Stewart Has More Time For Another Baby
By WENNThursday, November 12, 2009
Ageing rocker ROD STEWART is happy to become a father again so late in life because he has more time to spend with his kids now his music career has levelled off.
The 64-year-old musician has three grown-up children, Kimberly, 30, Sean, 29, with ex-wife Alana Hamilton, and Ruby, 22, with model Kelly Emberg, as well as teenagers Renee and Liam from his marriage to Rachel Hunter.
He also has a 45-year-old daughter, Sarah Thubron Streeter, who was put up for adoption in 1964.
The rocker is now married to Penny Lancaster and the star’s seventh child, Alastair, was born in 2005.
The couple is trying for another baby - and Stewart admits he prefers being a parent in his sixties because he is able to be a hands-on dad.
He says, “She (Lancaster) wants another child and I will do more or less anything to keep her happy. I would love to have another little one. I feel I’ve got more energy and am more mobile and I’ve got the money and the time to have another child - which wasn’t always the case. Especially in the early ’80s when Sean and Kim were born, I was very much on the road working hard. I didn’t get a great deal of time with them when they were Alistair’s age.”
