Rossdale and Stefani welcomed Kingston in May 2006, four years after they tied the knot in London.

The duo went on to welcome sons Zuma, 15, and Apollo, 10, in 2008 and 2014, respectively, before calling it quits in 2015.

The L.A.M.B. designer has moved on with husband Blake Shelton, whom she married in 2021, while Rossdale recently made headlines for his girlfriend, Xhoana X, looking like Stefani.

“you’re telling me that’s not Gwen Stefani?!” one X user asked after the couple’s Mexico vacation photos went viral earlier this month, with another calling the 35-year-old’s resemblance to his ex-wife “bizarre.”

Stefani and Rossdale have only given rare insight into their dynamic over the years, but the guitarist did say last year that they “don’t really” co-parent.

He is also the father of 35-year-old daughter Daisy with fashion designer Pearl Lowe.
