Penny Lancaster loves spending time with her family and the clan have been having fun together in Los Angeles over the last few days.
The glamorous model took to her Instagram Stories on Sunday to share a glimpse into their holiday, posting a snapshot taken in the Sofi Stadium, where the Los Angeles Rams were playing.
Taken from the back, the photo showed Penny's 12-year-old son Aiden, and niece Raphaella, 19. As well as their youngest son, former star and her husband, Sir Rod Stewart, also share Alistair, 17, who is following in his mum's footsteps as a model.
Penny and Sir Rod married in Italy in 2007, making Penny a stepmother, which she described an exclusive interview with a few years later as a "learning curve".
The presenter told us: "When I first met my husband, his youngest was five and the oldest was 21. So I got to see the different stages that children go through and the challenges they hold, but the rewards as well."
She went on "It's been a learning curve but a wonderful one. It's so lovely that we're all so close and they all turn to me for advice, to talk about dad, boyfriends and career choices. It’s a big happy family now."
That was never more evident than earlier this year, when Penny shared her excitement over becoming a step-grandmother again. She took to her Instagram Stories to share the sweetest new photos of the latest additions to her family.
