Rod Stewart, 80, cuts a dapper figure in pearl necklace and open-necked shirt as the stylish star steps out in New York City
He is an iconic singer known for his youthful looks and sense of style. And Rod Stewart cut a dapper figure as he stepped out in New York on Friday. The You Wear It Well singer, 80, flashed a glimpse of his bronzed chest in a loose fitting open-necked white shirt, which he paired with linen shorts. Rod looked handsome in some aviator shades and wore a pair of box fresh Converse and white socks, which he pulled up high. He completed his summer-fresh ensemble with an array of funky jewellery, which included a pearl necklace, a sparkly and chain bracelet and some rings. Looking in good spirits, the music legend - who is currently on tour in the US - clutched onto a cold beverage as he headed back into his luxury hotel. Rod's appearance comes after he candidly opened up about how his split from his ex-wife Rachel Hunter 'tore him to shreds '. The rock singer was in a relationship with the New Zealand model, 55, for nine years and they welcomed two children together - daughter Renee, 33, and son Liam, 30. The pair, who have a 24-year age gap, met at an LA nightclub when Rachel was just 21 years old, with Rod admitting his sister Mary thought his wife was 'too young'. Reflecting on the breakdown of their marriage, Rod admitted their age gap did end up being the reason for their eventual split, which he said 'tore him to shreds' at the time. Making rare comments about his ex-wife, he told The Times: 'Rachel left me because she was too young - my sister said I should never have married her in the first place -but it tore me to shreds.' Rod met his now-wife Penny Lancaster just six months after his split from Rachel, and said the gap was purely because his friend wouldn't hand over her number. When asked if he wanted to be single first, he quipped: 'F***ing right, there were six months between Rachel and Penny because my bass player, who had Penny's number, wouldn't give it to me. 'He said, ''All you're going to do now is s**g around'', and he was right: I had a splendid time in those six months.' Rod gushed over his wife Penny, 54, and told how she has 'everything' he wants as he revealed he is now happier than ever. The Maggie May hitmaker first met his ex-wife Rachel at Roxbury Club in Los Angeles and told how he thought she was a 'goddess' in his 2012 autobiography. 'There was a connection straight away. She was extremely beautiful, but there was something no-nonsense about her as well,' he shared in the book. 'It was there in her New Zealand accent, but also in her face, which was open and smart. 'Not only was she as far removed as could be from the stereotype of the flaky model, but she already had money and fame. 'That was a relief. In my position, that suspicion was always there: does this woman really like me, or just the stuff that surrounds me?' The next day, he sent two dozen red roses to her model agency and they quickly struck up a romance, tying the knot just three months later in December 1990. However, Rachel left him heartbroken when she called time on their eight-year marriage in January 1999, some seven years before they divorced in 2006. Months after their split, Rod embraced single life again and went on dates with models, including Caprice Bourret, though their romance didn't last. Rod then met Penny - who was 28 at the time - and they quickly began dating, which he previously admitted was 'difficult' on his family at the time. Rod said his siblings - Mary, Don and Bob - were initially 'suspicious' and didn't want a repeat of his split from Rachel, while Penny's own brother Oliver was worried about her dating a rock star. Despite initial tensions, their relationship went from strength-to-strength and the couple tied the knot in June 2007 after his divorce from Rachel was finalised. Rod and Penny share two children - Alastair, 19, and Aiden, 14 - and the couple are now on good terms with Rod's ex-wife Rachel. In 2017, Penny told the Loose Women panel how her and Rachel are now very friendly despite the rocky situation at the beginning. She explained: 'Rachel and I, over the years, we've grown up and both have a lot more in common now. We sit and chat and we've got over that silly period 10, 15 years ago. 'It's about being adults... We've moved on, grown up, and from the beginning I knew I wasn't dating just Rod; I was in a relationship with his family. 'I saw how all his children were getting on and I wanted my future children to do that as well.' Penny and Rachel are often seen smiling in photographs together during large blended family gatherings. Speaking of Rachel and Penny's relationship himself, Rod told the Daily Express: 'We get on great now and Penny gets on great with Rachel. 'In fact all the exes get on so I think I must have done something right.' The rocker has eight children from five different mothers and has been married three times, including his marriages to Penny and Rachel. Rod welcomed his oldest child, daughter Sarah Streeter, with his ex-girlfriend Susannah Boffey when he was just 18 years old, with the couple giving her up for adoption. Sarah, now 61, was raised by her adoptive parents but reconnected with Rod later in life, after her adoptive mother's death in 2007. He then went on to have two children, daughter Kimberly, 45, and his son Sean, 44, with his ex-wife Alana Stewart. The star fathered another daughter, Ruby, 37, with his former partner Kelly Emberg before marrying his second wife Rachel, who gave birth to Renee and Liam. Rod then welcomed his youngest two children - Alastair and Aiden - with Penny. And his youngest two sons showed their support for their father last week when they attended Glastonbury Festival to watch his headlining set. After he took over the Legends slot on Sunday, Rod took to Instagram to share snaps of his sons proudly watching on from the crowd. Aidan sat on elder brothers Alistair's shoulders for the set, while the 19-year-old wore a shirt from his father's beloved Celtics football team around his neck.

