Why have one toilet, when you can have 22?
That's perhaps the question Robbie Williams asked himself when he perused his latest piece of real estate: the Angels hitmaker has reportedly purchased a seriously extravagant mansion in Beverly Hills with over 20 bathrooms.
According to TMZ, the 41-year-old entertainer is said to have splashed out $32m on the sweeping property, after getting it down from the asking price of $38m.
Nestled in the hills, the red-roofed abode is a striking addition to the Los Angeles landscape, although it is not yet known when Robbie and his family will be moving in.
The huge home might not come as a surprise, as the star recently admitted that he and his wife of five years are keen to expand their family even more.
In a recent interview with Australian radio station 94FM's breakfast show, he said: 'There will be a third [child] for sure,' he told radio hosts Blackers, Carmen and Fitzy.
'The missus wants a third one so we are sort of in contract negotiations right now...we all know how that goes.'
Not too shabby: The property boasts a swimming pool and a pool house, as well as a tennis court
Enviable pad: The former Take That star is said to have paid $6m under the asking price on the property
He added: 'I am loving fatherhood. I am loving my little girl. I am bowled [ecstatic] over her and my little boy's getting bigger and bigger every day.'
The news of the former Take That star's new residence comes after it was claimed he would be moving out of Los Angeles after living there for years in the hopes of launching a successful career in the US.
Last year, ahead of the birth of his and Ayda's second child, he told The Sun that he wanted to return to the UK, his home, now that he's a father.
Sporting fun: Thanks to the tennis court, Robbie and his wife and kids - three-year-old daughter Theodora Rose and one-year-old son Charlton Valentine - will be able to hone their racket skills
'I love LA. The people and the weather are great but it's not England. It can't offer the same. Things change when you're a dad - there are people to look after who are more important than yourself.
'I want Teddy and the new baby, whatever it may be, to be educated in England.'
Robbie added: 'Teddy is already surrounded by English people so she's bound to have an accent anyway. But that's not the point - we want to educate her in London. We've just bought a ruddy big house so we had better be coming back!'
The 'ruddy big house' he was referring to was no doubt his £17.5m home in north London, but it seems they had a change of heart as their second child Charlton - born in October 2014 - was born in California.
Back in the USA? Last year Robbie said he would be moving to the UK so his kids can grow up there, but he may have had a major change of heart judging by his recent supposed purchase
