Penny Lancaster Stewart knows how to make waves—literally. The wife of rock legend Rod Stewart turned heads as she flaunted her figure in a swimsuit that left little to the imagination. Netizens who saw the photos had plenty to say about her appearance.

Penny Lancaster Stewart, 53, known for her stunning presence on and off the public eye, has turned heads with her stylish look during a beach getaway in Sardinia, Italy, with her husband, legendary singer Rod Stewart.

During a sun-soaked outing on a $50 million yacht with her husband, Penny flaunted her body in a tiny black swimsuit. She completed her chic look with dark brown sunglasses, and a simple necklace, and tied her blonde hair back, her side bangs adding a touch of flair.

Rod, on the other hand, looked relaxed in a yellow button-up shirt, black sunglasses, and stylish accessories. At times, he was seen covering his face with a towel to shield himself from the sun. The couple’s glamorous appearance, especially Penny’s, has sparked a buzz on social media.

Many critics were quick to voice their disapproval, questioning the appropriateness of Penny’s outfit for someone in her position. “Oh dear!” a netizen exclaimed. “Is that really her ???” another questioned while a third commented, “That is not a good look.”

More users reacted negatively. “How embarrassing,” said one. “I’m sure she could find something more flattering to wear. This isn’t it!” someone else remarked. A disappointed critic echoed the sentiment, “Not a flattering top,” while another pointed out Penny’s sagging breasts and wrinkles.

Amidst the criticism, however, some netizens voiced support and empathy for Penny. One user appreciated her candid display of her natural self, writing, “Thank you, Penny for making me feel better about my 50 yo Mom bod [sic].”

“The swimsuit is not flattering. She is in her 50s so stop the criticism. She is not ‘wow’ but no need for name calling [sic],” a supporter defended. Another gushed, “Its comforting to know that even an ex model can still put on a few extra pounds, and succumb to the effects of gravity and the normal aging process [sic].”

Despite mixed comments from netizens, Penny remains popular on social media. In June, she posted a photo on Instagram, showing off her legs while posing with her sons, Alastair and Aiden. They attended the wedding of Rod’s son, Liam Stewart, 29, and his fiancée, Nicole Artukovich.

Penny beamed alongside her sons, sharing their excitement for the family event. She captioned the post, “So proud of my boys @alastairwstewart and @aiden.stewart1888 as we head off to celebrate @discostew94 and @nicoleartukovich beautiful marriage 💗.”

The photo captured the family in high spirits, ready to celebrate the joyous occasion. The English model looked glamorous in a shiny, soft lilac satin dress that featured spaghetti straps, a thigh-high slit, and a decorative bow on the bosom. She wore gold strappy heels, completing her elegant look.

Her sons, Alastair, 18, and Aiden, 12, were equally stylish in matching blue suits. They paired their suits with white shirts and pink ties, adorned with flower lapels. Alastair sported brown shoes, while Aiden’s shoes were lace-up, adding a youthful touch to their coordinated outfits.

The reaction to Penny Lancaster’s outfit was overwhelmingly positive, with fans showering her with compliments. One fan exclaimed, “Love your dress you look gorgeous!” while another gushed, “Great legs ❤️❤️.”

A third fan added, “Beautiful photo, you look fabulous Penny the colour of that dress is perfection 💜💜.”�Away from their outfits, the resemblance between Aiden and his famous father also caught fans’ attention.

An amazed fan wrote, “My goodness Aiden looks the spitting image of his father wow!! Beautiful family,” while another chimed in “Aidan is his fathers double, hair too.. Beautiful family 🥂🎉.”

Another user humorously remarked, “Beautiful Boys. The younger one was he cloned? Lol,” and one more commented, “Great photo. Aiden looks like his Dad❤️.”

Besides Alistair and Aiden, Rod has six other children. He is a dad to daughter Sarah, whom he and his ex-girlfriend Susannah Boffey placed for adoption as teens. Rod and his ex-wife Alana Stewart also share a daughter, Kimberly, and a son, Sean.

Rod welcomed his son, Liam, and daughter, Renee, with his other ex-wife, Rachel Hunter. He is also a dad to daughter, Ruby, with his ex-girlfriend, Kelly Emberg.

Rod, who has been married to Penny for 16 years, also opened up about what keeps his marriage strong and lasting. The singer said he and his wife have prioritized intimacy and do not take anything for granted.

Rod Stewart revealed that Penny mended his broken heart after his ex-wife, Rachel, broke up with him. He and Rachel split on a Monday, and by Saturday, he had met Penny. Six months later, Penny gave him her phone number, marking the beginning of their relationship.

A year after his divorce from Rachel, Rod married Penny in Italy. They adore their kids, Aiden and Alastair, and their blended family remains united, spending holidays like Christmas together and celebrating milestones.

Penny’s strong bond with her family and marriage to Rod shows through in all seasons of their life. Just as her relationships remain solid, her fashion statements—whether at a wedding or on the beach—demonstrate her grace and confidence, unshaken by public opinion.
