Gwen Stefani credits spiritual epiphany for getting pregnant with her third child at 44

Gwen Stefani shared that she had a spiritual epiphany before conceiving her and her ex-husband, Ross Gavindale’s youngest son, Apollo, at the age of 44.

The No Doubt songstress, who is a practicing Catholic, recalled working with a former “atheist Jew” who converted to Judaism during a recent interview with Hallow: Prayer & Meditation.

“He was studying the Torah, and he had this big epiphany awakening, and he start[ed] talking to me about the Torah.”

Gwen Stefani, seen here in March, revealed that she had a spiritual epiphany before getting pregnant with her youngest son at the age of 44.

During an interview with Hallow: Prayer & Meditation, the hitmaker recalled working with a former “atheist Jew” who later practiced Judaism.

“I was desperate at this point during all this,” Stefani, now 56, said. “I really wanted to have another baby. I really did. I couldn’t, and I was old.”

The “Hollaback Girl” singer shared she started having deep conversations with the unnamed man, which were “waking [her] up.”

She explained her now 19-year-old son, Kingston, once approached her, begging for another sibling.

“He was studying the Torah, and he had this big epiphany awakening, and he start[ed] talking to me about the Torah,” she explained.

“I’m sorry, your mommy is too old to have a baby,” Stefani recalled telling her son when he was around 8 years old in 2013.

The “Just a Girl” singer shared she would hear Kingston praying every night for her to conceive.

“It was like, four weeks later, and I was pregnant with Apollo,” she stated. “I had him at 44 years old, naturally,” she said, describing it as a “full-on gift. And that was the first miracle.”

Stefani shares sons Kingston, Zuma, 17, and Apollo, 12, with Rossdale, with whom she was married from 2002 to 2016.

The “Rich Girl” singer, who tied the knot to Rossdale in the Catholic Church, got divorced in 2016 and their marriage annulled by the church in 2021, per Us Weekly.

“It was a huge relief for Gwen because she wanted to get married [to Blake Shelton] by her priest and have the marriage recognized by the Catholic church,” a source told the outlet.
