'He makes really cute babies!' Gwen Stefani reveals the secrets of her marriage to 'hot guy' Gavin Rossdale in sexy Cosmo spread
Gwen Stefani continues to attract the masses with her unique voice and fashion style.
The 45-year-old No Doubt singer has defied the odds where her relationship with rocker Gavin Rossdale concerned as well, as she revealed in the March issue of Cosmopolitan.
Strangely enough, Gwen - who displayed her toned physique on the cover in a star-spangled sheath over a black corset - doesn't think of herself as a sex symbol and even she seems surprised that she was able to land such a 'hot guy.'

No Doubt about it: Gwen Stefani, 45, proved she's still got 'it' in a sexy spread for Cosmopolitan's March issue, due out on newsstands February 10
'I never really saw myself landing a guy that hot,' Gwen told Cosmoplitan of her 49-year-old husband of 12 years. 'I don’t know if I was a nerd in high school, but I definitely wasn’t the super-cute cheerleader.
'So I never saw myself getting somebody like that. But I do think he’s quite handsome. It’s not the most important thing about him, but it is nice… and he makes really cute babies!'
Mother-of-three Gwen has nothing to worry about in her own looks department, and if her cover shot isn't enough to convince her she's got 'it,' then the inside photo of her should.
Secrets: The Hollaback Girl singer admitted even she's surprised that she landed 'hot guy' Gavin Rossdale as a husband, revealing the secret of their longevity lies in allowing each other space to be individuals
The Hollaback Girl singer was seen in a tiny black crop and black trousers that put her amazingly ripped abs and arms on display.
The platinum-haired beauty - who grew up in northern Orange County, California - went on to say that her successful marriage comes from allowing each other space.
And of course, a dash of sentiment here and there goes a long way.
Romantic: Gavin helps to keep the sparks alive by sending love notes to his wife, who told Cosmo: 'He wrote me the sweetest note this morning'; the couple was pictured in 2013
A plus: Gwen gushed that Gavin is so handsome, adding: 'It’s not the most important thing about him, but it is nice… and he makes really cute babies!'; the pair enjoyed an outing with two of their sons in 2014
'We go through so much together - it’s a miracle that we could stay together this long,' Gwen told Cosmoplitan. '[Gavin’s] on a short tour right now, and he wrote me the sweetest note this morning.
'It’s good to have those days when we both do our own things. I think that’s what keeps relationships going, when both people can be themselves and have their own individuality.
'That’s especially important for women - it’s hard to find time for yourself.'
The couple - who met on tour in mid-1995 - tied the knot in September 2002 in two wedding extravaganzas, one at St. Paul's Cathedral, London, and another one two weeks later in Los Angeles.
Popular: Gwen, pictured on a solo outing to the acupuncturist on January 26, said of fame: 'It still shocks me that people care about me. I trip out about it all the time. It’s mind-blowing!'
They are the parents of three sons, Kingston, eight, Zuma, six, and Apollo, who turns one on February 28.
Gwen, who enjoyed a stint on season seven of The Voice, is releasing her third studio solo album this year and even she's shocked that fans are listening to her music.
'My parents taught us, "[music] is your hobby. People don’t make it. It just doesn’t happen." It still shocks me that people care about me. I trip out about it all the time. It’s mind-blowing!
'For me, I’ve never gotten to a point where I felt, "Okay, I’ve made it, I’m number one!" It’s an amazing feeling to hit number one, but it’s not that different a feeling from not being number one.
'It’s really about the journey - that’s where the joy comes. It’s not about the end result, because there isn’t really ever an end.'
