Rod Stewart and Penny Lancaster 'renew vows' for second time as Celtic-daft singer tours Australia

Sir Rod Stewart and wife Penny Lancaster have reportedly renewed their vows for the second time.

The happy couple have been married to since 2007 after dating in 1999. They renewed their vows for the first time in 2017 to mark their ten year anniversary. However a second one may have just happened, reports the Daily Record.

Having just performed across a number of nights Down Under, the 78-year-old has been joined by Penny and their two sons Alastair, 17, and Aiden, 12.

The Hoops-daft singer reportedly "spaced out his tour" so his children could attend the ceremony, according to Woman's Day magazine.

"There's a very good reason why Rod's insisted he space out his tour dates – it's the perfect place and the perfect time to renew their wedding vows," a close pal told the publication.

"They wanted to do this years ago but, just like his Aussie tour, that's been another thing on hold. Now they can't wait and are using this chance to do something special while here."

They continued: "They love Australia and have incredibly happy family memories of their time there when the boys were little.

"They think there's something magical about Australia and want to exchange new marriage vows there. Penny's made Rod a very happy man and he can't wait to celebrate their against-all-odds union."

"Penny is the first woman Rod's been faithful to, after an early hiccup that saw her walk out on him," the source added.

"Penny and Rod love being in love, they think there's something fun about celebrating their vows in different locations around the world, so why not do it all again in Sydney!"

Gushing over his 52-year-old wife, the romantic told Hello! Magazine in 2017: "Penny is my whole world. Love means many things to many people but to me it's wanting to share everything with the one you love and I love Penny now more than ever, if that is at all possible."

At the time, Penny added: "Being able to reflect on those ten years, and say those words to one another and still know we mean them is important. This felt more special.

"You get married with the hope that you'll be together; when we renewed our vows, we said them not with just hope, but with a reassurance. Along with hope, there is also faith, love and bringing all the family together."
