    Rod Stewart has revealed that his son Aiden, 11, was rushed to hospital after he collapsed at a football match and "turned blue".

    The singer, 77, feared this his young son had suffered a heart attack after he was rushed away from his Young Hoops Under 12s team game in the back of an ambulance.

    Luckily, it had been a less serious panic attack, but Rod spoke of the "scary" moment in which he feared the worst.

    "We thought my boy had a heart attack," he 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."

    Rod said that Aiden "wanted to do well" and had "pulled on the Hoops in Scotland for his dad".

    That wasn't the only ambulance incident Rod witnessed at the football though, as he revealed that another young lad had fallen backwards and banged his head.

    Rod, who is married to Loose Women's Penny Lancaster, said: "In all of my days watching football, that's the only time two ambulances had been called."

    A panic attack can feature symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, a racing heartbeat and a faint feeling.

    Rod shares Aiden with his wife Penny, though he has seven other children.

    His eldest is Sarah Streeter, 59, whom he welcomed with his ex Susannah Boffey when he was 17 – however she was placed up for adoption before they reunited in 2007 after her adoptive parents died.

    Alana Stewart, 43, actually goes by her middle name Kimberly, and has followed into her father's showbusiness footsteps as a model, designer and television star.

    Sean Stewart, 42, is Rod's eldest son and went down the music route before appearing in the short-lived reality show Sons of Hollywood.

    Ruby Stewart, 35, is a singer too and has been part of two music groups – Revoltaire, and The Sisterhood, though both have disbanded.

    Renee Stewart, 30, has gone down the designing route after graduating from London Contemporary Dance School, releasing a line with Monarch Jewelry.

    Liam Stewart, 28, got bit by the sporting bug and pursued ice hockey, playing in the UK and New Zealand professionally.

    Alastair Stewart, born in 2005, is Rod's first child with Penny, and, like Aiden, lives his life away from the spotlight.
