Gwen Stefani credits 'first miracle' pregnancy at age 44 to divine intervention

Gwen Stefani turned to Christianity after becoming pregnant at 44.

The Don’t Speak hitmaker, now 56, has recalled having deep conversations with a former “atheist Jew” who converted to Judaism, and those chats started “waking [her] up”.

Speaking to Hallow: Prayer and Meditation on YouTube, she said: “He was studying the Torah, and he had this big epiphany awakening, and he start[ed] talking to me about the Torah.

“I was desperate at this point during all this. I really wanted to have another baby. I really did. I couldn’t, and I was old.”

In 2013, her son Kingston, now 19, asked her for another sibling when he was around 8 years old, and she used to hear him praying for her to conceive.The No Doubt singer told him: “I’m sorry, your mommy is too old to have a baby.”

She recalled: “It was like, four weeks later, and I was pregnant with Apollo. I had him at 44 years old, naturally.”

Gwen – who has sons Kingston, Zuma, 17, and Apollo, 12 with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale – described becoming a mother for a third time as a “full-on gift” and “the first miracle”.
