Rod Stewart wrapped up his tour in Edinburgh, UK, with an unexpected surprise. During his performance on July 10, 2023, the 78-year-old musician shared the stage with his remarkable 94-year-old sister, Mary.

Another expressed the feeling, saying “Rod had me at Maggie May, he’s still got it and what a man, proudly having his 94 yr old sister on stage with him! How touching was that!”
During a later interview with The Mirror, the renowned “Maggie May” singer expressed the profound significance of having his sister by his side on stage. He shared, “At 94, she’s on a rock ‘n’roll stage and loving it,” he said. “She has and continues to teach me about life.”
