“We were going out there to help.
“I was like, ‘Should we go to the next street then?’, and looking back, it was scary.”
“I was with you,” Ayda chimed in. “I too was being threatened to be beheaded as well.”
It is estimated that 250,000 people were killed when the 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck in January 2010.
Williams, 46, went to the country soon after and made a string of appeal videos showing the devastation and the impact on the 1.5 million people who lost their homes.
Speaking at the time, the star said some of the scenes were “like a movie set”.
The star also reunited with his band Take That and several other stars to record a cover of REM’s Everybody Hurts in aid of victims of the earthquake.
