It's mostly that the tabloids - along with most non-fans - don't really know who he is (when Howard was in the paper for the pneumothorax he was 'Take That Star' in the headline) and he doesn't court them. He's occasionally photographed in the Evening Star dancing in a club after some event or other but he's never really been seriously linked with anyone.
I'm very glad to hear things were better than they might have been over past few days. I hope the cold is improving even more! Fic is coming along, it will be a wee while because I like to finish before I start posting and this is shaping up to be a more-than-one-chunk-fic (this btw is a Good Thing - I've not been inspired with a full on plot in aaaages *g*)
vid I may or may not be sort of working on *bounces* *g* That clip is from the random clips from the 'Everything Changes' VHS which was brought out with the album and features indivdual and group pieces-to-camera (scarcely interviews) and all the videos relating to the album. The bit in the Mark/Robbie YT vid with them both getting their trousers down to compare tattoos is the same thing.
The last vid is 'Relight My Fire' video if you want to check it out - not very slashy as such but has Mark Owen in a tiny top *g*
Here is a video from Mark's solo years for 'Alone Without You' which, well, let's just say it's easy to believe it's about Robbie (like all his solo stuff there is no gender on the 'you' he is addressing and note the lyric 'I listened to your album' which narrows it down a bit...)
This shows Mark and Robbie 'wrestling' at about 1:53
And this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lubdDGUjS0 is the first of a series of YT uploads of the 'bits between the music videos' of the Greatest Hits VHS (all camcorder stuff of the band, mostly towards the end, including at one point Mark being tickled on a sofa by Gary and Robbie and looking blissfully happy).
