When was Gwen married to Gavin Rossdale?

Gwen met Gavin in 1995 when No Doubt and Bush were on tour together.

They got married in 2002 before going their separate ways in 2015.

The couple have three children together (16-year-old Kingston, 14-year-old Zuma and Apollo Bowie Flynn Rossdale, 8), but after 14 years of marriage Gwen filed for divorce, citing "irreconcilable differences" as the cause.

Mindy Mann is an Australian nanny who worked forGwen and Gavin and is rumoured to be the reason the couple split following allegations of cheating.

In March Gavin opened up about the breakdown in his relationship and admitted that the split caused him “a lot of pain and sadness”.

Talking to magazine he revealed: “It really teaches you perspective on life. It's really health, happiness and safety. After that, I don't know what there is other than that."
