Rod Stewart is a father to eight children, but he is set to celebrate some exciting news with his wife Penny Lancaster as his family is set to expand.
The 'Maggie May' singer shares Sarah with his ex-girlfriend Susannah Boffez, Kimberly and Sean with his ex-wife Alana Stewart, Ruby with his ex-girlfriend Kelly Emberg, Renee and Liam with his ex-wife Rachel Hunter, and Alastair and Aiden with his current wife Penny.
Several of his kids have become parents themselves, including Kimberly who is giving her daughter Delilah a baby brother.
"Baby boy coming soon," Kimberly captioned a photoshoot she shared on Instagram, cradling her blossoming baby bump in a fitted floral dress. She posed in a sprawling garden with concrete benches, rustic brick walls and colourful flowers.

She described his kitchen as "chaos" and said the feedback from her post on Instagram helped spark the idea "that I needed to reorganize closets professionally."
However, she will likely be taking a break from her business when she gives birth to her second child.

Rod staged the largest free rock concert ever in Rio de Janeiro in 1994, performing in front of over 4 million people.
2. Most successful song
Amongst his many songs, Rod's top-selling single is 'Maggie May', released in 1971. The song launched his career and reached number one in the UK.
3. Two-time cancer survivor
Rod was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in May 2000, and he underwent surgery in the same month. Then, in 2017 he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, but after having treatment, he was given the all-clear.
4. High net worth
It's no surprise that Rod has made money with his successful career and his net worth is estimated at around £179 million.
5. Son-father arrest
In 2019, Rod and his son Sean were arrested in Florida over a dispute with a security guard at a hotel. The guard allegedly denied them access to a private party on New Year's Eve. Rod pleaded guilty to charges of ''simple battery'' but was not found guilty.
Commenting on his lenient parenting approach, he added to Haute Living in 2023: "I don’t think I’m as strict with my kids as my mom and dad – especially my dad – were.
"I’m very lenient with them. None have gotten into any serious trouble. A couple dabbled with drugs, but that’s all done now. I’m very proud of them all."
