Gwen Stefani finds it ‘impossible’ to co-parent three children with ex Gavin Rossdale, years after their messy divorce
GWEN Stefani is struggling to co-parent her three children with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale years after her messy divorce.
Earlier this week, the Don’t Speak artist posted videos of her husband Blake Shelton, 46, spending time with her and their youngest son.

While co-parenting is never easy for the parties involved, Gwen’s ex-husband – Bush frontman Gavin – has apparently made the delicate situation even more difficult, as reported by radar.
A source told the outlet, “Gavin continues to make co-parenting with Gwen Stefani impossible. And their three children suffer because of it.”
Gwen, 53, and Gavin, 57, married in 2002 and were married for 13 years before the couple divorced in 2015.
During that time, the then-couple had three sons together — Kingston, 15, Zuma, 14, and Apollo, 9, — who they now have joint custody of.
The source revealed that Gavin appeared to have given the No Doubt frontwoman “mixed signals,” such as telling his ex-wife that “she looks really pretty,” which “just messes up Gwen.”
The insider also revealed that the rock star hasn’t tried to develop a relationship with his sons’ stepdad Blake either.
Gwen married the country music star in 2021, years after splitting from Gavin.
The source revealed that the rocker has never spent time with Blake and avoids contact with The Voice coach “beyond the wave” altogether.
The insider explained that “it’s really weird” and that “the kids are always in the thick of it, and it’s really sad.”
Reportedly, Gwen wanted to take her sons to Blake’s ranch in Oklahoma “where they’re all the happiest,” but the source says Gavin “won’t let that happen.”
FAMILY TIME
On Sunday, Gwen shared videos of her son Apollo and Blake playing with their new furry friends.
The singer posted the cute clips on her Instagram Stories.
In one, Gwen snapped a photo of Apollo posing with his cousin in the backyard of the family’s Los Angeles mansion.
The boy smiled for the camera and wore a stepdad Blake concert t-shirt, gray shorts and bare feet while his long brunette locks flowed down.
In the next clip, Gwen filmed her son and several other children sitting on the grass while numerous kittens roamed the garden.
She zoomed in on the little cats navigating the grass adorably.
In another video, the hitmaker once again turned the lens on their new arrivals and showed them roaming free.
In the last story, Blake sat on a patio chair while several kittens crawled on top of him.
Blake seemed to enjoy the attention of her new pets while making sure they stayed on his lap.
At one point, the country star playfully yelled, “Ow!” while another kitten was placed on his shoulder.
ADORABLE ADDITIONS
Gwen shared similar videos of the family’s new kittens days earlier while her children enjoyed her company.
The performer was heard saying: “You look so cute in the grass. The first time in the sun. They are so cute and don’t know what to do.”
She continued to post more videos of the kittens playing together and exploring their new surroundings.
The star also called on the “mommy kitties” to hang out with the family outside.
As she films the kittens eating after a long day in the sun, Gwen said, “It’s my Sunday.”
BIG CHANGE
The family has had a lot to celebrate lately as Blake received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame over the weekend.
Gwen paid tribute to her husband at the ceremony and posed for photos with their three sons.
And on Monday, it was announced that Gwen is returning to her red chair as a coach on The Voice for next season.
She will return after her husband resigns from his longtime coaching job at the end of this season.
Blake will be replaced by legendary country artist Reba McEntire.
Gwen and Reba are also joined by returning trainers John Legend and Niall Horan.
