Gavin Rossdale’s 5-year gay affair with Marilyn. You read correctly - Gavin was supposedly in a gay relationship for the long term!  But it was denied and not revealed until now, when he is happily married to Gwen Stefani.  Or was.  Do you think she cares about this since it was in the past?

I wonder why this news is suddenly “breaking” again?  Does Marilyn have something to promote or sell and needs the attention?  Gavin certainly doesn’t.  From InTouch Weekly:

As In Touch has learned, Gavin had a long-standing secret love affair with Marilyn — a male rocker who looked remarkably like Gwen. “He was the love of my life,” Marilyn tells In Touch.

Though Boy George broke the news of Gavin, 43, and Marilyn’s tumultuous romance in his 1995 book, Take It Like a Man, Gavin denied it, stating, “I wasn’t dating Marilyn. We were, and still are, good friends.” At the time, Marilyn denied the affair, as well. But today he says he did it only because Gavin asked him to. “He was just becoming successful in America,” Marilyn explains. “I agreed to lie against every grain of my being.”

I hope if this is true that Gwen doesn’t care.  If the relationship was in the past, who cares.  Most people do have pasts before they get married, just not same sex ones.  What do you think of the validity of this story?
