Here are some assorted photos of Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale out separately in the past few days. Gwen was out and about in LA solo, and Gavin did a charity tennis match over the weekend, and he was spotted out with his kids and the new nanny a few days ago. I get the feeling that behind the scenes, there’s a lot of sniping and anger between these two. I also think Gwen is playing up her romance with Blake Shelton in the hopes that Gavin will be devastated. He’s not devastated. But he is pissed off to the point where he’s leaking strategic pieces of information to E! News. You can read the full E! piece here. Some highlights:
Gavin is taking the high road. Gavin “is not wanting to say anything publicly right now” and is “trying to take the high road,” according to E!’s source.
He hasn’t spoken to his former mistress of three years, Mindy Mann: “According to a source, the 50-year-old father of three is not in contact with Mindy Mann, the family’s former nanny with whom he was accused of cheating. ‘Gavin hasn’t spoken about her, and I don’t think they’ve spoken in a while,’ notes the source.”
Gavin is moving on. The source says Gavin “has been playing a lot of tennis, has been in out of the studio, trying to focus on what makes him happy…. He wants to be off the radar right now.”
Mindy Mann wants to be off the radar too. Mindy has “gone into hiding” and the source claims, “The last few weeks have been extremely difficult for Mindy. She has been bombarded with media trying to get her to talk about Gavin and the kids and she isn’t wanting to talk. She cares about those kids so much and out of respect for the family wants to keep quiet.”
How Gwen feels. She’s “annoyed” about the media explosion and “Gwen didn’t want the news about the nanny to get out for the sake of her kids. She really wanted to protect them and not have them go through knowing this went on with their father and someone that she trusted. Over the last few weeks, she had begun telling more of her friends what had happened. [But] she is ready to move on and start the next chapter of her life.” Yeah… but I feel pretty certain that Gwen and her media team released the nanny story in the first place.
And finally, E!’s source claims that Gwen probably won’t be down in Oklahoma with Blake for the Thanksgiving holiday. They say that Gwen and Gavin will probably do something together for the kids, but they’ll both emphasize (to the children) that mommy and daddy are no longer together. Yeah, I hated when my parents did that “let’s have a passive aggressive holiday together for the kids” post-divorce. I’ve always thought it’s much easier on the kids to just do everything separately, but that’s just my opinion.
