Starstruck Jack Grealish takes his parents Kevin and Karen to meet Rod Stewart backstage at his gig

Daily Mail​07-05-2025

Jack Grealish enjoyed a family night out as he attended a Rod Stewart concert with his parents Kevin and Karen.
The footballer, 29, looked in good spirits as he posed for a snap alongside the rockstar, 80, backstage after the show.
Jack also shared a video of himself singing along to Rod's 1975 hit I Don't Want To Talk About It, with his mother also seen in the clip.
The Manchester City star cut a casual figure for the evening, sporting a white vest with matching linen trousers and a denim shirt.
Rod looked dapper in a white open shirt and matching trousers along with a cream and navy blazer.
Alongside the post, he wrote: 'An incredible weekend seeing the legend live @sirrodstewart! What a lovely guy. It was a pleasure to watch and meet you.'

Jack and his girlfriend Sasha Attwood became parents for the first time in September when they welcomed their daughter Mila.
In the first photo they shared, Mila was wrapped up in a patterned baby grow and a knitted blanket as she slept peacefully while holding the attacking midfielder's finger.
Jack wrote: 'Mila Rose Grealish 27/09/24'.
The couple said that welcoming their little girl is 'the most special moment of their lives'.
Sharing the same photo, Sasha wrote: 27/09/24 Mila Rose Grealish. The most special moment of my life'.
Weeks later, Jack looked every inch a doting dad as he shared his first Instagram snap of his baby daughter, cradling her in bed.
He looked completely relaxed as he showed off his muscular arms in a white tank top and black tracksuit bottoms as he held the newborn upright.
Months after welcoming their little girl, Sasha and Mila stepped out in support of Jack as Manchester City played Spurs.
Taking to Instagram in November, Sasha shared a sweet snap of her in the VIP section of Etihad Stadium.
In the snap, Sasha was holding her daughter Mila - who was sporting an adorable Man City top with his dad Jack's number and name on it.
Jack was benched for the match against Spurs before being brought on at the 74th minute while Man City were 3-0 down.
But he was unable to help turn the game around for the team and the eventually lost 4-0 - their fifth consecutive defeat.

Miley Cyrus' mom Tish reveals how she feels about her relationship with boyfriend Maxx Morando

' mother Tish Cyrus is giving her no-holds-barred thoughts on her daughters' romantic lives. On the latest episode of her Sorry We're Cyrus podcast, the 58-year-old matriarch shared her honest opinion about Miley's, 32, Noah's, 25, and Brandi's, 38, partners. Chatting with guest Harry Jowsey, she divulged, 'All my girls are in such super-healthy, amazing relationships.' The proud mom, who is married to Australian actor Dominic Purcell, gushed, 'I love love and I think that they have been much more cautious in love than I was, and taken longer to make sure it's the right person.' Miley is dating Maxx Morando, while Noah is engaged to fashion designer Pinkus, and Brandi is coupled up with Matt Southcombe. Tish said her female children have made sure 'there are no red flags' when it comes to who they've settled down with. In April Noah appeared on Sorry We're Cyrus, which her mom co-hosts with her older sister Brandi, and gushed, 'My fiancé and my mom are really close.' She elaborated, 'I love that so much because [with] my past boyfriends, my mom has not been close with [them].' The singer clarified, 'Well, my first one you tried to be [close with] and then the rest were just, like, [a] plane crash. We got through it, and now I'm with a nice, little German man.' Tish split from her Billy Ray Cyrus in 2022 after 28 years of marriage, and their divorce was finalized in 2023. She married Prison Break star Dominic in August of the same year. Meanwhile, Billy Ray, 63, debuted his shock romance with Elizabeth Hurley, 59, in April. It came after the end of his short-lived marriage to 36-year-old singer Firerose, which was settled in August 2024. Billy Ray praised his ex-wife Tish via social media on Mother's Day this year. In recognition of the holiday, the country crooner — who shares five kids with Tish — posted a solemn statement on Instagram that centered around family. In addition to Miley, Noah, and Brandi, the exes are parents to Braison, 31, and Trace, 36 — who slammed the patriarch as 'evil' earlier this week. 'Happy Mother's Day to all the #StrongMothers out there. Here's a couple that made our family who and what we are,' he began. Speaking highly of his ex, he said, 'Tish Cyrus was and is the very definition of a strong mother,' adding, 'Trust me, I'm the first to admit... being married to me was not easy.' The Achy Breaky Heart singer continued, 'I'm very good at making mistakes. A very imperfect man. But thank goodness... somewhere along the line my Mama also taught me "life is a series of adjustments."' He also named Miley in the lengthy message, writing, 'I'm so proud of Miley and her guts and her courage... her wisdom and strength to bring it when our family needed it most.' Billy went on to share, 'We are so close to a full healing. We have all been through a lot.'

PR-savvy and now finally a knight - Beckham always knew how to turn on the charm

A sporting icon courted by prime ministers past and present, newly knighted Sir David Beckham is renowned for being extremely media savvy. Never more so than when I interviewed him for Sky News at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, after he took part in the closing ceremony having played a key role in London's winning bid to host the 2012 Games. Speaking about Sir Alex Ferguson in the interview, canny Sir Becks heaped praise on his old boss in our interview. But he'd been less complimentary about his old boss in a conversation with prime minister Gordon Brown, I later learned. I'd travelled to Beijing with Mr Brown, via Afghanistan, and we spent the final evening of the Games at the handover party, when Boris Johnson - then London mayor - famously spoke in his speech about "wiff waff" (table tennis) coming home. During his Beijing visit, Mr Brown had been promoting the idea of a Great Britain football team competing at the 2012 Games and there was speculation about Sir Alex being the team's coach. "Aah, Sir Alex," Becks said wistfully and apparently affectionately when I asked him about being re-united with his former Manchester United manager during the interview. "Like a father to me." Later, on the flight home to the UK, when I told Gordon Brown about the interview, the prime minister laughed. "That's funny," he said. "Why?" I asked him. Beckham played for Fergie at Manchester United from 1995 until 2003, when he joined Real Madrid amid claims that Ferguson disapproved of the player's showbiz lifestyle. By 2008 he was playing for LA Galaxy in the US. But despite his canny, PR-savvy answers in my interview, I saw him work the room that night in Beijing and glad-hand relentlessly. He gave every interview asked of him and turned on the charm on behalf of UK PLC to everyone present. For politicians and prime ministers, sportsmen and women like Beckham are pure gold. David Cameron was also a fan and was photographed sitting alongside Becks at the London Games. When "Goldenballs", as wife Victoria called him, retired from football a year later, a No 10 spokesman gushed: "The prime minister's view is that David Beckham has been an outstanding footballer throughout his career. "But not only that, he has been a brilliant ambassador for this country, not least if we remember all the work he did on helping us win London 2012." There was indeed a Great Britain men's football team at the Olympics, but it was coached by former England legend Stuart Pearce, not Sir Alex. And Pearce, nicknamed "psycho" for his aggressive style on the pitch, didn't pick Becks either, though he claimed he'd faced pressure from Downing Street to include him. Then in 2017, David Cameron's former spin doctor Craig Oliver claimed a senior Tory cabinet minister - thought to have been George Osborne - suggested giving Becks a peerage and appointing him sports minister in a 2013 cabinet reshuffle. That never happened either, obviously, though at least now David Beckham is also a knight - just like his "father figure" Sir Alex.
