Rod's Baby Number Seven

Rod Stewart and Penny LancasterRod Stewart has become a daddy for the seventh time.

The 60-year-old rocker revealed that his fiancee Penny Lancaster gave birth to a boy in the early hours of Sunday.

"Both Penny and our baby son are gorgeous, healthy and doing well," he said.

"I am so very proud of my girl Pen for the commitment, courage and strength she showed throughout.

"We are celebrating every moment with our beautiful boy. We can't take our eyes off him."

Now back at home, Penny said: "It means so much to Rod and I that we were able to keep to our birthing plan and have our baby naturally.
