Back in April, No Doubt played together for the first time in nine years at the Coachella music festival. Singer Gwen Stefani reflected on the reunion in a new interview.

“Performing at Coachella and feeling all that love for us after all this time was kind of overwhelming,” she said. “We hadn’t done anything together for so long, so to do that and be there for each other, with all of our families, meant so much to me.”

“It had been so long but it was as if we had never been apart,” she added.

Stefani also opened up about the reunion during an interview with NME in October. “The No Doubt thing was so crazy. It’s not like we made a decision to not do anything, or not hang out or talk,” she said at the time. “Everybody’s lives just happened. You know, the time we stopped [in 2015] was when I was going through my horrible family breakup – I don’t like to say the word ‘divorce,’ because it’s just such a disgusting word. But my life just blew up, it really did.”

“A lot of people are like, ‘Why did it take so long [for No Doubt to reform]?’ But when you have a family, eight years goes by like that," she continued. "To heal from what happened, I mean it’s still happening, I’m still trying to get through it.”

Stefani also teased that No Doubt is “gonna do something again at some point”, but “it just has to be the right thing that makes sense [with] all of our schedules.” She released her fifth solo album, Bouquet, last month.
