Rod Stewart’s son Aiden was rushed to hospital in an ambulance after a suspected heart attack.
The musician revealed that his 11-year-old son had been playing a game of football when he collapsed.
The 77-year-old singer explained that his son had actually been having a panic attack.
“We thought my boy had a heart attack,” Stewart told FourFourTwo magazine.
“He was going blue and was unconscious until he calmed down. It was scary, but it turned out to be a panic attack,” he continued.
“The lad wanted to do well, pulled on the Hoops in Scotland for his dad.”
Stewart also told how another young player had also been injured during the game: “Another boy fell backwards and banged his head - he’s still not back. “
“In all of my days watching football, that’s the only time two ambulances had been called,” he added.
Aiden is Stewart’s youngest child of eight children with five different women. He shares his youngest sons Aiden and Alistair, 17, with English model Penny Lancaster-Stewart.
He had his first daughter, Sarah Streeter, 57, when he was just 17 and he and her mother Susannah Boffey made the decision at the time to give her up for adoption.
Stewart recently shared the sad news of the death of his brother Bob, only two months after his eldest brother Don had died.
The musician shared the news via social media on 30 November writing: “It’s with great sadness that I announce the loss of my brother Bob last night, who joins my brother Don on the great football pitch in the sky.”
“I’ve lost two of my best mates in the space of two months. RIP Don and Bob, “irreplaceable buddies’.”
