Sir Rod Stewart is set to become a grandfather for the third time as his son Liam announces surprise baby news.
Just weeks after Rod Stewart announced he was to welcome his second grandchild by daughter Ruby, a third grandchild is on the way!
The singer's son Liam, with ex-wife Rachel Hunter has revealed he is to welcome his first child with partner, Nicole Ann, with a beautiful video posted to his Instagram page.
The footage shows the pair having their first sonogram and even having a gender reveal next to their Christmas tree, alongside caption: "Mom + Dad | Baby Boy joins us in May."
But if the 28-year-old hockey player was ecstatic to share the news, his supermodel mum was even more overjoyed, writing a hilarious – and flustered – message on her son's post.
"Love you guys so exciteeddd the best Mum and Dad ever !!! I can’t wait !! finally I get to tell everyone," she said, adding: "Didn’t have my glasses on and put up the wrong heart !!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️."
Liam's pregnant sister Ruby Stewart, 35, wrote: "(Ugly crying) love you guys so happy for you two❤️," while sister Renee, 30, said: "Love you guys ❤️✨."
Rod's eldest child Kimberly Stewart, 43, wrote: "The best. Love you both," and Rod's wife Penny Lancaster excitedly added: "Beautiful, I can't help watching it over and over again."
