Rod Stewart has set the record straight amid rumours of "disharmony" in his marriage to Penny Lancaster.

On Wednesday, editors at MailOnline claimed the rockstar and his wife were "desperately" trying to work on their relationship and had reached a "stalemate" over whether they should continue living in Los Angeles or move back to the U.K.

However, Rod took to Instagram on Thursday to insist that the allegations were "erroneous".

"We wanted to put the record straight. There is absolutely no rift between Penny and I and no disagreement over where we should reside, in fact, it's the opposite," he said. "We moved permanently back to our beloved Britain a year ago but are fortunate to also have homes in different countries, which we love to visit. Originally, we did think it made sense to sell our house in L.A., but having spent a wonderful time there this summer with family and friends during my Vegas residency, we realised that it makes sense to keep our house there."

Rod went on to note that two of his children still live at the home in L.A., dubbed Celtic House.

And to conclude, the British singer insisted he is a "lucky man".

"Penny and I could not be more in love with each other after 27 glorious years. Please trust me on this...there's no disharmony in our marriage," the 79-year-old added.

Rod and Penny, 53, wed in 2007 and share two sons; Alastair, 18, and Aiden, 13.

The Maggie May hitmaker also has six other children from previous relationships.

Rod wrapped on his latest residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas earlier this month.
