Rod Stewart stands out on the street ironing a brown shirt

Rod Stewart demonstrated his domestic side over the weekend as he shared a snap of himself doing the ironing – out on the pavement.

The 76-year-old star took to Instagram during the dead of night on Saturday to share the image of himself stood beside an ironing board outside.

In his latest picture, the musician stood on the side of the road wearing a white shirt, a tweed waistcoat and a blue, green and yellow striped tie.

His outfit was finished off with a pair of khaki trousers and brown leather shoes. 

The star stood behind an ironing board working away on a brown shirt – though the iron wasn’t plugged in anywhere, with the end of the cable visibly swinging around beneath the board.

Also bizarrely, it seems as though Rod chose to pose behind the ironing board during the night time, with a powerful light casting a thick shadow behind him. 

Rod posted the picture alongside the caption: ‘”Ironing out the crease of life” #laundry #ironingboard’.

His latest Instagram picture comes after his wife Penny Lancaster revealed the downside to her new role – after obtaining her City of London police badge.

She admitted that her uniform and armour were so heavy that it left ‘sores on my love handles’. 

Speaking on Tuesday’s Loose Women, the model, 50, also told how her rocker husband Rod was ‘anxious’ about her going on the beat [on duty] for the first time.

Joining her fellow panelists Charlene White, Brenda Edwards and Jane Moore, Penny opened up about her first time stepping out as a qualified officer.

Detailing how her uniform left her aching, she said: ‘It is heavy.

‘I got sores on my love handles! It is really heavy.’

She went on: ‘But I got really fit for the mission. You have to make sure you can do the bleep test to a particular level.’

Meanwhile, Penny detailed Rod’s fears for her safety as she started work as an officer, telling how she alleviated his worries by promising she’d call.

She said: ‘He was anxious of course. Like anyone out on duty, we are putting our lives at risk but for a good cause.

‘I said don’t worry as soon as I am back at the station I will call.’

She continued: ‘Rod is still the rock star I met but he’s seen a lot of change in myself.

‘From turning into a mother of two and then changing career to be a police officer.

‘I couldn’t have gone ahead with that unless I had his support.’
