Rod Stewart, the legendary rock and roll icon, is celebrated not just for his music but also for his large family. Among his eight children, Ruby Stewart shines especially bright. Born during his relationship with model Kelly Emberg between 1983 and 1990, Ruby had an early taste of the spotlight, performing “Sweet Little Rock and Roller” with her father at just seven years old. Although offered a record deal at thirteen, her parents believed she was too young, so Ruby initially pursued modeling before fully embracing her musical talents.
By 2010, Ruby had co-founded Revoltaire, an LA-based band. Her musical journey continued, and in 2012, she recorded the English version of “Whatever Lola Wants” for a Pepsi ad. In 2016, Ruby joined forces with Alyssa Bonagura to form The Sisterhood Band, which led to a standout moment in 2018 when Ruby and Sir Rod performed “Forever Young” together at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. Their harmonized vocals during the chorus revealed their undeniable musical chemistry. Watch their performance below:
The performance was further elevated by a dynamic drumming segment and Celtic influences, setting the perfect stage for Sir Rod and The Sisterhood’s captivating return. According to a review by *The Tennessean*, after the performance, Ruby thanked her father, and Rod, beaming with pride, expressed his admiration for his daughter’s journey, humorously referencing her rebellious teen years by calling her a “little sh—.”
Fans quickly praised the performance online, applauding the drummers’ synchronization, hailing Stewart as a living legend, and celebrating the undeniable talent of the father-daughter duo.
