Gwen Stefani says she would be a supportive parent if one of her sons came out.

The 46-year-old singer has Kington, 9, Zuma, 7, and Apollo, 2, with ex-husband Gavin Rossdale. In an interview with PrideSource, Stefani says having a gay son would be a blessing.

“I would be blessed with a gay son. You know that I would feel blessed about that. I just want my boys to be happy and healthy, and I just ask God to guide me every day to be a good mother because it is not an easy job,” Stefani told PrideSource.

“I just want my kids to be happy, and whatever journey God gives them is their journey. I just need to be there to be the most supportive mom that I can be and that’s what I’m gonna be,” Stefani says.

Stefani has been an advocate for her children not being afraid to express themselves before. Her son Kingston has been spotted wearing girls’ clothing like tutus and Stefani is known to paint her sons’ nails.

Speaking with PrideSource last year, Stefani says her children aren’t afraid to be who they are.

“My sons did nails just the other day, and the only reason was because their nails were so disgusting,” Stefani says.  “We really played ‘Salon’ and we did tiger stripe nails. I said to Kingston, ‘Are you sure you wanna do pink, because you’re gonna go to school tomorrow? Are you sure you’re not gonna be embarrassed?’ He said, ‘No, I don’t care; it’s a cool color.’
