Yungblud has always acted like an artist who possesses a resolute faith that he belongs on the world’s biggest stage, and now the Doncaster pop-punk dynamo has revealed that there might be a good reason for it. In an interview with Bill Maher on the US broadcaster’s Club Random podcast, Yungblud – real name Dominic Harrison – told Maher that he was brought up thinking that Rod Stewart was his grandad.
It came about, he explained, because his mum and grandmother thought it was better option than tell him the real tale. “My mum never knew her dad,” he said. “My mum’s dad knocked my grandma up and then pissed off. I always thought my grandfather was Rod Stewart.”
