After the shocking announcement that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were done after 10 years as husband and wife, comes another one, just as unexpected: Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale are pulling the plug on their 13-year marriage.

“Whereas the 2 of us have come to the mutual determination that we’ll not be companions in marriage, we stay companions in parenthood and are dedicated to collectively elevating our three sons in a cheerful and wholesome surroundings”, they stated.

We remember the highs and lows of their times together.

“It only looks sudden, but everything was worked out months ago so paperwork could be filed and the marriage could be ended quickly and easily”, this source says of Stefani and Rossdale.

Stefani filed her petition citing irreconcilable difference and Rossdale filed a response shortly thereafter, court records show. She has chosen to refuse Rossdale’s spousal support.

Whatever the true reason for their split may be, they are both wanting joint custody over their children, which indicates that they at least ended things amicably.

Reports suggest there’s no prenuptial agreement involved and the couple is expected to split their assets.

“She explained: “[Gavin’s] on a short tour right now, and he wrote me the sweetest note this morning. As such, in the state of California, the community property laws kick in. “It’s good to have those days when we both do our own things”, she said.

“That’s especially important for women”, Stefani added. The site claims Voice coach Gwen’s net worth is $80 million, while her soon-to-be ex-husband stands at an estimated $35 million.

In a statement the pair said they are committed to raising their children together.
