Gwen Stefani celebrates ‘miracle’ pregnancy that led her to become a ‘real Christian’

"I was desperate at this point,” Stefani said during a recent appearance on "Hallow: Prayer & Meditation," adding at the time, “I really wanted to have another baby. I really did. And I couldn’t; I was old.” The singer said that there was a person in her life who inspired her to shift her worldview about her faith.

“It was waking me up,” Stefani said of the discussions. “And then my oldest boy, Kingston, comes up to me, and he’s like, ‘Mommy, I just, I really want you to have a baby.’ I said, 'I’m sorry, your mommy’s too old to have a baby now.'"

Her son, who was 7 or 8 years old at the time, then started praying that she would be able to have another child. “Please, God, let my mom have a baby," Stefani recalled her son praying at night. She added that he would do so "every night."

“And I was just sitting there going, ‘Wow, look at my little boy. He’s praying for me,'” she added. “I never asked him to do that. I never taught him that, really. I think it was, like, four weeks later, and I was pregnant with Apollo, who I had at 44 years old, naturally, totally a full-on gift."

“And that was the first miracle,” Stefani said.

When she was told that she could "run from God or you can run to God in a situation, and it sounds like you ran to God," the singer replied, “I did. Well, I mean, I wasn’t built to do that.”

“I didn’t know. I was ignorant, like, I didn’t, and I still don’t know enough,” she added. “And it’s almost, like, scary, because the more you know, the more fear you get. Because you realize, like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m running out of time, like, I need to get this together. I gotta be a real Christian. I’m not gonna make it. The narrow door. What am I doing?’ You know?”

As of late, Stefani has been using her Instagram to promote the Catholic prayer app, Hallow, as well as sharing uplifting messages about Jesus Christ.
