What is going on this summer?!
Another one of our favorite couples has reportedly called it quits, with Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale the latest to file for divorce. According to TMZ, the couple is ending their 13-year marriage and Gwen cited irreconcilable differences on the divorce filing.
"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," they said in a statement. "To that end, we respectfully request privacy from the media during this time." This is too much.
Gwen and Gavin are both asking for joint custody of their three children, 9-year-old Kingston, 6-year-old Zuma and 1-year-old Apollo. They reportedly had no prenup, so it looks like they'll be splitting their assets 50/50 under California law. The No Doubt singer is said to be worth $80 million and Gavin is worth an estimated $35 million.
The estranged couple has been fighting off split rumors for quite some time now, with Rossdale even slamming tabloid break-up reports last year, calling the stories "so mean spirited," adding that the stories were "the biggest load of bullsh*t." We really hoped it was, considering how much we loved these two together.
Gwen and Gavin are the latest superstar couple to call it quits this summer, following on the heels of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner's break-up, and Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert's divorce too.Just call this the summer of the shocking split.
