In a recent Instagram post, Gavin Rossdale, former husband of Gwen Stefani, surprised fans by introducing his new girlfriend to the public. The striking resemblance between her and Stefani had everyone talking.
It’s been nine years since the breakup of beloved “No Doubt” vocalist, Gwen Stefani, and the lead singer of Bush, Gavin Rossdale. While Stefani has moved on, it seems Rossdale hasn’t — at least in terms of his taste in partners. Rossdale’s Instagram picture with his new girlfriend had fans questioning their eyes. She looked like a “clone” of his ex-wife.
Fans couldn’t help but comment on the uncanny similarities. “She looks like a younger version of Gwen,” wrote one fan. Another added, “He’s got another Gwen.” A user agreed, saying, “Gwen’s twin.”
The side-by-side comparison of the two women reveals everything from sharp cheekbones to platinum blond hair. Even their eye shape and iconic up-do hairstyle are the same. One fan couldn’t help but remark, “For 2 seconds there, I thought that was Gwen lol. He certainly has a type.”
While someone might simply describe it as “having a type,” it’s evident that Rossdale has a soft spot for singers. His new girlfriend, Xhoana, is an LA-based singer-songwriter from Albania. Despite facing the challenges of immigration and adapting to a new country, Xhoana has carved out her own niche in the music industry. However, not all fans were thrilled to see her in the picture. One commented, “I really thought that was Gwen, co-parent style…but then I realized that is a wish version of Gwen…”
It’s important to note that shared parenting is still happening, just not publicly. Stefani and Rossdale have prioritized co-parenting their three children, Kingston (17), Zuma (15), and Apollo (10). In a joint statement, they emphasized their commitment to raising their kids in a happy and healthy environment, despite their decision to end their marriage.
Rossdale himself has spoken about the importance of putting the children first. He highlighted how their shared parenting approach allows their kids to experience “two opposing ways of life.” He believes this exposure to different perspectives is beneficial for their development.
While the details of their breakup remain mysterious, Gwen Stefani has kept the specifics to herself. In an interview, she assured the public that only a select few know what truly happened between her and Gavin Rossdale. She went through months of emotional turmoil but chose to keep the rest of the story private.
As Rossdale starts a new chapter in his love life with Xhoana, it remains to be seen if their physical resemblances to Gwen Stefani will mirror the similarities in their love stories. History has a curious way of repeating itself, and fans are eager to see how this new relationship unfolds.
