Are Gavin Rossdale’s Girlfriend and Ex-Wife Doppelgängers?

The uncanny resemblance between Gavin Rossdale’s girlfriend, Xhoana X, and his ex-wife, Gwen Stefani, has been a topic of discussion recently. Even Hoda Kotb pointed out the striking similarities between the two women during a segment on “Today with Hoda and Jenna.” Kotb admitted that she initially mistook Xhoana X for Stefani in recent vacation photos of the couple in Mexico, a sentiment that was echoed by co-host Jenna Bush Hager.

Kotb humorously suggested that Rossdale has a specific type when it comes to his choice in women, given the similar appearance between his current and former partners. Bush Hager added that the resemblance goes beyond physical features, noting that the women have a similar style of dressing, identical red lipstick, and even share the same blond hairstyle. This observation led to a discussion about whether it is merely a coincidence or if Rossdale intentionally seeks out women who resemble Stefani.

While Bush Hager viewed the situation as flattering for Stefani, Kotb disagreed, stating that it would be uncomfortable to see your ex dating someone who looks like a doppelgänger of yourself. The discussion highlighted the complexities of navigating relationships and breakups in the public eye, especially when physical similarities between current and former partners are so apparent.

The conversation about the striking similarities between Xhoana X and Stefani arose after pictures of Rossdale and his girlfriend surfaced online. The couple, who have been dating since 2023, made their relationship Instagram official in March 2024. Despite the comparisons to Rossdale’s ex-wife, Xhoana X and the rocker appeared happy and affectionate during their vacation in Cabo San Lucas.

Rossdale and Stefani were previously married from 2002 to 2016 and share three children together. Following their divorce, Stefani found love with Blake Shelton, whom she married in 2021. The juxtaposition of Stefani’s past and present relationships alongside Rossdale’s new romance with Xhoana X adds another layer of intrigue to the ongoing discussion about their similar appearances.
