Prior to dating Blake, Gwen was married to Gavin, 54, for almost 13 years before their split after he allegedly had an affair with the family’s longtime nanny. During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres show, the singer broke down in tears over their messy split.

During their conversation, Ellen alluded to Gwen’s past few tumultuous years. “Gwen, you know, she deserves everything she has. She deserves this love, she deserves the life that she has, and the career. Because she went through a lot,” Ellen, 62, explained. “now I’m crying on TV, too,” Gwen responded, quickly overcome with tears. “I love you, and I hated to see what you were going through, and you didn’t deserve it,” Ellen told her, presumably referring to her divorce.
