Rod Stewart has revealed his son Aiden was rushed to hospital in an ambulance with a suspected heart attack after collapsing at a football match – but it was in fact a panic attack.
The musician, 77, said he went ‘blue and unconscious’ while playing for his Young Hoops Under-12s team but did not say when this happened.
Talking to FourFourTwo magazine, he said: ‘We thought my boy had a heart attack.
‘He was going blue and was unconscious until he calmed down. It was scary, but it turned out to be a panic attack. The lad wanted to do well, pulled on the Hoops in Scotland for his dad.
‘Another boy fell backwards and banged his head – he’s still not back. In all of my days watching football, that’s the only time two ambulances had been called.
Rod’s offspring are from romances with five different women. He has two sons with current wife Penny, 51, model Alastair, 16 and Aiden.
Kimberly, 43, and Sean, 42, are from Rod’s first marriage to actress, Alana Stewart, 77, and daughter Ruby, 35, is from his relationship with model Kelly Emberg, 63.
Rod took to Instagram last month to confirm the sad news, revealing Bob passed away the night before.
Describing his late siblings as ‘irreplaceable buddies’, Rod said he has ‘lost two of my best mates in the space of two months’ as Bob ‘joins Don on the great football pitch in the sky’.
Sir Rod wrote in tribute: ‘It’s with great sadness that I announce the loss of my brother Bob last night, who joins my brother Don on the great football pitch in the sky.
