Gavin Rossdale's Babymama Calls Him a Deadbeat Dad
When word broke that Gavin Rossdale had unknowingly fathered his teenaged Goddaughter, Daisy Lowe, the news reportedly tested his relationship with wife Gwen Stefani. Since then, the pair have only seemed to grow stronger, and have welcomed a child of their own, one-year-old Kingston.
Now, Pearl Lowe, 18-year-old Daisy's mother, has written a book about her adventures in the British rock scene of the nineties, a scene in which Rossdale prominently figured. Interviewed about the tome in The Times, Lowe did not have flattering things to say about the former Bush frontman. Read on for excerpts:
On when she and Rossdale first had an inkling of daughter Daisy's paternity: “Gavin [who was already in Daisy's life as her Godfather] came to me saying I think we need to find this out. But when we set up meetings to have DNA tests he didn’t show up. And it got weird and he stopped returning my calls.”
On Rossdale's absence from Daisy's life since DNA tests taken in 2004 proved he's her father: “This guy’s a millionaire, he can at least give Danny [Lowe's partner and Daisy's father-figure] back the money he’s spent. It’s been a traumatic time for us. I lost my best friend, Daisy lost her godfather and doesn’t have a dad. And she lost self-worth. Because when someone rejects you like that, you wonder what’s wrong with you...When he had his baby with Gwen, Daisy’s half-brother, he didn’t even tell her. She’s never seen the baby. Not to take responsiblity and not to let your daughter even meet her grandparents and see her heritage is pretty sick.”
On whether she'd want to reconcile: I really don’t care if I never see him ever again. He’s been incredibly vile. He saw Daisy at first, but he was always rude to her, he made it feel like it was her fault. It was her 18th birthday and there was no present, no phone call, nothing."
Rossdale's rep could not be reached for comment.
