Car hire company to sue Rod Stewart’s son over trashed Bentley

A car hire company in California is suing Rod Stewart’s son, Sean, for over £100,000 for loss of rental earnings after the 30-year-old allegedly crashed the luxury car on Sunset Boulevard last September.

The state of the art Bentley sports car was hired under Sean Stewart’s fiancé’s name, Chantal Kendall. At the time of the accident it was claimed that Sean was a passenger in the car and that the car was being driven by a female driver.

The car rental firm is now seeking damages against the son of the singer totalling £133,000 which includes costs for damage to the Bentley hire car, and also costs for loss of rental earnings from the vehicle after it was taken off the road for repair.

Legal documents were filed in Los Angeles last month and claim that the Bentley hire car was crashed on Sunset Boulevard in September. Although the vehicle was hired out to Sean’s fiancé, the legal papers claim that Sean was driving the car at the time of the crash.  

The 30-year-old son of Rod Stewart has had a chequered past having been jailed for 90 days back in 2002 for assaulting a man, and has also been accused of car theft and assault with a deadly weapon in the past. Sean, who is the son of Rod Stewart with his wife Alana, has also appeared on Celebrity Rehab.
