Rod is a proud father to eight children by five different mothers. He has been married to Penny Lancaster since 2007 and together they share sons Aiden, ten, and 16-year-old Alastair.

The star has previously credited his wife as the key to holding together his blended family. "She is a remarkable talent for [keeping everyone together]. It was hard coming up with all the other kids, they didn't know if it was another woman trying to get hold of dad's money… far from it.

"She won them all over and they all adore her now. We just had a wonderful holiday all together in Florida. Florida won't be the same since the Stewarts were there."

In an interview with People in November, Rod admitted he has learned to adapt his method of parenting to fit each child, given the age range. "I have to be several different fathers because of the different age groups of my kids," he explained. "You really have to treat all of them as individuals with individual problems."

"For instance, my 15-year-old is dating girls, so I had to give him a sex lesson. I just told him what he should and shouldn't do, but he's on top of it. He was like, 'Dad, I've got the internet. I know everything.'"
