Rod Stewart reunites with former bandmate at his surprise 80th birthday party

Rod Stewart turned 80 on Jan. 10, but the two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Famer is still celebrating.

After Rod and his family celebrated together on a cruise, Rod's wife, Penny Lancaster, threw him a party on Jan. 18 to allow his friends to mark the milestone with him. One of the guests was Ron Wood, current Rolling Stones guitarist and Rod's former bandmate in The Faces.

Wood posted photos on his Instagram posing with Rod and their wives and goofing around at the event, captioning the photos, "Really fun night celebrating Rod's 80th!"

Rod said in an interview last year that he and Wood, along with another member of The Faces, drummer Kenney Jones, were working to record some new material.

Wood's wife, Sally, also posted photos but revealed the party was a surprise.

"Last night with @sirrodstewart @penny.lancaster @ronniewood celebrating Sir Rod’s 80th birthday ~ the most beautiful night," she wrote. "Thank you @penny.lancaster for being the best surprise party organiser ever, we love you both."

According to People, the party was also attended by Jools Holland, the former Squeeze keyboardist turned big band leader with whom Rod recorded his 2024 album Swing Fever.
