Rod Stewart, 80, all smiles as he makes rare appearance with teenage sons amid recent health struggles
Sir Rod Stewart’s teenage sons made a rare red carpet appearance alongside their father at the Leicester Square premiere of The Final Reckoning yesterday.
The 80-year-old rock legend was accompanied by his wife Penny Lancaster, 54, and their two children – Alastair Wallace, 19, and Aiden Patrick, 14.
The family outing marked a special occasion as the teens, who bear a striking resemblance to their famous father, are not often seen at public events.
The family showcased their distinctive style on the red carpet, with Sir Rod sporting a velvet jacket and frilly, unbuttoned white shirt adorned with necklaces.
Penny opted for an elegant yellow silky dress paired with a white blazer. The two teenagers cut dashing figures in matching black tie suits, both sporting similar smart mousey brown haircuts.
The resemblance between the teens and their rock star father was unmistakable, particularly with Alastair, who has been described as Sir Rod’s lookalike.
Alastair is Sir Rod’s seventh child, born to him and Penny as their first child together.
The Do Ya Think I’m Sexy? hitmaker has six other children from previous relationships.
