Take That This Life Tour Support Act
Adding to the excitement, Take That will be joined by special guest Olly Murs for their This Life tour. Murs, who rose to fame on the UK version of “The X Factor,” is no stranger to Take That, having performed their hit “Angels” with Robbie Williams during the show’s 2009 finale. He also supported the band during their Hyde Park concert in 2016.
Will Robbie Williams or Jason Orange Rejoin Take That on Tour?
The burning question on every fan’s mind: will Robbie Williams or Jason Orange reunite with Take That for the This Life tour? While anything is possible in the world of pop music, a full reunion seems unlikely at this point.
Robbie rejoined the band for a successful reunion tour and album from 2010 to 2014, but he’s currently focused on his solo career and upcoming biopic, “Better Man.” Jason Orange, on the other hand, stepped away from both Take That and the entertainment industry altogether in 2014.
While both Robbie and Jason remain close to the band members, they’ve expressed contentment with their decisions to move on. However, fans can always hold out hope for a surprise appearance or two.
