Rod Stewart makes Celtic quip as he announces daughter's baby gender reveal

Rod Stewart is about to be a grandad again, as his daughter announced she was expecting a baby boy in April.

Ruby Stewart, the fourth of the rock legend's eight children, announced on Instagram that she is expecting her first child later this year.

Posting a video of her ultrasound scan, she wrote: "Out of all of the things that happened in 2022 you were by far the most beautiful, we can’t wait to meet you. Baby boy Kalick coming in April."

And the grandad-to-be was given the honour of announcing the sex of the baby in a series of videos posted to Ruby's story on Instagram.

It shows Rod opening an envelope with the answer inside as his family gathers around before he confirmed "it's a boy". During the celebrations, Rod can be heard saying "Mon the Celtic" before beginning to sing "welcome to the Stewart family".

Model Rachel Hunter, one of Rod's ex's wives, was among the first to send her love and congratulations. She wrote: "You are going to be an incredible mum."

Rod's current wife, Penny Lancaster, who will be the baby's step-grandmother, also revelled in the news. She posted: "Can’t wait to meet him."

And Kimberley Stewart, Ruby's half-sister, and the first of Rod's children to make him a grandfather, joked: "Def has the Stewart nose."

Rod, 77, became a grandfather for the first time in 2011, aged 66, when Kimberley, now 43, had a daughter with actor Benicio Del Toro.