Is the Olympia Theater officially dunzo? Here's the latest on Miami's historic venue
The Olympia Theater, a beloved cultural landmark in downtown Miami, is poised for a long-overdue revival. Originally opened in 1926 as a silent movie palace designed by architect John Eberson, it features a ceiling that mimics a starlit night sky and Moorish-style décor. Over the decades, it evolved from a movie house into a performing arts venue, with its history deeply entwined with the city's cultural growth. But for the last five years, the Olympia has sat empty. Now, the theater that once saw performers from Elvis Presley to Ella Fitzgerald and Luciano Pavarotti perform on its stage might open its doors once more. The Miami City Council will vote Thursday, July 24 on a proposal that would see public charter school Sports Leadership Arts Management (SLAM) taking over the title to the Olympia and the adjacent 10-story building on condition of restoring the theater according to historic preservation requirements. SLAM was founded by music superstar Pitbull, of all people. Well, if anyone cares enough about Miami history to save a historic landmark from disuse, it's him. Under the agreement, the City of Miami would deed the theater to SLAM, which would cover the estimated $40 million in repair and renovation costs. The charter would use the theater for community events and student productions, while the building behind it would be used for classrooms. The newly announced plan would address critical structural repairs, modernize the building's technical systems, and restore its elaborate design. Miami Mayor Francis Suarez and city commissioners have emphasized the importance of preserving the Olympia not just as a historic site, but as a site that could host concerts, theater, film, and community events, integrating it into revitalization efforts already underway throughout downtown Miami. If all goes according to plan, the Olympia Theater could reopen in time to celebrate its 100th anniversary, restored to the splendor that once captivated generations and ready to inspire new ones.

New trendy flavour of iconic Fox's chocolate biscuit is hitting Tesco shelves
M&S has also recently brought back its Dubai-style snack CRUNCH TIME New trendy flavour of iconic Fox's chocolate biscuit is hitting Tesco shelves Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SWEET-TOOTHED shoppers are flocking to get their hands on a new biscuit inspired by a huge 2025 flavour craze. Fox's has launched its own twist on the popular Dubai-style chocolate. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Fox's have launched their Dubai-style chocolate biscuits And to make things even sweeter, they are being sold in Tesco for just £2.65 for Clubcard customers. If you don't have a Clubcard, the limited edition biccies are £3 per pack. Fox's is the first mainstream confectionery brand to marry the luxurious pistachio filling with a biscuit. Originating from the UAE's luxury capital, Dubai-style chocolate blends Middle Eastern heritage with lavish presentation, often featuring ingredients like saffron, rose, pistachio, cardamom, camel milk, and even edible gold leaf. The craze, which started gaining popularity in 2010, has now found its way to the UK through luxury retailers, travel influencers, and foodies keen to explore global flavours. Chocolatiers in London, Manchester, and beyond have since begun crafting their own takes on Dubai-style confections, often marketing them as premium gifts or special-occasion treats. One of the most common fillings is knafeh, which is made from a crispy shredded filo pastry. Pistachio cream is also spread through the sweet chocolate, adding a nutty flavour to cut through the sweetness. Fox's biscuits make the flavour accessible for all budgets, and they are perfect with a cup of tea. Earlier this year, M&S shoppers were delighted when the retailer decided to bring back their take on the treat. Just like 'Dubai chocolate', M&S' chocolate bar - the Big Daddy - features a milk chocolate shell filled with a scrumptious green pistachio filling. The supermarket took to Instagram to share: 'Our VIRAL Big Daddy Pistachio is BACK in stock and has your name written all over it! 'If you missed out the first time, we'll forgive you, but don't let yourself miss out again on this heavenly bar of signature rich, creamy milk chocolate layered with gooey sweet and salty caramel, filled with a chunky pistachio layer with roasted pistachios, velvety pistachio creme and a light, biscuit crumb. 'Snack responsibly… or don't, we're not judging.' The Big Daddy Pistachio is actually an update on Marks and Spencer's insanely popular Big Daddy bar that had shoppers in a frenzy in 2024. This comes after a Dubai-style product was urgently recalled following a dangerous health risk. Shoppers were warned not to eat the popular sweet treat. The Food Standards Agency warned that the Neosis Schokolade Love of Dubai chocolate contains peanuts. But this is not mentioned on the label, making it a possible health risk to anyone with an allergy to the nut. Shops selling the chocolate are warned to "immediately stop sales and to undertake product withdrawals". The FSA said: "The product presents a serious risk to anyone with an allergy to peanuts." Businesses have been supplied these products by a company called Black Sea Trading Ltd, "who have so far been uncontactable". The FSA added: "Don't buy this product, and if you have bought it, don't eat it, especially if you have a peanut allergy. "Dispose of the product at home and get in touch with your local Trading Standards in Great Britain or Environmental Health Officers in Northern Ireland, to let them know where you purchased it."
