At one point, Gavin Rossdale and Gwen Stefani were music royalty.
People thought of them as relationship goals, and their 2002 wedding (which included Stefani wearing an iconic pink dress by John Galliano for Dior) was one of the most-talked-about celebrity events.
The couple were together for almost 13 years and share three sons, but then, in August 2015, they announced their decision to split.
It’s been a long time since their split, and they have both moved on. Stefani is married to Blake Shelton, and Rossdale, well, he’s dating someone who looks a lot like his ex-wife.
Who Is Gavin Rossdale Dating?
Gavin Rossdale is dating Xhoana X (and has been since 2023), and photos of their holiday in Cabo San Lucas were obtained by Page Six. It is worth noting the striking similarity between Xhoana X and Gwen Stefani. It’s not just their appearance but also their style, with their platinum blonde hair and signature red lipstick. Despite this, the couple looked incredibly affectionate toward each other on their holiday, and they appeared to be happy.
This is not the first time that the similarity has been noted. Rossdale previously posted a picture of himself and his girlfriend on Instagram in March 2024. The post was in celebration of Xhoana X’s birthday. “Hey finally got to have a birthday dinner with my girl @xhoana_x,” the musician captioned the picture. “Here’s to a year filled with magic for you.” Fans reacted with shock. “So you cheated on Gwen and got a knockoff version? Weird,” one person wrote. “We’re all thinking it, right?” another commented.
Other comments on the post included, “Gwen from Temu,” “For two seconds there, I thought that was Gwen, lol. He certainly has a type,” and “There’s only one Gwen; the rest are wannabes.” Many people believe that the two women are incredibly similar, but appearances aside, there are other similarities between them. Xhoana X is a singer, who, interestingly, has also mentioned No Doubt in one of her earlier interviews.
“Musically, I’ve been exposed to so much more than I would have been exposed to if I hadn’t moved around,” she told CelebMix in a 2021 interview. “When I came here in ’96, there was Tupac, Biggie, and No Doubt, and then Prodigy and Radiohead, so just massive nonstop inspiration, which I’m massively grateful for. I think you hear it all in my music — the attitude, the rebellion, the nostalgia, the vulnerability, the eclecticism.”
Why Did Gavin Rossdale And Gwen Stefani Split?
Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale announced their decision to split in a joint statement to People. “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.
It has also been reported that Rossdale allegedly cheated on Stefani with their family nanny. Stefani touched on the dissolution of her marriage in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar. She admitted to finding out about the alleged affair in 2015. “February 9,” she said. “I obviously know the date.”
“It was the beginning of hell,” she told the publication. “Like six, seven, eight months of torture, trying to figure out this big secret.” She also admitted to wanting to “tell everybody,” but chose not to because they share three children.
