Penny shared an insight into Liam's big day while chatting on Loose Women, revealing her pride as Alastair delivered his best man's speech.

"I was just so proud of him and I was like, 'That's a man,'" she added.

At the time, Rod marked the occasion with a post to Instagram. "I'm immensely proud to have witnessed the beautiful wedding ceremony of my son Liam to his bride Nicole," penned the rockstar. "What a wonderful union of The Stewart's and The Artukovich's. May they continue to find joy, love and laughter for as long as they may live and produce many more babies to join their little 1-year-old boy, Louie. @discostew94 @nicoleartukovich."

Rod's children clearly share close relationships, with Penny revealing that she organises an annual family holiday so that all the siblings can spend time together. "I think it's an effort in the end, when they do leave and find their independence, to try and find ways to pull them all back in," she began. "Luckily, I manage to get all of Rod's kids together at least once a year for a family vacation so we can all reconnect. It's such a special bond those kids all have together."
