The amount Robbie splashed out on a Nativity painting

Showman Robbie Williams has splashed out £30,000 (?44,000) for a controversial painting of the Nativity scene by British artist Banksy.

The painting reportedly shows Mary and Joseph blocked from getting to Bethlehem by a graffiti wall.

Robbie spotted the work of art in a London gallery and snapped it up for his Chelsea home.
