Robbie Williams has claimed he has recorded again with Take That and said the tracks are "amazing".
The revelation come just hours after the singer shared a stage with his former bandmates for the first time since he left the group in 1995.
After weeks of hinting he may work with the quartet again, Robbie has now claimed the studio reunion has already begun.
During an interview to be broadcast later this year by BBC Radio 2, Robbie praised Take That songwriter Gary Barlow and confessed he had recorded with the band.
Speaking about a Take That reunion, he said: "We'd have to have written some incredibly great songs together for me to be very, very excited about the project."
He then added: "I might be 'very, very excited' about a project that's currently happening."
In the programme, to be broadcast on Christmas Day, Robbie initially claimed that any studio work would be some time in the future, before making his admission.
He said: "Gaz is an amazing, amazing singer-songwriter, I'm honoured to be in the same studio as him ... erm ...when we do, in the future."
Challenged that he was lying and had already been in the studio, he admitted: "We've been in and the songs are absolutely amazing."
But fans should not necessarily hold their breath. It is unclear whether he is planning any sort of long-term partnership or whether the recordings will be officially released.
