Rod Stewart wears socks to bed as veteran singer 'feels the cold'

Rod Stewart wears it well in bed – as long as he has his socks and vest on.

And the Hot Legs singer, 74, makes sure he stays toasty under the covers by switching on his electric blanket.

He revealed: “I really feel the cold now.

"I go to bed with a vest, an electric blanket. Socks, the lot.”

Do Ya Think I’m Sexy? star Sir Rod said the cold forced him to flee to warmer climes for Christmas, adding: “I’m spending Christmas in Palm Beach, just down the beach from Donald Trump .”

The football fanatic also said he needs a knee replacement op after the holidays.

He explained: “It's from football over the years but I will be okay. I will be fine.”

Rod, who often kicks large blow up balls into the crowd at his shows, said recently his right knee had “packed up” and he no longer played football.

But he told BBC Radio 2 that although he was beginning to feel his advancing years, he was “happier now than I’ve ever been”.

He added: “I am comfortable in my own shell now.

“In the early days we all drank too much. I don’t drink so much now.”
