It has been announced that music legend Rod Stewart will release his autobiography in October 2012.

The rocker has signed a joint deal with Random House Group and Random House Inc. to publish his highly sought-after memoirs next year.

The Grammy winner will open up about his early days in The Jeff Beck Group and The Faces, as well as his love life, which includes marriages to Alana Hamilton, Rachel Hunter and Penny Lancaster.

The 66 year-old has put off writing an autobiography for years, but insists it’s time to reveal all to his fans.

He says, "I thought long and hard before committing to write my book. It is a funny old thing telling my life story but I truly intend to hold nothing back. I’ve had quite a life, known some extraordinary people and had some amazing experiences.

"I’ve waited all this time, until my 50th year in the business and realise I can no longer put it off. Forget skeletons in the closet; this one’s going to be socks and knickers under the bed."
