Ronnie Wood bumps noses with pal Rod Stewart in hilarious snaps from the rocker’s 80th birthday dinner as fans beg duo for a Faces reunion

 Ronnie Wood delighted Faces fans on Sunday as he shared a slew of snaps from his pal Rod Stewart’s birthday bash at the weekend.

The Rolling Stones star, 77, took to his Instagram to share glimpses inside the rocker’s swanky dinner at Mount Street Restaurant on Saturday to mark his 80th.

And among the beaming pH๏τos, Ronnie posted a hilarious clip of him and Rod pressing their noses against one another, before bursting into laughter.

The pair are often mistaken to be related because of their similar noses and often take the opportunity to poke fun at the ᴀssumptions.

Ronnie caught the eye in a Versace shirt and polka dotted blazer, while Rod was as dapper as ever in black and gold suit over a white shirt left partially unʙuттoned.

The Maggie May star showed his love for his beloved Celtic with a special Hoops-themed birthday badge.

The duo were both joined by their glamourous wives, with Rod’s wife Penny Lancaster, 53, putting on a very busty display in a plunging metallic dress, while Ronnie’s wife Sally, 47, looked elegant in a floaty black and gold maxi dress.

Captioning the snaps, Ronnie wrote: ‘Really fun night celebrating Rod’s 80th!’

Rod and Ronnie have been friends since 1969 when they were both members of rock group Faces.

Although the band parted ways in 1975, the pair kept in touch, with Rod serving as best man to Ronnie’s wedding to Sally in 2012.

Ronnie’s post sparked excitement from the band’s fans, as they begged to the duo to bring Faces back for a reunion.

Taking to the comments, they wrote: ‘Sooo when’s the Faces reunion tour?’; ‘How I wish these two would work together again!’; ‘Love these legends faces reunion please! ❤️’.

And they may just get their wish, after Rod revealed that he and Ronnie have reunited with fellow Faces bandmate Kenney Jones, 76, for a documentary and are trying to make a new album.

Speaking on the Soccer A-Z podcast in November, he said: ‘I’m meeting up with the last two members of the Faces tomorrow, and we’re working on a documentary, because next year will be our 50th anniversary, or 60s.

‘I don’t know what it is, but when The Faces were together, and we’re trying to put out an album. So I shall be with Mr. Woods and Mr. Jones.’

The rocker is also continuing to work on his own solo gigs with plenty of shows lined up this year.

He said: ‘As far as gigs, I got three before Christmas, then next year is really, really busy over the US and Europe. 

‘I love it, I love it, I’ve got the best job in the world… I’m happy, I have a drink after the show and I get paid for it. What a job. 

The Faces – which formed in 1969 – released their final album Ooh La La in 1973, and they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame back in 2012. 

The five-piece band formed in 1969 and also included bᴀssist Ronnie Lane, who died in 1997 after battling with multiple sclerosis, and keyboardist Ian McLagan, who died last December following a stroke.

Famous for huge hits such as Stay With Me in 1971 and Ooh La La in 1973, the long-haired rockers also gained a reputation for their off-stage antics involving alcohol, groupies and wrecked H๏τel rooms.

But with Ronnie departing from the band in 1975 to become a full-time member of the Rolling Stones, Rod eventually dissolved the group officially at the end of that year.

The group previously reunited in 2015, with Rod saying at the time: ‘Getting back on stage with the lads playing Stay with Me and other favourites will be a blast and will make this a very special night.

‘Being in The Faces was a mad and brilliant time for all of us and although we don’t have Ronnie and Mac with us anymore this is our chance to remember them and say Had Me a Real Good Time.’

Kenney added: ‘The years of The Faces were some of the best of my life and I’m so proud to have been a part of the band.

The original members were set to reunite for their 2012 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but Rod was forced to pull out of the gig when he came down with the flu.
