Kelly Emberg (born July 2, 1959) was born in Houston, Texas, and attended Stratford High School where she was a member of the school’s female drill team, the Spartanaires. She did some modeling during high school and was “discovered” by John Casablancas who brought her to New York City where her print career took off.
Emberg was at the top of her career when she began dating Rod Stewart in 1983, a highly successful all-American blonde fashion model who appeared in hundreds of print layouts including the Sports Illustrated swimsuit editions, Calvin Klein and Armani in the Eighties.
Daughter Ruby was born in 1987, with Stewart ordering their Bel Air mansion filled with pink roses, the new mum’s favourite blooms. By 1990, there were rumours the relationship was under strain due to Rod’s hesitation over walking down the aisle. By summer of that year, the celebrity couple had split up. Stewart insisted it was Emberg’s decision to break off the relationship: “She had another geezer”. Emberg filed a $25-million palimony suit in early 1991, which was settled in 1993 for an undisclosed amount.
Emberg is now an interior designer and owns a company called The Cotton Box, with a shop on Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles. Her biggest client is Rod Stewart. Emberg created the interior designs for the guest house on his Los Angeles estate in which Ruby, along with Kimberly and Sean, Stewart’s children by Alana Hamilton, live.
