Rod Stewart, 79, rocked by divorce bombshell as son ‘splits from wife of one year’
The Stewart family has reportedly been rocked by the news that Sean, 43, has decided to divorce his wife after just one year.
The 43-year-old son of Sir Rod Stewart, 79, married TV producer Jody Weintraub last year but sources say they’ve already called time on their romance.
It’s been reported that the son of the 79-year-old singer has already been separated from Weintraub for “several months”, according to sources.
A source said of the split: “They were doing so well for so long but then things went haywire earlier this year.
“They realised they were not a fit for each other after they started to fight a lot over everyday things.”
The unnamed source went on to claim to DailyMail.com that the self-proclaimed entrepreneur has already moved on.
They alleged: “He is dating this very hot blonde beauty, they have really hit it off.
“She has her own business and is very independent. They have been going on dates in Malibu.”
Weintraub and Stewart’s wedding took place on Valentine’s Day last year, with Stewart sharing a series of snaps from the big day in Las Vegas.
Stewart hasn’t publicly addressed the reports of his divorce, but has returned to social media to share an update from the beach.
His father similarly has avoided any public mention of his son’s reported divorce bombshell.
However, the legendary crooner has been in the news lately due to revelations from his own relationship with Penny Lancaster.
Earlier this month, Lancaster candidly bared all about her tumultuous experience of going through menopause and the toll it took on her marriage to Stewart.
Days after Stewart paid a sweet tribute to his other half as they celebrated their anniversary, Lancaster told the Times Magazine that she “didn’t care about anything” due to the impact of her health battle.
Delving into one incident in which she threw a number of plates across their kitchen, Lancaster said: “Of course, it was an absolute shock to Rod and the boys. Rod just went, ‘Boys, in the other room. Leave Mummy.’
“He came over and said, ‘It’s all right, darling. It’s OK, it’s OK.’ I was shaking.

“‘I can’t do this. What the hell is going on with me?’ I thought I was going mad. Rod said, ‘Right, we’ve got to get you to the doctor’s. You can’t carry on like this. There’s got to be an answer. There’s got to be something’.”
“I didn’t care about anything that was happening.”
