Rod Stewart's 80th: Yacht, Family, Future Plans

Sir Rod Stewart is celebrating his 80th birthday with a lavish 10-day family trip aboard a $150 million superyacht in Barbados, with the festivities reportedly costing up to $3 million. The music icon has gathered his large blended family, including his wife Penny Lancaster and several of his eight children and grandchildren, for the extravagant celebration. Stewart is covering all expenses for the trip, which includes flying family members first-class to Florida before the yacht set sail. The yacht features luxurious amenities such as a beauty salon, gym, hammam, swimming pool, and helipad, with a full crew, including chefs, to cater to the family's needs. This milestone celebration comes as Rod expresses gratitude to his fans for supporting his long career, promising more music and performances in the future. Despite past health scares, he remains active and has no plans to retire, with upcoming performances planned at Glastonbury and in Las Vegas.
