GWEN STEFANI got surprisingly emotional during an appearance on a British talk show in late June. The singer was chatting about the U.K. stops on her current tour when the hosts played a video from iconic ska musician Pauline Black wishing Gwen well. “Wow, I’m shaking,” the visibly moved star said as she wiped away tears. Viewers were left shocked by the unexpected breakdown, but a source tells Star the “Hollaback Girl” singer has been especially fragile lately. “The smallest thing sets her off.”
According to the source, Gwen, 53, is on edge because of tension brewing between her and her husband of two years, country music superstar Blake Shelton. The former coaches on The Voice are being pulled in different directions as Blake, 47, focuses on his game show, Barmageddon, and Gwen is busy touring. “Times are tough for Gwen and Blake,” says the source. “They’re spending a lot of time apart and the relationship is suffering. Friends are worried that if they don’t address their problems before they spiral out of control, divorce might be in the cards for them.”
