Before meeting Penny Lancaster, pop and rock singer Rod Stewart was certain he would not find love again, and two decades later, the couple is still going strong. Even when Lancaster went through her menopausal transitions, Stewart still saw her as the most beautiful woman.
Rod Stewart lived out his bachelor days to the fullest. The British rock and pop sensation has had a string of relationships and has six children with four women.
The rock star has a daughter, Sarah, from his teenage relationship. Stewart has two children, Kimberly and Sean, with his first wife, Alana Hamilton.
While he was dating Kelly Emberg, the two welcomed a daughter, Ruby. Then from his second marriage with Rachel Hunter, Stewart welcomed Renee and Liam.
After many unsuccessful relationships and two failed marriages, Stewart was confident his luck in finding love had run out. But his negative thoughts about companionship went out the window when he met supermodel Penny Lancaster in 1999.
The couple dated for seven years before Stewart went down on one knee in Paris in front of the Eiffel Tower. The singer is 24 years older than his wife, but he credits her for turning him into a dedicated husband and family man.
The “Sailing” hitmaker said he was shocked that Lancaster had put up with him for over two decades. “I am lost for words. They have not invented the words for how I feel about her. She is everything,” he gushed.
Before marrying his wife, Stewart admitted that he did not understand the work needed to build a healthy and loving marriage, but Lancaster helped him through it.
Despite the ups and downs in his relationships, Stewart clarified that his kids were the most important people in his life. “I cannot get enough of them,” he added.
Although Lancaster has positively impacted the singer, he said he also added value to his wife’s life. One thing he was sure he had improved in her was her confidence. When they first met, Lancaster was shy and did not talk much; now, Stewart said she’s not afraid to take space in a room.
Lancaster started her modeling career at a young age, and it quickly took off. The model landed a £200,000 deal to model for the lingerie and swimwear brand Ultimo in 2002.

The couple has two sons, Alastair and Aiden, but before welcoming them, Lancaster and her husband suffered two miscarriages. They eventually turned to IVF, which is how they conceived their firstborn child, Alastair.
Since the couple had been together for many years without children, they discussed how they would still nurture their relationship once the kids arrived.
