Gwen Stefani calls her 2016 pregnancy with son Apollo at 44 a spiritual "miracle" fueled by her son’s prayers and a faith transformation.

Gwen Stefani, now 56, has said her pregnancy with son Apollo at age 44 was a spiritual milestone she calls a "miracle," sparked by her eldest son Kingston’s nightly prayers for a sibling and meaningful conversations with a former atheist who converted to Judaism. She described the experience as a profound awakening that led her to embrace Christianity and deepen her Catholic faith, despite initial doubts. The natural conception, which occurred after years of fertility struggles and feeling too old, marked a turning point in her personal and spiritual life. Stefani, who has three sons with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale, later married country singer Blake Shelton in 2021, and has since been open about her faith journey, including her partnership with the Catholic prayer app Hallow.
