Gavin Rossdale says his wife Gwen Stefani finds pregnancy "tough".

Gwen, who already has a two-year-old son Kingston with the rocker, has been feeling very tired as she copes with the demands of expecting her second child.

He said: "It was difficult at first. Gwen really wasn't well and it was tough for her. She was just really tired and was suffering, which is kind of sad in a way. I mean, isn't it enough that nature distorts your body and stretches and squashes your organs?"

However, Gavin insists Gwen is now coping much better since she has reached her third trimester. Gavin added to New! magazine: "She is really blossoming now and she's in a great space. I'm just trying to be right there for her and trying to help her through it. It's not easy to be pregnant."

He also said his wife - a fashion icon and clothes designer as well as a pop star - is set on regaining her pre-pregnancy figure once the baby is born, saying: "She does feel pressure. I mean, she's just so dedicated and she's just amazing with that stuff. It's very hard because everyone's so judged the whole time."

Gavin also has another child, 18-year-old model Daisy Lowe, with fashion designer Pearl Lowe - news which only came to light after a paternity test in 2004.
