Sir Rod Stewart made an appearance with his teenage sons at the Mission Impossible 8 London premiere last night – and the resemblance was uncanny.
The Maggie May singer, 80, posed on the Leicester Square red carpet for The Final Reckoning alongside his wife Penny Lancaster, 54, and their two children – Alastair Wallace, 19, and Aiden Patrick, 14.
While Penny sported a yellow silky dress and white blazer, Sir Rod wore a velvet jacket with a frilly, unbuttoned white shirt and necklaces underneath.
The two teens wore matching black tie suits, and sported similar smart mousey brown haircuts too.
While Alastair was Sir Rod and Penny’s first child together, the teen was the rocker’s seventh child.
The Do Ya Think I’m Sexy? hitmaker’s first child was Sarah Streeter, now 61, who he welcomed with his girlfriend of the time, Susannah Boffey, when he was just a ‘stone broke’ teenager. She was put up for adoption, and they reconnected years later.
Sir Rod then welcomed Kimberly Stewart, 45, and Sean Stewart, 44, with ex-wife Alana Stewart,
Then came Ruby Stewart, 37, who Sir Rod shares with ex-girlfriend Kelly Emberg, before he and ex-wife Rachel Hunter welcomed Renee Stewart, 32, and Liam Stewart, 30.
Alastair, who is finding his feet in the world of modelling, seems to have a close relationship with Sir Rod, as they often pose together on social media.
A few months after Aiden’s birth in 2011, Sir Rod explained that he was hoping to enjoy his kids, rather than focus on his career.
He told People: ‘I’m trying to make more time now that I’ve carved out my career. I want to enjoy my kids. We’re all planning a massive vacation somewhere.
‘It’s hard to get them all together because they are all off in different directions. But I am so proud of them.’
In 2022, Sir Rod revealed Aiden had been rushed to hospital after he collapsed during a football match.
Sir Rod said: ‘We thought my boy had a heart attack.’
Speaking to FourFourTwo magazine, the singer continued: ‘He was going blue and was unconscious until he calmed down. It was scary, but it turned out to be a panic attack. The lad wanted to do well, pulled on the Hoops in Scotland for his dad.
This comes in a big year for Sir Rod – who turned 80 in January – as he is set to perform the coveted legend slot on Glastonbury Festival’s Pyramid Stage in June.
The legend slot sees music icons of decades-long, award-winning, chart-topping calibre take to the Pyramid Stage on the Sunday afternoon of the festival each year (usually kicking off from 3.15pm to 4.30pm).
While there was some backlash at Sir Rod filling the slot, with huge hits including Maggie May, I Don’t Want To Talk About It, Do Ya Think I’m Sexy?, All For Love, and Sailing, he does fit the bill.
Just last year his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra album with Jools Holland got him his 11th No. 1 UK album, and he’s one of the best-selling artists in history having sold over 250million records worldwide.
