Rod Stewart Joins Family in Croatia for Son Liam’s Wedding
Rod Stewart, 79, proudly stood by his son Liam as he tied the knot with Nicole Artukovich in a stunning ceremony at St. Ignatius Church in Dubrovnik. The legendary singer, accompanied by his wife Penny Lancaster, 53, and his ex-wife Rachel Hunter, was all smiles as he witnessed the special moment.
Liam, a 28-year-old ice hockey star, proposed to Nicole last July, just two months before the couple welcomed their first child, a son named Louie. His mother, New Zealand-born model Rachel Hunter—Rod’s second wife—looked radiant in an elegant teal gown.
Also present at the wedding were Rod and Penny’s two sons, Alastair, 18, and Aiden, 13, who joined the celebration along with other family members.
A Blended Family in Harmony
Rod, who has been married three times and has eight children with five different women, has spoken openly about the amicable relationships between his exes. While his split from Rachel in 1999 left him heartbroken, the years have seen tensions fade, and Penny has formed a friendly bond with Rachel.
Discussing their evolving relationship, Penny shared in a past interview: “Rachel and I have grown up over the years and have so much more in common now. We’ve moved on, and I always knew that being with Rod meant embracing his family, too.”
Rod echoed similar sentiments, telling the Daily Express, “We all get along wonderfully now. Penny and Rachel have built a great friendship, and all my exes are on good terms. I must have done something right.”
A Stylish Celebration
The wedding was a glamorous affair, with Penny stunning in a lilac gown featuring a thigh-high slit and oversized bow detail. She paired her look with gold platform heels, accentuating her long legs. Rod, ever the showman, opted for a silver satin suit paired with a pale yellow waistcoat, making a stylish statement at the event.
The picturesque Croatian venue was filled with love and laughter as the family celebrated Liam and Nicole’s union. Guests gathered around the newlyweds, creating a warm and joyful atmosphere befitting the occasion.
With love, family, and a touch of rock-and-roll elegance, the wedding was a truly unforgettable affair.
