What religion is Gwen Stefani?

Gwen Stefani was raised in a Catholic home and has discussed how faith fuels her life. In an interview with People Magazine, she said, “It’s literally schedule, schedule, schedule. But there is a balance. For me, the only way that I’ve gotten this far is with my spiritual faith and being able to take time out to pray. You see the miracles, and that’s inspiration and fuel to keep it going.” In a seperate interview with the “TODAY Show,” the singer shared how her faith gets her through hardships.

She said, “For me, I was turning to my faith right away. That was a seed my mom planted in me when I was a little girl; it’s a journey. It’s almost like you get lost; it’s like you get lost on your journey. We all do, and we all will, and I will again at some point, I’m sure.”
