Penny Lancaster, 36, gave The Mirror an exclusive interview about life with fiance Rod Stewart, 62, and their son Alastair, 17 months. Here are some excerpts from the interview:

Rod proposed to her before they knew they were going to be parents: We’d been trying for a baby but we didn’t realise it would happen so quickly.

With his other six children, he didn’t have the time to take care of them: I know he wishes he’d had more time with his other kids when they were growing up, but he was working and he needed the work more than he does now.

As for Alastair: At this stage in life he’s able to spend more time with the family. It used to be all rock ‘n’ roll and it didn’t sit so well to walk around with a pram. But he’s achieved so much in his career he doesn’t have to keep up that image. Now pushing a pram isn’t the embarrassing thing he thought it was, it’s something to be very proud of.

She does not regret not never hiring a nanny: I think the biggest difference between Alastair and the other children is not having a nanny from the start, and actually just being with Daddy. It’s normally when you’ve got people to help that you hand a lot of things over to them. So it’s been good to be just the three of us.

Rod is just enjoying his father-son time: Now, if I have to be away from Rod, he’s like, ‘Of course I’ll miss you darling, but Alastair – just to see that face and not have his arms wrapped round my leg’. It’s such an attractive quality to see him being a father.

On November 27th 2005, rocker Rod Stewart and his fiance model Penny Lancaster welcomed their first child together, a boy named Alastair. This little bundle of joy was the seventh child for Rod, who says that this time around, he’s made some changes as a dad. 

During his first marriage to model Alana Hamilton, Rod says that he was on the road too much and wasn’t able to be a hand-ons dad to their two children, Kimberley, now 27, and Sean, now 25.

"I missed the first two or three years of their lives. I didn’t want to make that mistake with Alastair."

Rod and Penny have been engaged since March 2005.  They are planning to marry later this year, and will try for a honeymoon baby. Rod says they’ve got, "One more [baby] in the pipeline!"
