Gwen Stefani files for divorce from Gavin Rossdale
No Doubt singer and The Voice coach Gwen Stefani has filed for divorce from husband Gavin Rossdale, lead singer of the band Bush, after nearly 13 years of marriage.
TMZ reports that Stefani cited irreconcilable differences in her divorce petition, and is asking for joint custody of the couple's three young children. She also checked a box on the form denying Rossdale spousal support. Rossdale filed his response at the same time, and is also asking for joint custody.
In a statement, the pair said, "While the two of us have come to the mutual decision that we will no longer be partners in marriage, we remain partners in parenthood and are committed to jointly raising our three sons in a happy and healthy environment." This news made it official: Love is dead. Catherine Garcia
