Rod Stewart has been working in the music industry for over half a century now and it seems like his children wanted him to stop performing for him to focus on himself and his family.
According to a source close to the musician's family members who spoke with Daily Mail, some of the British legend's eight kids are doing their best to convince their father to retire.
One of the main reasons is they are worried about his current health status and he also has nothing left to prove to anyone as he has been a world-renowned performer for decades. (via Page Six)
"With his health issues, and considering his age, several of Rod's kids just think it is time for him to take a few years to focus on his health and his family - especially after the birth of his third grandbaby," the insider said.
Despite the rumors, Rod Stewart has yet to announce if he's going to close the curtain in his career to rest and focus on his loved ones or not.
Rod Stewart's Children
According to People Magazine, the rock musician has eight children with five mothers. He has four sons and four daughters.
The outlet noted that his eldest child named Sarah is now 59 years old. He shares his first-born with ex-girlfriend Susannah Bofey.
Following this, he was formerly married to Alana Stewart which led them to have another two kids, 43-year-old Kimberly and 43-year-old Liam. He then had a relationship with Kelly Emberg, the mother of his daughter 35-year-old Ruby.
Stewart later got married to his ex-wife Rachel Hunter, in which he shares two more children named Renee and Liam, ages 31 and 28 respectively.
The music legend's youngest children are Alastair and Aiden, ages 17 and 12, whom he shares with his current partner Penny Lancaster.
Rod Stewart Speaks About Being a Father
In addition to being a father to eight lovely children, he is also a proud grandfather of two.
Speaking about fatherhood in a previous interview with the outlet, the singer said, " "You really have to treat all of them as individuals with individual problems."
He noted that some of his older children went on to have their individual problems and phases of their own like experimenting with drugs or drinking too much, but they were able to recover.
He added, "seeing all my kids and my wife with big smiles on their faces" is what makes him the happiest.
