Gwen Stefani, the iconic singer and fashion designer, is the proud mother of three sons: Kingston James McGregor Rossdale, Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale, and Apollo Bowie Flynn Rossdale. Born during her marriage to Gavin Rossdale, lead singer of the rock band Bush, the boys have grown up in the spotlight. Despite their parents' divorce in 2016, Stefani and Rossdale maintain a positive co-parenting relationship, and both have spoken warmly about their children. Since marrying country star Blake Shelton in 2021, Stefani has blended her family, with Shelton taking an active role as a stepfather.
Kingston Rossdale: The Firstborn Musician
Kingston James McGregor Rossdale was born on May 26, 2006, at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. Now 20 years old, he has inherited his parents' musical talent. Introduced to classic punk bands like Gang of Four by his father, Kingston began writing songs and performing publicly. In August 2023, he performed at Blake Shelton's Oklahoma bar, Ole Red, impressing his mother with his songwriting skills. Stefani told People magazine, "King has been writing a bunch of amazing songs. When it's your kid, it's like you love everything, but this is next level to me." She added, "I was bawling. It's crazy when you have children, and they learn what their gift is." Beyond music, Kingston has a keen fashion sense, earning a spot on GQ's list of the Most Stylish Young Men Under 30 in 2023. He has been in a long-term relationship with makeup influencer Lola Albert since 2017.
Zuma Rossdale: The Humorous Second Son
Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale was born on August 21, 2008, in Los Angeles. Now 17, he is known for his great sense of humor, according to his mother. His father describes him as the toughest of the three boys, recalling an incident where Zuma broke both arms within six weeks. Like his older brother, Zuma has a passion for music, though his taste leans toward country and blues. He made his stage debut in July 2024 at Shelton's Nashville bar, performing a cover of Zach Bryan's song Oklahoma Smokeshow while playing guitar. His father jokingly told Us Weekly, "It is the last thing I want to hear in my house, really, to be honest. Blues scales — there’s a specific pentatonic scale that rock and roll uses that we’ve never used in Bush. So he comes in and shows the pentatonic scale. I’m like, ‘Oh God’." Gavin added, "That’s how much I love him. I will support him in making any music. Even the blues."
Apollo Rossdale: The Youngest Miracle
Apollo Bowie Flynn Rossdale was born on February 28, 2014, in Los Angeles, making him 12 years old in 2026. As the youngest, he is still enjoying his childhood, though he too grows up in the public eye. In 2019, Stefani revealed on Entertainment Tonight that Apollo had started kindergarten, and despite her fears, he was excited. On The Skinny and Confidential podcast, she called his birth a "miracle" because she thought she was too old to have another child at 44. Apollo shares a close bond with his brothers and stepfather, Blake Shelton.
