At age 60, Rod Stewart is a father again.

His fiancee, Penny Lancaster, gave birth to a baby boy early Sunday morning at a London hospital, the couple announced Monday. The baby, who is their first child, weighed 7 pounds, 7 ounces.

"Both Penny and our baby son are gorgeous, healthy and doing well," Stewart said in a statement. "I am so very proud of my girl Pen for the commitment, courage and strength she showed throughout."

Lancaster, a 34-year-old model/photographer, said the birth "was the most empowering and spiritual experience of my life."

"It means so much to Rod and I that we were able to keep to our birthing plan and have our baby naturally," she said.
