Gwen Steffani, Ex Gavin Rossdale Spotted Spending Time With Son, Guitarist Opens Up About Co-Parenting

Gwen Stefani and her ex-husband Gavin Rossdale were spotted supporting their son at his flag football game, working their way around co-parenting despite having different love interests.

According to reports, Stefani went all-in to support her son, Apollo's flag football game by showing up complete with a foldable lawn chair!

The 53-year-old singer was also seen sporting a paint-splattered pair of jeans, a long-sleeved cropped top, and a baseball cap. Behind them was the 56-year-old guitarist who happily trailed along, sporting a white top, cargo pants, and pair of sunglasses.

The two share three children, namely Kingston, 16, Zuma, 14, and Apollo, 8. Since their divorce, they have been co-parenting the children.

Co-Paenting

Rossdale revealed how he manages to co-parent with his ex-wife, "I think it's all about just the time you spend with them."

His busy schedule paired with the children's busy schedule has taken a slight toll, he noted. "It's just unfortunate sometimes they have school and they have to be elsewhere [...] everything is better when they're there."

However, the guitarist has taken measures to make sure that the lost time will be made up by quality bonding. According to reports, last summer, he brought his children to several Bush concerts.

He further explained that they have been learning from all their exposure during the concerts, adding that their shows are "pretty physical and expressive," thus giving the children more to explore.

"[...] It's really fun to just create that in a show and have that sensation everywhere and for them to experience that."

"All you want is for your kids to kind of be impressed by you or get the vote of confidence. I would hate it if they thought I sucked," he jokingly added.

The little family get-together included Rossdale's girlfriend, Courtlyn Cannan, reports noted. However, not in attendance was Stefani's now-hubby Blake Shelton.

Stefani and Rossdale tied the knot in 2002. After 13 years of marriage, the "Rich Girl" singer filed for divorce after finding out that Rossdale was having an affair with their nanny, reports say.

In an interview with The Guardian, Rossdale revealed that he considered that "the gross and lopsided specter of the crumbling of [his] marriage" to the singer was his "most embarrassing moment."

However, with that now all water under the bridge, the two have moved on and found love elsewhere.

Rossdale had nothing but nice things to say about his previous marriage and the "The Sweet Escape" singer. "We had 20 years together and that in itself is pretty incredible."

"It's a lifetime. I still think she's incredible. It was a lovely 20 years and we have three amazing children. There were a lot of positives, and with time they'll become more and more obvious," he told People Magazine.
