Stefani confirmed that her husband was a great dad in a post she shared on Father's Day. She described him as the most generous, patient, and fun-loving guy. Stefani also showed the extent of her love in the post.
MEET STEFANI'S SONS
Stefani and Gavin were married for 13 years, and in 2015, they called it quits. However, the pair remained amicable as they have focused on co-parenting and nurturing their children.
The "Bling Ring" actor and his ex-wife have combined efforts into raising their kids to their best abilities while they group in the spotlight. Stefani has also been open about learning from her children.
She once made it known that she found out about her dyslexia through her boys. The trio had difficulty reading, and Stefani discovered that she had the same struggles as well.
The "Sweet Escape" singer's oldest son is Kingston, born in 2006. The teenager is becoming aligned with the fashion world. As of 2012, he was on GQ's 30 under 30 most stylish men in Hollywood.
Zuma is the middle child born in 2008. The youngster has his parents' knack for fashion, and like his older brother, he loves outdoor activities. Apollo is the youngest, and his mom adores him so much.
Stefani did not hold back her pride after she announced that her son started kindergarten. Stefani's kids adore Shelton, and according to her, he is a good and helpful dad.
The boys were quite helpful during their mom's wedding as they played a lovely part. During the ceremony, Kingston and his siblings perfectly delivered the bible reading gleaned from the book of Corinthians.
THE ALL IN STEPDAD
The award-winning musicians have been judges on "The Voice" for some years now, and that was where they met. They started dating in 2015 following Stefani's divorce from Gavin.
Shelton has also gone through with a divorce from fellow star Miranda Lambert. He and Stefani announced their engagement in 2020 and tied the knot this year.

Once speaking about being a stepfather, Shelton noted that it was not an easy task. He said that he drew inspiration from having a stepfather himself, which has helped him.
