his five year old daughter.

Merith Van Onselen has flogged her side of the tale to a tawdry downmarket rag, so we're not sure whether we believe it or not.

After all, it's Howard! He of the lovely smile! The one we fancied 'cos we could see past the rubbish dreadlocks while everyone else slavered over Robbie!

Anyroadup, this Merith bird reckons he 'wooed her while high on wacky baccy' (note to lawyer - this was in Berlin and it's legal there) and 'cheated on' then partner Marie Christine Musswesseles, mum of his little girl Lola, five.

Has to be said, the news has pretty much ruined our Mothers' Day for us. We feel treacherous having sent our ma a bunch of tulips. FROM HOLLAND!

But it's pretty clear this Merith person (what sort of a name is that anyway?) has flogged her tale as she's bitter now Howard has dumped her and she really doesn't come out of this smelling of roses at all. Never mind tulips. And Howard isn't even with Marie anymore either.

But it still leaves us wondering - what TT bombshells are going to be dropped on us next? That Gary secretly tortures kittens? That Jason Orange's favourite colour is actually pink?

We don't think we can take much more so we're going back for a lie down. Wake us up when this trashing of The That's reputation is over...
