Early life


Born Alana Kaye Collins in San Diego, she grew up in Nacogdoches, Texas, and Houston,[3] before heading to New York to become a model.[2] She claimed to have grown up in poverty.[1][2] Collins signed with Ford Models and traveled to Los Angeles for many television and commercial appearances.[1]


Acting career


In the early 1970s, she began an acting career.[2] Her first role was a bit part in the biographical film Evel Knievel which starred her then-husband, George Hamilton.[2] She later appeared in small roles in television shows such as The Bionic Woman and Fantasy Island.[2]

In 1995, she and ex-husband George Hamilton hosted their own syndicated talk show, George & Alana.[4] The series was cancelled the following year.[5]

In 2003, Stewart was a contestant in the ABC reality series I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!.[6]

From 2006 to 2009, Stewart filmed and produced an Emmy-nominated 90-minute documentary, "Farrah's Story", chronicling her friend and fellow model Farrah Fawcett's battle with cancer.[7]

In 2012, she guest-starred in an episode of the Caruso|Portier web-series DeVanity as Claudia Muller, the mother of Lara Muller DeVanity and Dr. Portia Muller Roth.[8]


Political activities


In 2014, Alana, who is a Republican, endorsed her friend, Independent candidate Marianne Williamson, for U.S. Congress in California's 33rd district.[9]

Alana is a Trump supporter, having voted for him in 2016 and 2020.[10][11] Unlike most of her colleagues in Hollywood, she opposes restrictions on gun ownership, aside from "stringent background checks".[12] Post-divorce, she has lived alone and keeps her gun on her bedside table.[12]

Alana was a signatory of the bipartisan letter calling for Walmart to allow sales of the DVD and Blu-Ray discs of the 2019 political documentary No Safe Spaces.[13] After Fox News called the 2020 presidential election in Arizona for Joe Biden, she was among the list of conservatives who ceased supporting the news channel and switched to Newsmax.[11]


Personal life


She married actor George Hamilton in 1972. They had one child, a son named Ashley Hamilton. The couple divorced in 1975.[5]

In 1979, she married singer Rod Stewart. The couple had a daughter, Kimberly, and a son, Sean. Alana and Rod Stewart divorced in 1984, but she retained his surname.[14][15]

In the early 1990s, Stewart discovered she had the Epstein-Barr virus after having suffered from symptoms caused by the virus for two decades.[16] In 1994, she began speaking out about her illness and revealed that she removed her breast implants because she felt they contributed to her illness.[4]

Alana was a close friend of Farrah Fawcett, who died in 2009 after a long battle with cancer,[17] and she is the current President/CEO of the Farah Fawcett Foundation.[18] Her 2009 New York Times best seller My Journey with Farrah: A Story of Life, Love, and Friendship is dedicated to her journey with Fawcett.[1]

In 2012, she published a book titled Rearview Mirror: A Memoir, detailing her upbringing, early career as a model, her marriages and subsequent divorces, and the deaths of her mother and Fawcett.[1][2]
