While he may not be as much in the spotlight as his superstar father or model mother, Stewart is a bona fide celebrity in the sporting world. He is a gold medal-winning ice hockey player after representing Great Britain at the 2017 Division 1B Ice Hockey World Championship in Northern Ireland. He has played all over the world for teams such as the Spokane Chiefs, Alaska Aces, SkyCity Stampede and most recently Milton Keynes Lightning.

However, in July, MK Lightning announced Stewart's departure from the team, thanking him for his “incredible skill, dedication and passion for the ice.” The team's official statement also said they “look forward to the day you return to the ice in an MKL jersey.” Stewart, whose nickname is “Disco,” left the team after four years to “fully focus on family, parenting and 'real life.'”
