Penny Lancaster cut a stylish figure as she joined Pierce Brosnan and Dame Helen Mirren attending the King's Trust Carol Concert 2025 on Monday night.

The model and television personality, 54, looked more than ready for the festive season in a beige fur coat and gold suit for the event held at St Paul's Church in Knightsbridge.

She completed the look with a warm roll neck jumper as she posed by a beautifully-decorated Christmas tree upon arrival.

The King's Trust (formerly the Prince's Trust) was founded in 1976 by King Charles to help young people who may be disadvantaged and the carol concert raises money for the charity.

Actress Dame Helen, 80, meanwhile wore a festive green velvet coat with gold button detailing.

Actor Pierce, 72, cut a smart figure in a navy suit as he posed with the two glamorous ladies.

Also in attendance was former Love Island star Tasha Ghouri who wore stylish leather shorts. 

Penny's festive outing comes after she broke down in tears as she recounted her and Rod Stewart's emotional love story in a new BBC festive special. 

The couple met back in 1999 when Penny was a student at Barking College, and Rod, now 80, was performing.

After welcoming their first son Alistair, 20, in 2005 the pair went on to tie the knot in 2007 before welcoming their second son Aiden, 14, in 2011. 

And looking back at their love story for the first episode of series two of Anita Rani's My Life At Christmas, Penny was overcome with emotion as she repeatedly broke down throughout the interview, while Rod even shed a tear himself. 

Discussing how they first met, Penny revealed it wasn't until nine months after exchanging numbers that Rod reached out to her.

They originally met in the wake of Rod's divorce to his second wife Rachel Hunter, who he was married to from 1990 until 2006.

And anticipating that his best pal wasn't ready to meet the love of his life yet, Rod's band leader Carmine Appice withheld Penny's number from the musician until he was in a better place.

Recalling the story, Rod explained: 'He was an absolute gentleman, he was band leader and bass player and he kept her telephone away from me. 

'He didn't think I was in the right position because I had just got a divorce and didn't know if I was coming or going and he said I will give it to you when I think you are ready.'

He joked: 'I should of fired him but I couldn't!'

Penny then began to well up with tears as she added: 'Carmine had kept that telephone number away from him. 

'He said "you are going to go a bit crazy over the summer and let your hair down and Penny seems like a nice girl".'

After hearing nothing from her future husband, she explained: 'I really thought that was the last I would see of Rod. I remember processing those photos I took of Rod [at his concert] and thinking, what a lovely memory and that was that.'

However once Rod was ready he reached out and the pair began dating and Penny was welcomed into his blended family. 

Prior to welcoming two sons with Penny, Rod was already a father to six children from previous relationships. 

The star put his first child up for adoption, Sarah, 62, who he welcomed with his ex-girlfriend Susannah Boffey when he was just 17, he later formed a relationship with her.

He then had daughter Kimberly, 46, and son Sean, 45, with his ex-wife Alana Stewart and a daughter Ruby, 38, with his ex-girlfriend Kelly Emberg.

While married to his ex-wife Rachel Hunter, the Faces frontman had two more children, Renee, 33, and Liam, 31.

Opening up about what it was like stepping into that dynamic, Penny once again broke down in tears as she admitted she is now in a place with his children that she 'never thought I would get'. 

Explaining what it was like to enter into the family she said: 'I tiptoed very lightly. Because there were lots of personalities, and more important there were children ranging from all ages.

'From Liam who was five when we first met through to teenagers to Kimberly who was just about to turn 21 so it was delicate and they were children from different mothers. 

'It was a scenario I had never faced before and I thought I need to stay in the background but be present and there if they want to approach me.

'I just wanted to take my time and it took a long time,' attempting to hold back her sobs she continued, 'but we got there and we have got to a place that I never thought I would get to with them.'

Rod added: 'I must admit the kids adore her now, they look for her for advice.'
