Gwen Stefani finds balancing work and home life a ”nightmare”.
The No Doubt singer would always put raising sons Kingston, five, and three-year-old Zuma – her boys with husband Gavin Rossdale – ahead of her music career if she were forced to choose.
She told Closer magazine: ”I’ve never been able to balance being a mum and my singing career – it’s a nightmare.
”I love my boys, so if there’s a decision to make, they come first.”
Gwen has previously admitted she doesn’t want to ”regret” not spending enough time with her children when they were young.
She said: ”I think what I’d like to do is enjoy these boys while they’re young – so I don’t regret I was working too much when they’re big and don’t want to cuddle me anymore.”
As a parent Gwen – who lives with her family in London – likes to encourage her children to be creative, but admits they sometimes ”horrify” her with their fashion choices.
The ‘Wind It Up’ singer – who has her own fashion line L.A.M.B. – said: ”I like them to be creative and have fun. Sometimes they’ll get dressed and it’s horrifying. But they often come out in outfits that are awesome.”
