Things continued being good between the lovers cum parents until news came out that the Bush front man was having an affair with his children’s nanny, Mindy Mann. This rumour was never confirmed by the people involved but it became one of the reasons for the end of Stefani’s 13-year marriage with Rossdale. The period surrounding her divorce was very emotional for the music goddess as a happy family had always been her dream. She had wanted what her parents had and was broken when hers came to a halt.
They settled for an unequal division of their assets and a peaceful separation for the sake of their kids. Not long into her life-after-divorce, she met with someone who was in the same boat and whom she was able to relate with on a personal level – Blake Shelton, her ‘co-worker’ at the time.
