Gwen Stefani on Gavin Rossdale Split: You Have NO IDEA What Happened!

Gwen Stefani split from Gavin Rossdale after 13 years of marriage last summer.


Ever since, the singer has remained mostly mum regarding the basis for this divorce, focusing on co-parenting the three kids she and her estranged husband share. 



Here and there, however, Stefani has come out and hinted at the MAJOR DRAMA that played out last year between her and Rossdale.


In March, for example, Stefani told The New York Times that “my life was literally blown up into my face” the day after she performed at the Grammy Awards.


The artist said she would prefer to keep the details private, but emphasized that they were “juicy.”


And now it seems as if Stefani has chosen to squeeze more drops out of that juice… or something.


“Nobody except for my parents, the people involved, and whoever they told [know what happened],” Gwen says in the latest issue of Cosmopolitan, adding mysteriously:


“Nobody would believe it if I could really say what happened. I went through months and months of torture.”


It’s very hard to believe that Stefani isn’t referencing the rumor affair Rossdale had with the couple’s nanny, right?


Her name is Mindy Mann and chatter about the rocker banging the help has been circulating for months.


Stefani and Rossdale went on to finalize their divorce in October 2015; they continue to coparent their three sons: Kingston, 10, Zuma, 7, and Apollo, 2.


And the former No Doubt singer has since moved on romantically, of course, hitting the sheets these days with Blake Shelton.


She tells the magazine that rumors of their relationship were out there long before anything actually happened.


All thanks to The Voice producers.


“We were laughing our heads off when we saw the blind auditions. I love NBC, but they for sure edited stuff to look like we were flirting,” Stefani told Cosmopolitan.


“They chose to run with that story before anything was even real. I hardly knew him. But it was like it was in the air — happening before it happened.”



Shelton himself had just split from Miranda Lambert when he got together with his co-star on the NBC singing competition.


“We were both having trust issues, as you would if you were us. It was like, ‘I have so many problems. How can I now be getting into another potentially huge problem? What am I doing?"” Stefani told Cosmo.


She then explained that a professional favor led to a personal connection when they collaborated on the track “Go Ahead and Break My Heart.”


“Blake wrote the song and sent it to me. He was like, ‘Help me finish it.’ I wrote a verse and sent it to him, but he was gone because he doesn’t live in L.A.


“He didn’t have WiFi, so he wasn’t answering me back! As soon as he came back to town, he brought his guitar over. We were like, ‘We wrote a song together! This is crazy!"”


Even crazier? Those two are now totally in love!


And Gavin Rossdale, if he really did cheat on Stefani with a nanny, is totally in our perpetual doghouse.


Man Spits in Wife"s Face Over Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Gets Arrested

A man in Georgia has been arrested for reacting to his wife’s cooking in a very inappropriate manner.







The incident took place in Clarke County on Wednesday and it centered on 55-year old James DePaola.


More specifically, it centered on the misguided, over-the-top temper of 55-year old James DePaola.


According to the Athens-Clarke County police department, DePaola started screaming at his wife because he was displeased with the way in which she made his grilled cheese.


James asked for two slices of cheese on the sandwich; his wife used three slices of cheese on the sandwich; and this was deemed unacceptable.


James allegedly spit in his wife’s face during the dispute, causing such an uproar that the couple’s 12-year old daughter called 911.


She told an operator that her dad hit her mother and pulled the phone out of the wall


(She called for help from a cell phone.)


Once authorities arrived, DePaola admitted to pulling the phone from the wall because he said he did not want his wife to call 911 for a “stupid” reason.


(And someone who attacks another person over an extra slice of cheese knows all about stupid reasons.)


The wife, Michele DePaola, told police officers that James has a history of violent and abusive behavior toward her; it has resulted in him being arrested in the past and served with a restraining order.







Michele added that he has not been physically abusive to her in a long time, although he does often control her via criticisms, shouting and cursing.


In the case of this grilled cheese incident, Michele says her husband did NOT hit her and she was never afraid he was going to because he knows James does not want to go back to jail.


James DePaola was charged with obstruction of a 911 call and criminal trespass/damage to property.


We hope he goes back to jail.

JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers: Already Fighting Hardcore!

The Bachelorette’s JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers are already struggling with their newfound engagement, a new report indicates.



No word on whether the turning point came when she woke up and realized she is JoJo Fletcher, and that she is engaged to Jordan Rodgers.


Just kidding. Not really though.


In all seriousness, The Bachelorette spoilers have suggested for months on end that Jordan not only prevails this season, but beyond that:


JoJo Fletcher and her final rose recipient are essentially DOA and while they may talk a good game, they are not long for this world.


In terms of coupledom, that is. Not literally.


They are both young and healthy, as far as we know. At least physically, they are one of the more attractive couples you’ll ever encounter.


What’s going on in their heads, though?



Did she think she would have a chance to meet Clay Matthews (above, with Jordan, in Pitch Perfect 2), or Aaron Rodgers, if he won?


Did she believe that even though he allegedly went on the show to boost his career prospects, he really did fall for her head over heels?


Regardless of whether he went on the show for the right reasons, Rodgers has been dogged by scandal and controversy ever since.


Even in their After the Final Rose sit-down and subsequent media tour, you could tell there were signs of tension between the lovebirds.


They tried to put on a united front, and most of the time they succeeded, but if the gossip blogs and tabloids bother them that much …


… is there more to it?



Yes, JoJo Fletcher’s engagement ring is absolutely mammoth and Jordan penned an open letter to his beautiful bride-to-be on Instagram.


But if anything, that looked like him trying to hard to quiet the haters, and recurring reports of trouble in paradise certainly seem believable.


There are “petty disagreements,” according to one insider, but these arguments suggest bigger trouble for JoJo, who “is really worried.”


“Things are off to an OK start with JoJo and Jordan but it’s all far from perfect,” the source said, noting that it isn’t ALL bad. Yet at least.


She and Jordan “have been very excited and love all the attention, but they do fight and that has JoJo very concerned,” the insider said.


What could they possibly fight about?!



“Their arguments so far have been about petty things and nothing heavy, but the disagreements scare them both,” the source added.


So … not about Brittany Farrar or the fact that Olivia Munn hates him, just the normal day-to-day things couples go at each other about.


Maybe these are just bumps in the road that they will soon overcome together? Another source says don’t stick a fork in the duo yet.


Yes, the couple’s relationship is “far from perfect,” but they have really been focusing on making it work, the insider says, JoJo especially.


Fletcher is “doing her best to trust and love Jordan,” even if she “she still has doubts” … she really wants to “have a fairytale ending.”


Sounds really optimistic, doesn’t it?
