Before Gwen Stefani entered marital bliss with country singer Blake Shelton, she was married to Bush singer and frontman Gavin Rossdale for 13 years. The couple ultimately called it quits in 2015, but according to Stefani, her feelings about her and Rossdale's marriage were so strong that it made it all the way to one of her 2006 hit "The Sweet Escape" without her even realizing it.

“It makes me cry,” Stefani said of the song in an interview with NYLON. “I listen to the lyrics of that song, and it’s like, ‘Whoa!’ There was so much loaded f--king stuff in that song that was going on in my private life that it’s just crazy. It’s foreshadowing the future.”

During their marriage, Stefani and Rossdale welcome three children — Kingston, 17, Zuma, 15, and Apollo, 10. While the cause for their split was officially labelled as "irreconcilable differences," rumors of Rossdale cheating with his and Stefani's nanny just after giving birth at the hospital started circulating, which a source close to him claimed was “100-percent untrue" in a quote to People.

One year after Stefani and Rossdale's split, she spoke with The New York Times and played coy about the details regarding their separation, at the time saying “if I could, I would just tell you everything, and you would just be in shock,” she said. “It’s a really good, juicy story.”

Now, Stefani is in a healthier relationship with Shelton, despite being hit with separation rumors in the past couple of months. The No Doubt singer insists that any negative updates regarding her relationship with the country star is just tabloid fodder.

"You can say whatever you want to say about our relationship — I mean, a week ago we were getting divorced again or something,” she explained. “It’s just lies. The truth is the truth, and we know what that is. And so that [negativity] would never penetrate just by me being vulnerable and sharing a song that I didn’t write for anybody else but myself and Blake.”
