The news comes after Claudine and Robbie launched a fundraiser earlier this week, to raise money for healthcare staff in Ireland, amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Encouraging people to donate to the GoFundMe page, Robbie is giving away his personal Hublot watch to one lucky donor – and the winner will be picked next month.

The couple have already raised over €27,000, surpassing their original goal of €20k.
