Parental pressures

Gwen Stefani is devastated dropping off Apollo at kindergarten this year.

Gwen Stefani is living the life. In her own words, “[…] to be with my best friend Blakey, and to be here with Kelly [Clarkson] and John [Legend], I feel pretty lucky right now.”

Yet, according to People, there’s something that’s “devastating” her. The 49-year-old The Voice coach, who’s in a relationship with singer and The Voice coach, Blake Shelton, opened up to Entertainment Tonight on September 19 about how sad she was to send her youngest son, five-year-old Apollo, off to kindergarten this year.

“I got a baby in kindergarten now and that was devastating. But he’s so excited and he’s doing so well. I got junior high… God gave me all three boys. I’ve always been surrounded by boys,” said the mother of three. In addition to Apollo, Stefani is mum to 13-year-old Kingston and 11-year-old Zuma.

“I didn’t expect to be doing [her Las Vegas residency] and The Voice at the same time,” she told ET. “I just feel like I’m alive in a way I’ve never been before, because I have to be! Because doing both is a lot.”

Stefani recently said in a clip shared exclusively with People that she’s “so happy to be back. My life changed so much on this show.”
