Sir Rod Stewart has confirmed he will not be performing at King Charles' Coronation concert but says his model and television presenter wife Penny Lancaster will be on duty as special constable.
He has a residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, so will be there instead on May 7, Daily Record reports. Sir Rod was knighted by the Prince of Wales at Buckingham Place in 2016.
Last year, at the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee concert Rod led a singalong of Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond - so he is no stranger to Royal occasions. Loose Women panelist Penny has been a special constable with City of London Police since April last year.
