Gwen Stefani and Bush singer Gavin Rossdale have finally reached a divorce settlement, which has been difficult considering their lack of a prenuptial agreement.
While Rossdale is legally entitled to a 50/50 split due to there being no pre-existing agreement of assets. He has agreed to an unequal split in the divorce so that Stefani can retain more of the funds accrued during their marriage.
The No Doubt singer and the 50-year-old musician have agreed to share 50/50 joint custody of their sons Kingston, nine, Zuma, seven and Apollo, two, but Gavin is likely to have care of them more because of Gwen’s touring schedule.
Gavin is not asking for child support, nor did he press to get a big chunk of his estranged wife’s money made from concert and record sales, TMZ reports.
A judge now needs to sign off on the settlement, which is described as a formality.
Gwen is now dating Blake Shelton and recently admitted she is “grateful” for the end of her marriage.
She said: “It’s super hard to have your family break up.
“I have gone through a lot, but I feel like you have to be grateful for that. Because if I didn’t do that, then I wouldn’t have this. And so you have to be grateful for all of it.”
