Gavin Rossdale and Gwen Stefani's son Zuma has had a rough and painful couple of weeks — within a month and a half, he broke both of his arms and had to get stitches.
While chatting with Haute TV's "What's Cooking" vlog, Gavin detailed his 11-year-old son's sudden injuries.
"My little boy, Zuma, he had an accident. He broke his left arm on his bike and got a gash in his leg and got five stitches," the Bush frontman said. "[He] really beat himself up, which is bad enough except that two weeks ago — when we first got here from being not here — in four hours, he fell off a chair and broke his right arm. So now that's just healed and he [breaks] his left arm."
The pre-teen, Gavin said, is "all fixed up" now.
"Basically his right leg is… the only extremity that's safe at this point," the proud dad joked. "[Zuma] is amazing. He's got the kids' Motrin, he does his drugs every six hours to bring the pain down. And he's doing fine. I have to remind him to not lean on his broken arm."
Zuma, he adds, is very resilient.
"He's so brave and he's so strong," Gavin told the Vlog. "He's a really tough kid, I'd be terrified if any of the other kids had to go through what he went through, 'cause he's by far the toughest."
In addition to Zuma, Gavin shares Kingston, 14, and Apollo, 6, with Gwen. The former couple co-parents, which was a struggle in the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic.
In April, Gavin spoke about the kids spending time with him and Gwen.
"I did the first two weeks with them, then they went to Oklahoma. They're on a 10,000 acre ranch," he told Trunk Nation on SiriusXM, referring to Gwen's boyfriend Blake Shelton's home. "It's okay for now and that is a real big dilemma for parents with split custody. You're more mindful of like, I know who's around me — no one. And I know who's bringing me the corona — no one is."
"But, you send your kids out to someone else and they come back to you, and now you're prone to whoever they're with," he continued. "It's a tricky one for all divorced parents."
