A recent photo of Ringo Starr, the drummer from the Beatles, and his 48-year-old son has gone viral.

The reason why is because Ringo, 75, looks younger, or as young, as his son, Jason Starkey. They stepped out in Chelsea on Wednesday when the photos were taken, MailOnline reported.

Ringo, who was born Richard Starkey Jr., flashed the peace sign as he was walking.

He celebrated his 75th birthday last July.

Speaking recently with the Times of London, he admitted to having developed a serious drinking problem after the Beatles broke up in 1970. He finally entered rehab in 1988.

In a Variety interview, he said he’s in good health because he’s a vegetarian. “I believe that helps,” he said at the time. “I also work out most days,” he said, adding that he meditates daily, a practice that dates back to the Summer of Love in 1967.
